MacOSX 10.14.6 unable to create folder when saving file using shortcut (ID16.0.1)

[jacodejong]

The new version of Indesign 2021 is unable to create a folder anywhere on my computer or on the networkserver from the saving dialogue using the shortcut cmd-shift-N. This happened before with the 2020 version of Illustrator. I have updated my version of Indesign to the latest version.

The button for new folder works, the shortcut doesn't. Please fix this simple thing please Adobe.

What Operating System?
System Specs?

As mentioned in the title: MacOSX 10.14.6 on a 2014 iMac. System specs do not really apply since this is a software fault.

Sorry about that _ I scrolled down and missed that part as it was hidden!OOPS

Is InDesign compatible with BigSur?

• InDesign 16.0 and above versions are compatible with Big Sur (macOS 11).
• InDesign 15.X and earlier versions have not been tested for compatibility with Big Sur (macOS 11).

This question does not relate to compatibility for Big Sur. There are valid reasons people do not upgrade their system to the latest versions (for instance: Metal starting from 10.15).

Lets open this dialog again.. I have the same issue about this shortcut and seriously missing it. @Eugene Tyson  on my 10.14.6 OS and with up to date Indesign, the cmd+shift+n is not working in the "Save As" in Indesign. Has there been any news or results regarding an update or fix for this issue? 

[jacodejong]

So, after a new update for Indesign (it's now at 16.2)  i was truly hoping this issue would be addressed. Unforunately nothing happened and this bug is still in Indesign. So Adobe, will this ever be fixed? I hope to hear from one of you.

@Eugene Tyson  Small but really usefull shortcuts matter ✊

Don't know I am getting tagged in all these.

Common fixes - 

Rebuilding the preference files

1. (Windows) Start InDesign, and then immediately press Shift+Ctrl+Alt. Click Yes when asked if you want to delete preference files. ...
2. (Mac OS) Start InDesign, and then immediately press Shift+Option+Command+Control. Click Yes when asked if you want to delete preference files.

I also don't know why you are tagged, it's not me anyway, maybe because of your your first response.

But, regarding resetting the prefs: that does not work. If things were that easy...

Well - need a lot more info to take it further.

There is the Creative Cloud Cleaner tool -

But probably need specifics on exactly what is happening.
