Empty panels are indicative of corrupt preferences. Resetting them is the way to fix it.

My suggestion is to work through the post in order. Try the keyboard shortcut. Did it work? If so, great! Back to work.

 

If not, continue with deleting/renaming the files and folders outlined in the bottom half of the post.

Hi Bob - Thank you for responding - I am going to try and do this, always super nervous about deleting stuff, praying InDesign works afterwards! Which way do you suggest workes better, trying the keyboard shortcut or doing it manually?
