I'm on a Mac platform. Try this: Go to "Window" in the menu bar. If "Application Frame" option is checked, click it to uncheck it.Then check "Application Bar."

The problem:

The Application Bar cannot be selected (grey-out) in 2019 InDesign CC (14.0.1) on my macOS Mojave (10.14.2 (18C54) 

Both Application Frame (black text and on-screen working) and Application Bar (greyed-out and not on screen) are checked.Surely if they are both ticked it's a software error?

I to have recently updated my Mac version of Adobe InDesign CC 2019 to discover that Application Bar is grey-out.
Why have Adobe not sorted out this problem since you reported it on 23 October 20i8, its now 22 January 2019.
It's a damn nuisance as prefer the bar and do not like the frame. I'm paying almost £50 a month for InDesign and
Photoshop – Get your finger out Adobe!

Hi Terry,

The OP never came back to us in October, so we don’t know if it was resolved or not. Please provide a screenshot as amaarora asked in this thread: Application bar greyed out in Indesign 2019

This forum is for helping users with questions about how to use the software. Please check this thread at UserVoice, the second forum dedicated to bug reports and feature requests:

InDesign CC2019 - blank control panel – Adobe InDesign Feedback

If it’s the same issue, it was fixed in 14.0.1. Which version are you using? If it’s older, please update. If it’s the same, please report it at UserVoice.

I think I'm having the same issue and I don't think anyone has supplied a screen shot. Here's what I am seeing.


Problem solved!  Click on 'Control' in Window just needed to be turned on, hey presto, the Application Bar appears.
