I've been working with an indesign file for a few weeks. Everything was fine, but then I opened it and all of the tools were grayed out. I am not able to select anything, and do any more work on the file. How do I fix this?
I have already tried restarting my computer, restarting my program, and picking an older saved version of what I am working on.
Thanks
That's very odd. Did you try trashing preferences?

Resulved this issue by selecting a different workspace. The work space I was in "Essentials Classic" already had all the tools in the tool bar with most of them hidden behind other tools.
