I'm boggled!
I've been using CS2 for nearly a year on both Mac and PC and have never seen this.
On the PC, when I import a graphic file (Ctrl-D), the image box appears but is empty. The file shows up in the linked images, but is not visible. I've set the display preferences to all three settings (fast, typical and high quality) so that's not it.
The original image is a pdf generated from Publisher. I thought that might be the problem, so I opened the pdf in Illustrator and saved it as an .ai file with the same result.
I then deleted the InDesign preference file. That seemed to work for one image, but when I tried the next, the same thing happened. It doesn't work with existing files that have worked previously either.
I was able to import the Publisher pdf into InDesign on the Mac, but that version is very old; InDesign 2.0 then I opened the file on the PC and the images were there but needed to be updated. When I hit update, the images disappeared again.
Any suggestions?
