After multiple restarts and shutdowns, the Spacebar will not operate as a shortcut for the Hand Tool and holding down the Shift button has no effect on movements, as it should keep 45 degree increments. How can I fix this ASAP? Thank you.
Hi there,
Sorry to hear about this trouble. Could you please confirm the operating system and exact version of InDesign you are working on? When did this start happening? Are there any recent changes made to your system? For example, any antivirus, system updates or web extensions installed recently.
You may also try resetting InDesign preferences. Unexpected behavior in application can be caused due to corrupt/ damaged preferences. Please follow these steps and share your observations with

Hi there,
Sorry to hear about this trouble. Could you please confirm the operating system and exact version of InDesign you are working on? When did this start happening? Are there any recent changes made to your system? For example, any antivirus, system updates or web extensions installed recently.
You may also try resetting InDesign preferences. Unexpected behavior in application can be caused due to corrupt/ damaged preferences. Please follow these steps and share your observations with us:
For Windows
For MAC
Please note that resetting preferences will remove all the custom settings and InDesign will launch with default settings. This way all your old settings will be saved in .old folders and InDesign will recreate new folders with default settings.
Let us know if this helps resolving the issue or if you have any further questions.
Regards,

I'd love some further guidance here.
I re-installed the CC app to my Big Sur 11.2.3 system, went through the steps advised above and it is still not working.
Help! 🙂

Oh no! Try booting the system into Safe Mode (https://helpx.adobe.com/in/x-productkb/global/start-safe-boot-mode-mac.html) and check how it works there. It starts your system so that it performs certain checks and prevents third party software/ services from automatically loading or opening. If it works fine in Safe mode, then there is some third party service or application like antivirus, plugins or web extensions which are conflicting with the InDesign.
If that doesn't help either, login to root account (https://support.apple.com/en-in/HT204012). Check how application works there. If it works fine there, then it could be related to permission errors. Follow these steps to repair permission errors:

The problem for me has to do with Microsoft Word or Excel. If I am noticing the problem, and quit Word, it is fixed, but I can relaunch Word and the problem does not return, so more investigation is needed.

I'm having the same issue without any MS applications open.
