Type problem with InDesign, especially CC.

Hi. I'm experiencing a type problem with InDesign, especially CC. When I open a type box, the cursor appears in the top right hand corner. I can correct that by selecting 'range left' but when I paste or type in my copy, the final period of each paragraph appears at the beginning of the last line. This is drivning me up the wall as I can find a way of correcting it.
Any ideas to solve this problem?
Thanks

Are you using a MENA (Middle East North Africa, Hebrew, Arabic, Farsi, …) version? Then restting woul not help.
If not, you have to create a new document with the same Paragraph, Character and Object Styles (name should be identical) and import them into the other document to overwrite these style oddities.
If you are working without styles? Create correct new styles and apply them.
I doubt that resetting preferences will change here anything as paragraph properties from any existing document will not be changed when working with new preferences.

  • Printing problems with InDesign CS3 running on OS 10.6

    I recently upgrade my old G4 Mac (OS 10.4) to a new Mac Mini running OS 10.6.6. I am still running CS3 and have encountered only one problem. When I print multiple copies documents from InDesign that contain several layers, each copy is processed separately, so that it can take several minutes just to send the print job to the printer if I'm printing over 20 copies. Then once the print job is processed the printer pauses between every copy, which is tripling the printing time. If I print a simpler document with only one or two layers it processes all the copies at once, as it should. I am printing on an Okidata 6150 color laser printer.
    I never had this problem on my old computer. I'm wondering if this is one of the "unsupported" bugs of running CS3 on Snow Leopard. I want to make sure that this is a problem unique to running CS3 with Snow Leopard before I go ahead and upgrade to CS4 or CS5.
    computer: Mac Mini core 2 duo 2.4 ghz processors, 4 gb RAM, printer: Okidata 6150 DN color laser printer.

    Hi again Peter
    It is version 5.0.4.  I updated it when I newly installed it a week ago in my new computer, and then again updated it just yesterday.
    I might mention that before I got my new computer, I was running Mac OS 4.11, and was using InDesign 3.0.  I had bought InDesign CS3 about a year ago, but hadn't gotten around to using it since version 3.0 had been working fine, and I was used to it.  Then, when I got my new computer, I decided it was time to use the newer version.  However, while using InDesign 3.0 with the old Mac OS 4.11, a printing problem popped up there, too, a few months ago... and it also involved printing problems with Adobe Reader.  I contacted Adobe, and they sent me a patch which fixed it.  I will contact Adobe again if need be, although I thought I'd start here first to see if it was a common enough problem that someone might be able to provide a free and routine answer.

    I neglected to ask what version of indesign CS3 you are using. I also 
    notice that Mac OSX 10.6.4 has just been released. It actually 
    addresses some CS3-specific issues, though they seem to be related to 
    launching the apps, not printing. It may be worth trying to update, 
    nonetheless.

  • I have a problem with indesign cs6 and my epson 3880 on mac

    I have a problem with indesign cs6 and my epson 3880 on mac.  I need an older version of indesign but do not have a serial number....any suggestions?

    I see then I believe Kglad's advice is on track with starting with updating your printer drivers.  I have also moved this discussion over to the InDesign forum as the Users in this forum likely have additional suggestions.
    Also if you can please turn off your e-mail signature if you want to respond via e-mail.  Your responses are going to a public forum where the information is accessible by anyone.  I have edited your previous response to remove the signature.

  • Problem with InDesign CC redrawing the screen too slow while using Zoom tool

    Hello. I got a problem with InDesign CC redrawing the screen too slow while using Zoom tool. Sometimes it takes more than a secong to zoom in or out. However InDesign CS6, Photoshop CC, Illustrator CC works just fine. What could be the problem, videocard or something else? Below is my PC configuration: OS Windows 8 Pro (x64); processor Intel Core i7 2600k CPU 3,40GHz; video adapter NVIDIA GeForse GTS 450; monitor NEC PA271W (2560x1440).

