Can not select text

Community Beginner ,
Jul 16, 2023 Jul 16, 2023

I am brand new to InCopy so this might just be user error - in that case please forgive my stupidity. I ahev already looked at the InCopy help but could not find a solution. 

I have opened an INDD file in InCopy. I need to be able to select the text so I can translate it and enter the translated text back into the file. I have tried using the type tool to grab the text, but the moment I click anywhere on the screen with text, it jumps back to the position pool. I also tried to switch to Galley view, but nothing happens.  

Please advise. What am I doing wrong? Screenshot 2023-07-16 163400.jpg

It does not appear that there is any InCopy content in that file. The InDesign user must export that content for use in InCopy.
