Which OS version?

How much RAM and spare disk capacity do you have?

Try resetting the InDesign preferences to see if that helps:

1) Close InDesign
2) Double click on Adobe InDesign's icon to launch it
3) QUICKLY hold down Ctrl+Alt+Shift. (for Windows) or CTL+OPT+CMD+Shift (for Mac OS X)
4) When a dialog appears, ask you “Delete InDesign Preference Files?” Click Yes.

(If you don't see the question do it again.)

It might be worth uninstalling InDesign, using the drop-down menu in the Creative Cloud app and reinstalling. If that doesn't work try Adobe Cleaner Tool: https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/cc-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html

 


Thanks again,

 

I've done all the process and it's still doing the beach ball every step I do.
