Dynamic Symbols don't move when direct selecting.
If I drag a selection box around a static symbol and then move it - it moves as expected. If I do the same with a dynamic symbol - it's broken.
Definitely need this to work for my workflow. Thanks!

Phantom Artboard keeps appearing
After I have created multiple artboards, and click to rearrange them, I keep getting this phantom artboard that shows up. It doesn't seem to be an actual artboard - I cannot select it with the artboard selection tool, and it doesn't show up on the artboard list, but it's there, being annoying visually, and since I can't select it, I can't figure out how to make it go away. I've tried to close and reopen the file, as well as the program. The only thing that has made it go away is to recreate the artboards in a new file…

Blob Brush leaves temporary marks
When I'm moving around the cursor, without pressing any buttons, and have the Blob Brush tool selected I get these marks. They disappear if I switch to the selection tool.

Can not export to png or jpg
When I try to export to jpg I get this error that comes up to lower my resolution. I have tried lowering it to 150dpi and still does not work.
When I try to export to png it comes up with an unknown error "(!now)"
This is ridiculous as I should be able to export from illustrator at any dpi without these issues as this is an expensive professional product.

Pixels out of alignment when copied from library
I'm currently rebuilding over 1,500 icons which need to be pixel-perfect and have certain badges that we're using a library for.
The icons are being made as symbols so we can edit the symbol and then on artboards, it's resized to the required icons we need.
Illustrator won't allow a linked graphic from the library, so I have to place a copy. As per image, when placing a link, the pixels line up as per design. When placing a copy, it moves the design around and ***** things up, making it not perfect. When I either place a copy or…

layer
The layers panel does not work. You cannot turn layer visibility on or off. Even enable / disable the panel itself. It is necessary to correct this error!

paste remembers layers doesn't work if original layer is hidden
Steps:
create object on layer.
Copy object.
Hide layer
create new layer
paste object with new layer selected.It will warn you that the layer you're attempting to paste onto is hidden. But....no it's not. I have the "paste remembers layers" checkbox turned off.
This is either a bug, or someone should stick close to someone who actually understands user expectations.

All new & existing .PDF registering file type as only .AI
System: MacOS High Sierra
All documents regardless if they're saved as and appearing as .PDF have now all changed so under 'file type' it classes them as Adobe Illustrator Documents meaning you can only view these in AI rather than a basic PDF view.
This also affects the ability to view PDF after creation as it doesn't pop up like previously.
This wasn't the case previously it has just changed for me today.
Help?

Adobe Fonts dont sync properly with Typekits fonts purchased.
My synced fonts don't show up in Illustrator. These are fonts that have been syncs for months. Restarting Illustrator does nothing. Unsyncing and resyncing fonts on Typekit does nothing

iMac pro
I use a new iMac pro 8 core 32gb. The of Illustrator performance is terrible. I design simple logos (some rectangles and a couple of words) black and white, no pictures, no imported stuff. 4 different Font weights.
After about 15 min of working everything starts to get a really long lag and becomes almost unusable.
I can't believe that this is possible. This is going on for several days. I did several restarts. All the other software I use runs amazing. UI is crazy slow. Commands take forever to execute.
You call this professional?I made several
