Center of rotation changes position
Win 11
Version 28.1
Trying to rotate a path from a custom rotation location by entering the rotation as a value, not manually.
I'd expect that you can rotate from any given position by entering rotational values. As it is, your selected rotation position will instead default to center.
Video attached.
Summary
When you select a custom position to rotate a shape from, it only works if you manually rotate the object. You can't select a custom position and then type in a rotational value via enter or double-clicking on the rotate tool.2 votes -
Eyedropper doesn't work on vector groups and bitmaps
Eyedropper has stopped working with 1) groops 2) nonvector images (for instance, photos). This is extremely inconvenient and didn't exist in previous versions.

Annoying Flickering Cursor when Photoshop is open
This is still an issue with the latest releases of Illustrator and Photoshop. We shouldn't have to close Photoshop to have the behavior disappear. See my screen capture today attached or on Box.com: https://nic.box.com/s/hemehrwzo9fm0ye3evst9ma41x908ipp

Magic Wand tool selects things it shouldn't
In the video below, I have four shapes: two black squares with a transparent stroke (i.e., no stroke), a black square with a gold stroke, and a red square with a gold stroke. The tolerance level in the Magic Wand palette is set to zero for both strokes and fills.
If "Fill Color" only is checked, and you click on a plain black square with the Magic Wand tool, both plain black squares and the black square with the gold fill are selected as expected.
If "Stroke Color" only is checked, and you click on a plain black square, both…

Graph styling does not survive round-trip save to cloud
When I save a document locally containing a styled graph the graph styling sticks after updating the data. If the same file is saved to the cloud as an .AIC file when I update the data the styling is lost. Saving this file locally does not fix the issue – all styling has to be re-applied. This means I cannot use the cloud to keep template copies of my graph designs for future use.

Text to Vector prompt doesn't work
When I write a prompt and hit 'generate', the bar loads as normal but then produces an error message saying, "Something went wrong, try again".
This also doesn't work for the sample prompts provided by the program.2 votes -
Cursor won’t change when a tool is picked using keyboard shortcuts
Selected tool icons do not change when using keyboard shortcuts. For example: zooming in (Z) and then selecting Direct Selection (A) keeps the zoom icon, which is disconcerting to say the least. You're not sure you've selected the correct tool, or have to click the mouse to make sure (doing so resets the icon to the correct tool).
I've noticed it on 26.5. I rolled-back to 26.4.1 and experienced it there too. I'm running a new MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2021), Apple M1 Max chip 32 GB.
I've attached screenshots of various tools that fail to switch.

When N key is pressed to get the Pencil, it says "an unknown error occured"
I am in AI 27.0.1 on a 2021 MacBook Pro running Monterey. Each time I hit the N key to get the pencil, it says "an unknown error occurred." It doesn't crash, but I can't use the pencil.
6 votesThe problem got 'solved' by unplugging a Dell monitor connected to MacBook Pro. Changing the resolution also helps.
However, this is not a true solution, but a workaround. If you have this issue too — please vote and comment.

Deleting points/segments causes Illustrator to crash.
Every time I start deleting segments, when I get to the last point and try to delete - my illustrator always freezes and then crashes after minutes of waiting for it to respond again.
