InDesign stalling on launch on macOS Catalina

[AnnDesign]

Since installing Catalina on my old iMac (late 2012) nothing of the Creative Cloud has worked properly. Before that everything did. Indesign just stalls at startup. Tried installing / uninstalling, resetting preferences, and other things I found online.  I wish I could solve this. In the meantime I work with my Macbook Pro, but I just love my old machine 😞 I need help.

Hi there,

Sorry to hear about your experience. All available versions of Adobe InDesign(v2020 & 2021) within Creative Cloud desktop app are compatible with macOS Catalina & Big Sur.

I'd recommend following the suggestions given on this community post & let us know if they help improving the performance of the app. Hope it helps.

Regards,

Ashutosh
