Graphic border from linked Illustrator file offset

I'm new to InDesign as well as this forum. I'm an old PageMaker, Quark user so indulge my ignorance, please.

When I bring in a graphic .eps file from Illustrator, or just use the text tool in InDesign, the bounding box or border around those elements are perfectly aligned with the graphic/text. Then after several moments working in the file, or closing the file and reopening, the border is offset from the graphic or text element about 1/4" to the right, and about 1/16" below.
It seems to print just fine, but on the screen I can't resize correctly or place elements correctly because the onscreen image is offset.

Has anyone else had any problems with this?
I also have problems with my refresh/redraw (which may be associated to the other problem, I don't know). I make a move on my screen and the images that I have set to Display Performance/High Quality Display appear rasterized terribly with even gaps in the image until I refresh or enlarge and decrease the size.

I'd appreciate any help or suggestions. Thanx.
 
HELLLO, Hello, hello... (echo sounds)...anyone out there?...I'm still having this same issue. Am I the only one?
I'd appreciate any help/suggestions anyone may have.

I'm having the same problem...haven't been able to find any sort of solution in the last few weeks...It used to happen very rarely and when it did it would go away after restarting InDesign. Now it is getting more frequent and much more of a lasting problem. It's really making me slower and less productive. Your post was some time ago (May) it's now august. If you've found an answer please let me know.
