Hi all:
In a bit of a pickle with InDesign - hoping a kind soul has an answer as all my college project finals are within this program.
Boot up InDesign, no issues. Can edit and manipulate everything perfectly. HOWEVER, if I toggle between ID and Google Chrome, when I come back to Indesign, the program freezes my entire computer. No spinning wheel of death, complete freeze until I manually shut it down. **This also happens after I apply edits, save the InDesign file, and exit the program. The program freezes as it shuts down.
Yes, reinstalled it.
No, no viruses that I know of... no shenanigans of downloading weird things.
Unsure what it is, but would love to fix it to edit these final projects!
Please help!
If you have a Mac with an Intel GPU, turn off the GPU. In InDesign, this is in Preferences > GPU Performance. Uncheck GPU Performance.

I have been having the same issue recently with my Macbook Pro. I wasn't sure if it was InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator or all three being the culprit as I switch back and forth between the programs. I'm also not the only one having the issue recently as a couple of friends also asked the same question last night.

Does your entire computer freeze up or just the program? I am growing furious at Adobe because there is nothing I can do/look up that will fix it.

Yes! The entire computer freezes up and I have to manually shut down. It's been the past week or two that it has been happening.