    Yes it’s a bug. The trick is to select the tool and then left click the photo information strip and hold for a few seconds until you see the windows bar at the top of the screen (not responding)
    The lasso tool should then work normally.

  • Printing problems with InDesign CS3 with Mac OS 10.6.3

    I am not new to InDesign... I have CS3... but I am brand new to Mac Snow Leopard (OS 10.6.3).  Although I can open CS3 and use the application, I cannot print with it.  None of my other applications has printing issues... just CS3.  Any suggestions?

  • Problem with Indesign CC 2014 and tables

    Problem with Indesign CC 2014 and tables. The text rearranges itself when I delete or add something in a table; the footnotes to the text associated with the overlap even getting unreadable. Just click on the chain symbol in the window and everything is fine. Why?

  • Problem with InDesign CS6 start (without internet)

    Hello,
    I have a problem with the start of InDesign CS6 linked to the presence or absence of internet.
    I need to set an IP without internet on the Mac where I installed InDesign, but when I do it right after the splash screen the program freezes for a few minutes, after which starts.
    With internet this problem does not occur.
    I have already activated the CS6 both online and offline, but the problem continues.
    I need to open something on firewall?
    Can you help me?
    Thanks in advance

    You need to tell us more about what you are doing. Once activated, ID should not require internet access to run unless it needs to verify the subscription status.

  • Tools problem with Indesign

    I have just bought and installed CS6 Master Collection. I have problem with tools. I can't use black and white arrow. They looks gray in toospalet.
    Without those it is very difficult to do anything. Do somebody have had same problem?

    Windows? See InDesign tools and panels don't respond to mouse clicks (Windows 7/Vista)

  • Problem with Indesign CS3 missing save as dialog box

    I am having problems saving documents with Indesign CS3. I have upgraded it to the latest version, repaired permissions, shut down a restarted to no avail. This is Indesign CS3 running on a Macbook under Leopard 10.5.2. You can select save and it appears to save a file. However, if you select "save as", the dialog box to select a location never comes up. Nothing seems to happen. I can't figure it out, and it happens to any file. I have created test files and the same thing happens.
    Help!!!

    Trash preferences before re-installing. Also, try this weird procedure: open the equivalent dialog in one of the other Suite products on the same computer (assuming they're there). That's been known to solve the problem on Windows machines.

    I think there's a problem with tablemodel.rpln...but I have no clue how to fix it. Please answer ASAP, 'cause I'm in a deadline for one job I'm working on. Thanks in advance!
    The rest of the docs are alright,  but this particular is making me a problem. I tried to reinstall the InDesign, but it freezed, and now happens the same thing. I guess reinstalling didn't give any results.

    Not many reports of troble related to Bitstream Font Navigator, but it wouldn't hurt to disable it temporarily to see if it makes a difference.
    You should also create a new user account as a test and try running ID in that.
    I can look at the file tomorrow -- I'm about to quit for tonight. Click my name to go to my profile and you can send me a link using a Private Message.

  • Problem with indesign & acrobat cannot saved files on server : file already open-

    About the problem of Christina
    It's the same for us with Indesign and also with Acrobat. The problem comes from Adobe. They do not understand that we work on server. They tHink that we must work in local and after save files on server. That's totally crazy when you are saverall to work on the same file at different time of the day. How could you know that you work on the right file?
    Please, ADOBE, could you solved this problem?

    You need Adobe Drive, which helps to connect with DAM systems. AFAIK, Adobe does not supply DAM systems though.
    More about it, here: http://www.adobe.com/es/products/adobedrive.html

  • Experiencing display problems with InDesign CC under Windows 8.1

    I have recently installed Adobe InDesign CC, and have experienced problems with the screen display when running it including pixelated icons and tool bars, in addition to text and image boxes that float whilst hovering over them with the cursor.
    I have not experienced similar problems with any of the other Adobe programs installed.
    Thank you.

    No, but I just managed to sort the problem out. I ran the compatibility troubleshooter, and the program is now running in the compatibility mode for Windows 8, and everything appears to be OK now.
    Thank you for your time and feedback.
