AI extremely slow on imac Pro 1.1, can't control UI
I use AI in the CC 22 version on a new imac Pro 1.1 from Dec 2017. It will always pick up objects and move them, it is almost impossible to control the UI and work with the application. It also doesn't react properly on the click command of the track pad. The same happens when I use a mouse. Both, in bluetooth mode and direct wire mode. The system is macos high Sierra 10.13.3
Do you have any help you can offer? Thank you.

Not Loading Other Tabs
When having multiple tabs open, Illustrator will not show the other art when switching to a different tab. Ex. Document 1 and Document 2 are open and I have been working in Document 1 for a while. When switching to Document 2 tab, the art for Document 1 still shows and does not switch to the other tab. I can pull Document 2 tab off into it's own window and it will show, but once placing it back into the interface, it goes back to only showing Document 1. This happens multiple times a day and is causing me to…

Panel tab clicking issues
I have been having issues when I click between two tabs that I group together in the same panel it will essentially freeze and only show me one of the panels if I am clicking on another. So for example I have the layer and link tab in one panel. I am currently on the layers panel and when I click on the links tab to switch to that panel it continues to show me the layers panel when I am looking to see the links panel if that makes sense? The only way of fixing this is restarting the…

Not enough memory to place the file + can't export files Illustrator
Hi,
Hope all is good.
When trying to add any file over approx 50kb to an Illustrator project (to an empty one or one with existing layers), if that's a png, jpg or psd, error message comes out ''not enough memory to place the file'', or nothing happens at all.
At the same time, when I try to export a finished project (of any size), these methods don't work:
'Export As' PNG = the operation cannot be completed because of an unknown error. [!now]
'Save for web (legacy)' = can't even open the option panel, error message comes up straight…7 votesRequest to Contact Support ·AdminIllustrator Engineering (Software Engineer, Adobe Illustrator) responded
Please accept my sincere apology for the inconvenience. Please get in touch with us at any of the other support channels – https://helpx.adobe.com/support.html . Since this is not a generic issue that we can reproduce at our end, we will need someone to look into your machine to figure out what is going on here.
As Andy commented that the memory issue was resolved after updating to 23.0.3, please try that.
Thanks & Regards,

線幅プロファイルが付加されたパスに対するブレンドを指定すると表示に時間がかかる。
Illustrator 26.3.1
OS macOS10.15.7(Intel)/Windows10問題の説明:
線幅プロファイルが指定されたパス同士をブレンドした場合、再描画に相当な負荷がかかります。アクティビティモニターで確認するとCPU負荷が90%を超え、その状態が数秒続きます。その間Illustrator上ではレインボーカーソルが回り続けます。
なお、ver.25.4.1ではこの様な表示パフォーマンスの問題はありませんでした。再現手順:
1.直線をペンツールで2つ作成し、それぞれに線幅プロファイルを指定する。
2.そのパスに対してブレンドを指定しステップ数255とする。
3.意図通りの表示となるが、描画完了までに数秒かかりレインボーカーソルで待たされる。実際の結果:
微調整の為にアンカーポイントを移動したり線の設定などを変更するたびに数秒待たされる。期待された結果:
プロファイルを付加したパス同士のブレンドに対するパスポイントの調整でも以前のバージョンのようにスムーズに編集できる。回避方法:
パフォーマンスの問題のようですから、再描画が完了するまで待つか以前のバージョン(2021)を利用するしか無いようです。※添付のベンチマーク用データではシンボルの編集終了から通常の編集画面に戻るまでに1分近くを要します。

New update v25.1 is extremely buggy
With this new update I get the 'spinning beachball' constantly while trying to zoom in or out of the artboard.
Also - I have multiple objects with clipping masksI'm seeing unprecidented levels of glitches and visual artifacts all over the place that appear/disappear/reappear when zooming in and out. It's nearly unusable in this state!6 votes -

Performance on MacOS
Currently MacOS version still slow, zooming slow , it's memory hog. it need to use Apple Metal GPU API. Illustrator is heavy. They need to improve the performance. Listen to the users.
like MacBook Air it runs slow and laggy.

Adobe Illustrator 2020 (24.1.2)-The latest updated version KEEPS CRASHING on MacOS Mojave
Hi
I'm having crashing issues with the simplest movements like dragging, changing the type sizes, accidentally double-clicking etc.
First the screen freezes.
Later everything goes blank/my screen sometimes goes full black and forced shutdown follows.
I'm using Macbook Air - MacOs Mojave version 10.14.6. (1.6 GHz Intel Core i5/ 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3).
This is happening every time I open up AI without exception.
Note: When I started my computer in safe mode-AI is working normally.
What should we do?
Thanks in advance.6 votesPlease follow the steps listed in this link to share the crash log to Illustrator team, this will help us investigate and fix this issue. https://helpx.adobe.com/in/illustrator/kb/crash-next-steps.html

Illustrator crashes and causes computer to restart.
While using Adobe Illustrator, after updating, it has been crashing and causing my computer to shut down after sometimes only a few minutes up to a few hours of use.
I have used InDesign and Photoshop just as much (as well as Chrome and many other applications) and I don't have any issues with crashing or shutting down. Only when Illustrator is running.Attached are my PC specifications.

Opening Graphic styles causes crashes of v23
Checking on status of incident (ADB-4515680-P0G2). Adobe has connected with my computer twice and we were able to replicate the "crash" or freezing of the program when the graphic styles were opened in Illustrator 23.01. I am currently using V22 when I need to use graphic styles.
Have the engineers made progress in determining the issue and developing a fix?
