When you made the new document to try, did you move content from the old doc, or just add some placeholder text or objects? If the former, it could be the content. If the latter, and you're sure you are exporting to a volume that you have access to, you could try resetting your preferences.

May I assume that you didn't move content from the problem document to the test document, and that any new document, regardless of what's on the page will fail to export to PDF? Can you go to InDesign>About InDesign and tell us what version number you're using. Also, what computer and OS version will also help. And FYI, if it's a newer Mac with the new M1 chip, I can't say for sure that InDesign is patched to operate fully with your computer.

One way to isolat the problem is to "divide and conquer." Try exporting half the file at a time. If either half fails, divived it similarly. Continue until you have isolated a page.

 

Now move objects, half at a time, to the pasteboard and export. Continue as above tgo isolate a problem object.
