Where's the grabber hand and zoom shortcuts in the InDesign 14.0 Update for Mac?

Until I updated last week to InDesign CC 14.0, I was used to being able to hit Command-Spacebar to zoom in and out by dragging. I was also able to hit Spacebar to bring up the grabber hand to drag the layout around. Now these are both GONE, and I've been trying to figure out how to get them back to no avail. HELP! These were keyboard shortcuts that worked only while holding them down--they weren't the kind of keyboard commands that SELECT the Hand Tool or Zoom Tool.

It sounds like there may be some other app on your computer that is also using this shortcut and is preventing it from working in InDesign. Try rebooting your computer and only launching InDesign and see if it works agin in InDesign. If it does then launch other apps one at a time until you find the one that is conflicting.

Looks like a hard reboot fixed it. Had tried quitting and relaunching and closing all other apps but that had not worked...everything short of rebooting but oddly enough, these functions were working fine yesterday, and I had not shut down from yesterday. Well, it's working now, at least. Thanks Bill!
