      I have created a logo on Photoshop CS5 and have saved it as an EPS. However, when i go into InDesign and Place it in, it comes up with a white background? There is definitely NO background on the Photoshop file… Please help!

      Photoshop EPS embeds a bitmap image in a EPS file and isn’t capable of saving transparencies. Try saving as a PNG or creating the logo in illustrator and exporting from illustrator as EPS.

      Or, if it has to be Photoshop, then save as PSD (native Photoshop format) and import that into InDesign.
