File is corrupted
I saved 2 different ai files and exported them as pdf or jpg and then opened them the next day to make edits and it deleted all the artboards but one on both. These were big files but they said they were saved before I closed it. Please help!

Global swatches unlinking from grayscale gradient
I'm on a Mac Pro using Mojave version 10.14.6
Using Illustrator 2020 & 2021, both updated to latest iterations.I have a gradient one piece object, I turn a copy of it grayscale through the Edit Color feature > convert to grayscale, I extract the grays generated and ensure global swatches is on to keep swatches linked. Each of this swatch I rename to a specific designation. I used this grayscale gradient and use it as an opacity mask, this serves as a density mask that allows me to control the opacity of each section of the color gradient separately.…

Reflect Across Vertical Axis does not account for Variable Stroke
I was making a vector in Adobe Illustrator using Variable Stroke. I wanted to make a mirrored copy of my original left-facing drawing to have a right-facing character. But when I mirrored it, the Variable Stroke did not match the original.
Attached is what I was working on, also labeling the three areas where the issue is most obvious. Note how the stroke thickness is not identical.1 vote -
Color picker preview doesn't match color field/document, matches monitor RGB instead
- Operating system: Windows 10 Pro. Version of Adobe Illustrator: 25.0
- When I select a color in the color picker, the circled color in the color field doesn't match the color in the preview. The color field matches the document, but the preview shows it as much brighter. It actually matches my monitor RGB since it matches the document opened in Windows photo viewer (see attachment). I don't have this problem in Photoshop. Everything matches. It looks like the color field is correctly color managed but the preview box is not.
- Expected result: I expect the preview to match the color…

Type on Path Brackets Not Appearing
When using type on path tool (and then direct selection for realignment), the brackets to realign often don't appear regardless of how long you tediously go over the path trying to get the cursor to change. In the off chance we can get them to appear, often it isn't possible to drag the text fully to where it needs to be to go in place before the cursor jumps. This isn't happening in Photoshop, only Illustrator, which leads me to believe it is a bug.

Excessive fan and temperature in v21
Hi. Upgraded to v21 from v20 when it was automatically available. I am on a Dell laptop 7501 with Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10750H CPU @ 2.60GHz and 40gb RAM. Since installing v21 when illustrator runs it constantly runs the fans up and CPU temp is generally above 80degrees, after about an hour the program crashes. All drivers are up to date. Switched back to v20 and no issues, no fan noise in operation and temp about 20degrees lower!

(Slow) and not responding
Hi!
For the moment, I am unable to work on Illustrator. It worked fine earlier this week (even with a few unexpected crashes or slow moment).
On a preexisting file or a brand new one, it is slow (zooming in or out for example takes seconds) if not just not responding at all: trying to move an element gives me a black window for a few sec' with a Not Responding state before I can see again and nothing has moved.
I tried on v.25.0 and v.24.3 (from Windows 10).
Maybe the issue comes from the computer, or Windows ? …

illustrator is unable to save this document ... due to some unexpected errors.
Prior that, I get a message saying "This file has been modified outside Illustrator. Do you want to continue?" Then I click yes.
Then... "Illustrator is unable to save this document ... due to some unexpected errors."
I've been getting this message every now and then whenever I try to save a document. Started when I updated my Adobe Illustrator to version 25.0.
Save a copy yields the same result.

Tools are all unusable
MACOS 10.14.6 Illustrator 2021 cloud.
Everything worked fine yesterday. New 2021 will not allow me to work on ANY project, old or new because the toolbox is locked. I launched Illustrator, opened a file, wanted to edit some text, selected the Type Tool, moved the cursor to the desired type and the cursor didn't change to the TYPE tool but showed a paintbrush with a locked icon attached. No matter which tool, or file (I tried several, also a NEW) the result was the same paintbrush icon.1 vote -

Editing direct select tool node deletion/undo
I love being able to delete a node just by pausing with the Apple Pencil on top of the node. However, there is a conflict with trying to move and adjust the node. Often when I am carefully and slowly moving a node, it deletes it instead of moving it. Then when I hit undo the node comes back but it isn’t visible. My work around is to click on a different line to select the nodes there and then click on the line that I want to edit. Then I can see the node I want to move again.

Alt click with the Scale tool makes y scale 0%
Al clicking with the scale tool (to choose an origin and open the numeric scale dialog) results in a default Y scale of 0%
That's strange!
And please make the upmost input field the default selected one.
