I've found this to be an issue ever since I first started using indesign 3 years ago, and its' occurrence is rare so there has to be a reason behind it happening. How come sometimes when shift selecting objects, other random objects that you have already selected will unselect themselves? For example, I am selecting 4 random objects on my spread, I select 1, then 2, then 3, then 4, and object 2 unselects itself when I selected object 4?

Yes. It's been like that for awhile. You can report this as a bug at: Feature Request/Bug Report Form .

Are you using the group selection tool (black arrow) or the direct selection tool (the white arrow)? I've seen similar results to yours when using the direct selection tool but not with the group selection tool.
