CS4 Paragraph styles problems


i have been having weird problems paragraph styles in indesign cs4 did not have in cs2. first weird problem happened in class project somehow style got stuck in program's head, speak, , no matter style try apply, defaults stuck one. still happening in particular file no matter try. "stuck" style not of styles ended defining, must have been tried @ point , discarded. i've tried removing styles , starting over, i've tried "break link style" before trying apply 1 of styles...i stuck style.

     then, experimenting in test document, , having success styles working way supposed to, , ran across glitch: when select number of paragraphs apply numbered list, numbers appear should. click on new style icon @ bottom of styles palette create style based on , "paragraph style 1" style label appears in palette. click style open dialogue rename it, of numbers change "1." , if try apply style set of selected paragraphs, numbered "1" also. works way no matter numbering system uses...all "a" or "i" or whatever.

     have tried uninstalling , reinstalling indesign no avail. tried resetting indesign preferences. unfortunately experiencing glitchy things photoshop cs4 also. have new imac 24" 2.8 ghz intel core 2 duo 4g ram , running osx 10.5.6. bought software bundled design premium suite.

the first problem caused having character style applied text. can make applying paragraph styles confusing. try holding down option , shift when click on paragraph style name.

 

the numbering problem caused expecting of single style. have style set start numbering @ 1 rather continue previous. can single style set latter if never want restart numbering in second list. if need restart list you'll need @ least two, 1 start numbering , 1 continue it.

 

there have been numbering of discussions here on both these topics.
