Asset Export
Illustrator 2022 - When using the asset export window with one of the file types being set to SVG, the resulting SVG MAC OS finder previews show up as empty artboards. If you open them in illustrator the art is there, but way off on the canvas and I have to manually select all then align them to the center of the artboard. Very annoying. This never happened with Illustrator 2020.

Cannot place or link native AI file into document if PDF compatibility is off...
AI files cannot be placed into other AI files if PDF compatibility is off for the linked files. PDF compatibility completely negates the benefit of linked files storage savings since a complete duplicate of all artwork (included linked assets) gets embedded with the AI file - this is inefficient (at an extreme level) Illustrator should be able to place native AI files without relying on PDF and we should be able to benefit from the storage savings of linked assets.

Bug: Export to SVG messing up illustration
When i export an artboard or selection to svg it messes up the location of some parts of the illustration while exporting to other formats (png) works correct. I use illustrator version 26.3.1. I have like 20 other artboards with other illustrations, all messed up. Like a month ago it still worked.
Attachment:
header mobile@2x.png (export as png works correct)
Screenshot of svg (Needed to make screenshot cause i cant upload an svg)Hopefully this will get fixed soon, or get a workaround, cause I cant deliver any products to my client now.

Problem ingesting then reexporting SVG with transform attributes
Take an SVG file with transform attribute which contains some translate(x,y) distance. Illustrator will open it fine, but if you re-export (save for screens), transforms are mangled and go outside the svg viewport.
Please investigate, maybe it's worth to wipe the transform attributes completely when saving to a new SVG file?
I attached the example SVG file. Disregard the fills, they were originally set to consume CSS-variables but Illustrator wiped them (which is another potential bug). For example, fill would be like: fill="var(--c-color-semantic-codsen-roundel-bg)".
Thank you.

"on your computer" button does not work in the "save" dialog when "creative cloud" is selected as the default location to save files
I just updated to 26.3.1. Made a new file, sketched in it, and hit 'save".
I was presented with the Creative Cloud dialogue. I am not a fan of keeping stuff in the cloud so I hit the "on my computer" button; nothing happened. I swore, aborted the dialogue, and tried again to the same result.
A little further experimentation suggests that it works sometimes if I click on the button again. Weird.
OSX 11.6.4, Big Sur.

White lines added around exported JPGs
When I'm exporting images from Illustrator using 'Export Assets', often white lines or lighter lines are added on random edges of the images.
Screenshot shows image in Illustrator and exported image showing lighter row of pixels on image edge.

SVG Object IDs not exporting as unique
Export As > SVG
Object IDs: Unique
The object IDs are not unique.
I'm using the latest version of Illustrator.
I need to export unique IDs because I'm placing multiple SVGs in one HTML page.

Importing SVG with a linked PDF inside a symbol does not work
Normally if you open an SVG file with an image xlink:href pointing to a ai/pdf file it links and shows the file where the image is. However, if that image is inside a symbol (I found some issues with <defs> too) it does not link and is missing entirely.
Broken:
<svg version="1.1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" viewBox="0 0 400 400"> <use xlink:href="#symbol" width="400" height="400" /> <symbol id="symbol" viewBox="0 0 400 400" > <image width="400" height="400" xlink:href="linked.pdf" opacity=".4" /> <image width="400" height="400" xlink:href="linked.png" opacity=".4" /> </symbol> </svg>
Working:
…<svg version="1.1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" viewBox="0 0 400 400"> <image width="400" height="400" xlink:href="linked.pdf" opacity=".4" /> <image

このファイルを部分的にしか読み取ることができませんでした
「可能な限りファイルを復元しましたが、一部のコンテンツが欠落している可能性があります。」
とエラーメッセージが出て、開くと12ページほどあったアートボードが最初の1ページだけになっていました。
30時間以上かけて作ったデータが謎のエラーで消えました・・・。自動保存されたデータはないのでしょうか?

Not Saving
Illustrator saving suddenly stops working. I use a shortcut for SAVE AS, EXPORT AS, SAVE A COPY and all of a sudden nothing happens when I go to save. Only saves with Save/Cmd+S. Only restarting Ai helps. It was doing this before but now it's several times a day since updating to macOS Monterey 12.3.1. (Also happens with Ps.)
Ai version v. 26.2.1

Opening file
After working on a file and trying to save it, it kept telling me it couldn't save. I finally gave up and then just saved it as a PDF. I was able to work from the PDF. So i saved the PDF. And now I can't open the PDF or the illustrator file. It gives me the dialog: Can't open the illustration. The file is locked or in use. ID: -54
It's also not letting me upload the illustrator file here, only the PDF file.

Can't Access a Saved File from a folder in Google Drive
The Issue:
I saved an illustrator file then closed the program. After some days, I reopened the program. I could see the preview thumbnail showing my latest edit but when I clicked on it to open, it went back to a much earlier version of the file. This has now happened twice. Please help if you have solved this successfully.Details:
Illustrator 26.2.1 (64-bit)
OS: Windows 10
RAM: 12GB
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6600U CPU @ 2.60GHz 2.81 GHz1 voteIt turns out the folder is managed by Google Drive, and it restored a previous version for some reason.
If you had problems like this too — please comment.

No "Smallest File Size" option in dropdown menu when saving PDF
My only options for saving a PDF are "Custom" and "Illustrator Default" I've lost "Smallest File Size" and "Press Quality" options.
I need to save small PDF versions in order to send in emails ALL day, so this is a big issue for me.
OS Monterey 12.3 , and beta version of Ai that's newer than Ai 2022...
BECAUSE Ai 2022 won't let me save ANY files to my computer (I've checked to make sure it had permission.) It's a HUGE problem, that basically makes my job impossible to do.1 vote -
Illustrator can not save
I run Illustrator 26.1 on a 2019 MacBook Pro with macOS 12.3.
Illustrator can not save any new files!!? The saving window appears but the Save button is inactive and nothing in the left menu works. I can save to Cloud but not locally. Basically the whole Save-window is inactive. The only way to close the window is through shortcut CMD + "."
It "feels" like I don't have access to my Mac?
I can save existing documents (but not Save As).
I have tried to reinstall Illustrator and reset settings (CTRL, OPT, COMM at startup) but nothing helps.
