whenever I create a new text box, there is automatically a 1p0 text wrap around it. how do I disable this from happening? thanks
whenever I create a new text box
I'm not clear from the wording if this is happening in one file, or all new files. Clearly text wrap was turned on as a default, but it could be in one file (a document default) or for all new files (a system default).
This article should clarify the two, and give you the skills to disable one or both.

Select the (text) frame and go to Window > Wrap and click on the none-button.
But you should work with Object Styles and make sure that your default styles have no text wrap upon them. Default styles are those with one of the two small icons on the right.
To avoid text wrap for a single text frame go to Object > Text Frame Options (or in the context menu or cmd/ctrl+B) and activate to ignore text wrap. Save this also in the Object Styles.

This is a simple one to do it. Start up your Indesign but do not open any document or new document, just click on the text box in the toolbar and press Ctrl+Alt+W (Text wrap), a text wrap dialog box will appear on that set to none (no text wrap). Now open up a new document and see is it disable or not.
Thanks

I have tried all these things and all the text box wrap is turned off and I said ignore text wrap in the text frame options and nothing works everytime I move a text box it will jump all over the place like the wrap is on it is super annoying and this is making my spacing all f'ed up. I also turned off snap so that not it either.

Sounds like Align to Baseline Grid. This is a paragraph setting.

Can you post some screenshots? While I'm leaning toward the baseline grid as well, those screenshots would help.

One of the screenshot should be of the Text Wrap panel with nothing selected.
A second should be the View Options controls so we can see what is checked. “View Options” is one of the three buttons on the Control panel that you see when you have the Selection tool.

Where do you see the setting that says your new text frames have a 1p0 text wrap?

Is this for all new documents or existing ones? Whether it's a text wrap or baseline issue, you have to figure out where the default is (all new docs or a current doc?). If all new ones are doing it, as said above, you need to reset it with no document open. If it's just a specific file or files, then reset with no object selected with the specific file open.

Literally none of this worked, and I can't get it to stop. I cannot select anything in the text wrapping before I open documents for defaults, and it doesn't allow me to change those settings once I've opened a new document. Does anyone have any idea? I'm working on a Mac.

I was having this problem as well and the below worked for me. It was happening in just one of my documents. This is from the link provided above .Adobe InDesign: Setting (and Removing) Defaults - Rocky Mountain Training Thanks!
