InDesign

[Matthew27461205r6to]

Hi, I need your help.  I save my InDesign files to my desktop computer. When I open the files, all the photos start to disappear and I get colored lines in place of the photos. I keep all of the linked photos in the same folder that InDsign file is saved. Can you help me understand why this is happening?   I do not want to drop the photos back into the layout as there are too many to drop back into the entire mulit-paged layout. Thank you so much! Cheers, Matt

If you are using a Mac, turn off GPU performance in the prefs.

If you are on a Mac, make sure your Adobe apps still have Full Disk Access under your System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Full Disk Access. Recent OS updates have been known to reset these settings, and your symptoms are indicative of this.

This worked for me. Thanks!

Are you working off a remote/external location or cloud service?

I've seen this before when users were accessing from Dropbox or Google Drive.

Is this photo-files not corrupted and all ok?

Hi there - I have this problem and I'm working off creative cloud and using files located on drop box - It doesn't seem like the top answer can help me. Is this likely to be linked to Dropbox working? Please help! Arrrrgh!
