InDesign wont save/update file on a server (ok on desktop). Since Big Sur upgrade.

[J-Duguid]

Hi All,

I am experiencing issues where InDesign won't save/update file on our work server since Big Sur (V 11.4) upgrade (this did NOT occur on Catalina). Requires me to "save as" file to save any new changes, and will not overwrite current file or old file. I have also updated InDesign to the latest version (16.3.1), and have tried saving as an IDML but have not found anything to work. 

This doesn't happen with Photoshop or Illustrator, although I have also noticed there is some lag in saving files for these programs. 

Has anyone experienced this, and have a solution for fixing it (other than reverting back to Catalina).

Many thanks.

You could try resetting your InDesign preferences.

Delete InDesign preferences with shortcuts

You can delete the replaceable InDesign SaveData and InDesign Defaults files by holding down the following keys while InDesign is launching:

• Windows: Shift+Ctrl+Alt
• Mac OS: Shift+Control+Option+Command

===================

If that isn't working

You could try the Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool.

To be honest, sounds like an issue with your server and big sur.

Not entirely sure though.
