Ai 2021 - crashing after 1 or 2 minutes on Mac OS Big Sur 11.1
While starting to work on Ai, the system shuts down unexpectedly in 1 or 2 minutes - after opening any ai files. I had a chat with Adobe support team and they have advised me to delete the Creative Cloud app, after which the app was working fine but fonts were missing. Because I required the fonts to work on - I have reinstalled the CC app, then the issue started again. Request to please support in resolving the issue or suggestions.

Freezing entire M1 MacBook Air
I understand there is no beta for Illustrator yet. I was just hoping I could still use the program. I'm on a deadline and it looks like I will have to use someone else's computer. This is a huge problem.

Illustrator crashing on average twice a day
I use illustrator daily for work and currently it's crashing about 2x/day. It's fairly random, but it'll even happen during the night if I leave it running - I'll wake up to the "quit unexpectedly" script. I keep my programs updated and I'm using a 2-month-old macbook pro with 2TB of storage.

Shape are invisible/Glitch
Hi, I use Adobe Illustrator 2021, and my laptop is Mac OS Big Sur. Recently, illustrator bugs often appear. When I drew the shapes/lines with a pen tool, the objects are invisible Or glitch. It suddenly happens, so I had no idea what I can do.
When I zoomed out/in or tried to re-create in a new file, uninstalled and installed the app, I tried everything that I can do, but the result didn’t change.
It’s inconvenient because even I drew all the shapes; after all, it’s invisible to see...I’m not sure what the reason is. Would you help me…1 vote -

Generally cumbersome, especially copying and pasting.
Just a horrible program all together. Whatever happened to the Illustrator of days past? I think the program has become SO complex as it has "evolved" that it has become bogged down and quirky. Just to try to copy and paste a whole segment made up of multiple points is irritating. Why can't it paste a section, as opposed to just select segments of an object, when I choose the selection tool to do this. (I know not to use the direct selection tool for this).
It is just SO cumbersome, and without a lot of the commands or nice…

alt + mouse
When holding down alt and moving the mouse, the cursor lags almost like it is being processed at 10 fps. I'm using all high-end components, so it's not an issue with processing power.

Add Clipboard Clear Data Tab
Hi, it is great that when closing the illustrator file I am able to clear my data, however, other than some tech hacks, I've found this is the only simple way to do so.
I've unfortunately been working on a crashing document for the majority of the day and can't clear my clipboard because ethe program crashes when I close it down. This is a 4 word phrase with a blended path, nothing else. When running AI, it takes up 97% of my memory.
It would be awesome if there was a simpler and manual way to clear my clipboard…

Memory Error when using alt key to duplicate or pull from libraries
I am using windows 10 on a pc. This is in regards to adobe 2021
When I go to duplicate an object using the alt key, I get an error message saying I do not have enough memory to complete the action. I also can't use the alt key to drag things from my libraries. I do not get this message when I use ctrl C and ctrl V. I also do not get this message if I right-click on the items in my library and place them. It's only when I use the alt key function.

Pattern palette causes program crash
I have been experiencing a lot of problems with Illustrator since updating to Big Sur OS. At first it didn't even open. Now, the Pattern palette causes the program to crash every time I attempt to create a pattern. I have wasted a whole week and I cant seem to be able to get it to work correctly.

Scale tool not working consistently to resize pattern.
When attempting to scale the pattern within an object, the preview mode and regular screen modes do not reflect the adjustment input. If I close the program and open it back up it sometimes works again. If I play with other settings within the dialogue box is sometimes comes back as well but never consistently.

Art Recolor crashes Illustrator
Using a new MBP 13" M1, and attempting to re-color artwork causes the spinning beach ball which never goes away. Illustrator remains open and non-responsive, and the only resolution is a hard reboot via the power button or command line (force quit doesn't work). Yikes!
