Adobe has a long website with a list of common sense things to check: helpx.adobe.com/indesign/kb/troubleshoot-file-issues.html
Although they say to send your file to them, that rarely works! Sometimes, it takes days or weeks, for them to respond to the InDesign users. The IDMarkz InDesign recovery method works about 80% (or more) of the time!
We also have a DTP File Recovery Service for those that just want our page layout engineers to take a deep look:
