  1. illustrator crashes when opening existing files

    Adobe illustrator crashes when opening existing files. After two complete re-installations (one of which was preceded by CC Cleaner), on a new machine running MacOS Catalina, the first Illustrator startup is correct. But Illustrator quits as soon as I try to open a file, even if that file has just been saved by this version.
    Other CC softwares are not affected.

  3. New Update (v24) crashes when I launch Illustrator by opening a file from finder

    I'm working on macOS Mojave 10.14.6
    2.9 GHz Intel Core i7
    Mem 16 GB
    Graphics Radeon Pro 460 4 GB Intel HD Graphics 530 1536 MB

    Anytime I double click on an illustrator file from a finder window to launch illustrator (it is not open) the icon bounces and then crashes.

  4. App viewing window not appearing, Latest Windows Update

    I just updated as windows prompted last night to Windows 10 Home; Version 1709; OS Build 16299.98, and Illustrator, photoshop, and presumably all adobe programs now has only the top bar for close, maximize/minimize- The workspace and any windows opened (ie file new) are just the background gray fill or black. The mouse seems to react between pointing and selecting and possibly the program is working underneath, but I can't see it. I've quit and restarted computer multiple times. Considering it was fine before, it's most likely tied to this latest release.

    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.

    Warm Regards,
