What operating system?
What version of InDesign?
What image types, some types, like large PSD files, or even tiny Jpegs, or is it PDF or Illustrator files?
One step that is common fix is to reset your preferences

Give the reset preferences a go - instructions and link in my last post.
Is it all files or just this file?
Just that file - use File>Export and choose IDML - and open that IDML file in InDesign (File>Open)

I will try saving as IDML for the file.
If I do the Preference Reset- what actually will happen?

Any custom preferences you have may be lost.
You can back it up before if you like

But restoring preferences is the no.1 option when something is not working as expected.

The IDML did not work- still really slow importing images in.

It's probably server lag - what have your IT said?
Try copying the files locally and see if the problem desists. If it works fine on your desktop, then it's probably some server setting.

Good point there.
Copying linked files from a network location to the local machine won't automatically relink to the local copies.
