  1. Blue Screen of Adobe Illustrator directly after Start

    Windows 10 64bit
    Dell XPS15 i7, 32GB Ram, GeForce GTX 1650 Ti
    Adobe Illustrator v 25.2.1

    With the latest Update to the Illustrator Version above I´m no longer able to start the Program - every time I try to open the Laptop crashes and I receive a Blue Screen immediately. Tried now 3 times in a row, no luck.
    Please advise how to solve the issue.
    Before the Update there were no issues at all.

  4. Video driver is not supported

    Windows 10
    Illustrator v 25.2
    Intel(R) HD Graphics 4600, Version 20.19.15.5171 (04.11.2020)
    What can I do? I have updated the driver, but the report is still there. Do I get instability and data loss if I suppress this report or deactivate some features in the preferences?

  5. System Compatibility error

    Since the recent update to version 25.2, when I launch I get an error message saying "System Compatability Report." I clicked on "fix" and followed the instructions, Intel says my drivers are up to date, yet I keep getting the same error. Files error 3 and 4 shows my operating system details.

  7. Intel HD Graphics 4600 unsupported video driver

    We've updated to the latest available driver from Intel for this integrated graphics card on our laptop.

    https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/30196/Intel-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-15-40

    However, Illustrator still warns of incompatibilities every time we launch it. We've set our discrete NVIDIA graphics card as the preferred GPU, and it's listed in the Edit > Preferences > Performance > GPU Details. However, Illustrator still appears to be trying to verify the Intel drivers. There's not an option to disable the onboard graphics chip in our BIOS (MSI laptop). We tried disabling the onboard graphics in Windows Device Manager, but that didn't appear to make any difference. We saw…

  9. Illustrator öffnet nicht richtig

    Betriebssystem: MacOS Version 11.0.1
    Ai: Version: 25.2

    Nach dem Öffnen von Illustrator (auch InDesign) erscheint nur das schwarze Feld und nicht die sonstige Bedienoberfläche. Auch das Öffnen mancher Dateien ist nicht möglich. Außerdem kann ich weder in Illustrator noch in InDesign eine neue Datei erstellen.

    Going forward, our goal is to fix as many top User-Voice bugs as possible and as frequently as possible. Given the nature of the fixes, some of the bugs will take a longer time to fix, but we are on it.

    You can update to the latest release using Creative Cloud desktop App: https://helpx.adobe.com/in/creative-cloud/help/creative-cloud-updates.html

    Thank you for all the feedback. Keep it coming!

  13. Font agent 9.6.1

    OS 10.13.6 High Sierra [don't want to upgrade OS yet]
    Illustrator 24.3
    Every time I open a file I get an error messgae saying that my 2015 plug ins need upgrading. Click to upgrade. I don't have 2015 plug ins. Suggestion from font agent is to upgrade Illustrator, can't do that as I don't want to upgrade OS.
    Solution dismiss error message every time, really tedious.
    What else can I do?

  14. Illustrator 2021 25.1 not opening files

    macOS Big Sur 11.1, Illustrator 25.1

    Double-clicking .ai files in finder launch Illustrator but the actual files do not open. If I drag the files to the Illustrator dock icon(after Illustrator is open) it will open one of the files (trying to open 8 files), then try thru open in File menu and select all 8 files, open a few of them.

    This did not happen until this last update.

  15. Verification

    I just paid for, and downloaded a new illustrator app three days ago and it's already not working, when I opened the app this morning it asked to verify me, so I added my email, password , it asked for phone number, verified that , no problem. Yet, once it was all done , a blank window with a loading symbol kept popping up every 4 seconds or so for hours, when I try to close the windows my entire app shuts down, I tried everything there is.. but I can't even uninstall the app. I'm really helpless here and…
