Illustrator CC 2019 is very slow and laggy
I'm using a Mac OS 10.13 Intel Core i7 16 GB. Ever since I updated to the CC 2019, illustrator became laggy and slow. The other adobe apps worked fine after the update. I saw here that I should try turning the dictation off but that didn't help.
Everything in illustrator is slow now. And if I use the blend tool a lot in one document the eyedropper option in the gradient window becomes unavailable. Everything even if it's as simple as moving from one art board to the next or zooming in/out is lagging140 votesGentle Reminder 2:

Version 24.0.1 becomes unresponsive
I'm using Illustrator 24.0.1 with Windows 10 Pro
Since updating Illustrator keeps becoming entirely unresponsive midway through working with no warning and no way to save or quit.
Sometimes I can move the mouse over menu items, the drop down menu will be completely black and items 'appear' as I hover over them but I cannot click them. Other times I can not even access the menus and it is entirely unresponsive.
Since updating it has happened daily even when working on relatively simple artworks.
16 votesHi All,
Can you please update the OS version with which you are facing this issue?
We are working closely with Microsoft for one of the similar performance issue which is on WIN 10 latest seed.
Thanks & Regards,

Right Click
This is not an idea, it is a bug complaint! My right click does not work on Illustrator on anything. I just downloaded the latest version of Adobe Illustrator Version 2017 21.1.0 in hopes to correct the "right clicking" issue that was in my older version (version prior to 21.1.0). I've uninstalled and reinstalled the program and the same problem still persist. My right click does not work! This is slowing down my work and it's definitely not time efficient. Help me fix this now!

Create new file dialog box lags
When I'm working with multiple files, opening and closing, there are times where I copy an object to a new file. I use Command-N, but the dialog box lags and takes several seconds to show up. Is it trying to connect to something online? Why is there lag?

Crash while setting up Action
Illustrator crashes every-time I try to set up a new action. I am trying to create a shade effect of a "sticker" but doing the following:
- Take outline vector (which is white path)
- Duplicate
- Switch to fill
- Change color to black
- Apply Shear at 20 degrees
- Edit opacity to 20%
- CrashJust curious as to why this happening. Possibly due to my file size? 162.5 MB
1 voteHi,
Can you please verify if this issue has been resolved with the latest AI version or not? (AI 23.0.2).

Illustrator doesn't open
I simply can't open Illustrator anymore. The screenshot below shows how Illustrator appears when it's open. I can only see the top bar, none of the actual interface. I'm working on MacOS Mojave Version 10c.14.1 Illustrator version 23.01
I even tried uninstalling and installing it again but nothing changed.
Thank you
