Zapf Dingbats update post TrueType issues

Help!!! I have purchased a new ITCZapfDingbats font and cannot get InDesign to recognize it. I purchased Connect Font and used that to clear my font cache. I used Find/Replace in my InDesign document to be sure that the old True Type Zapf Dingbats was not present. But I'm still seeing the black rectangle w/pink highlight indicating that the font is not recognized. I have both shut down and restarted my computer many time. Typically I used FontBook to manage my fonts.I have NO idea what to try next.

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 12.6
