Snap to Grid functionality reversed
Running AI 22.1 on OSX 10.12.6
When drawing or moving objects, they behave as if 'Snap to Grid' is checked. It isn't. If I check 'Snap to Grid', the snapping behaviour stops.

Illustrator CC 22.1 destroyed my file
22.1 (released today March 15, 2018) destroyed a complex drawing, exhibiting very odd drawing mistakes leading me to quit. Upon reopening the file was corrupted and a single object remained. I suggest NOT updating until this is solved.

Can't work on a server - crashing and not saving files
I recently updated my OS to High Sierra V. 10.13.3 and have Illustrator CC18 22.0.1. I work on a server and at first, every time I tried to resave a file for the second time it would crash. Now all of a sudden I am able to save once and when I try to save the second time it says it can't and I have to save the file with a new name. It also keeps making .tmp files. If I work off of my server on my desktop this does not happen.

Placing/updating AI file links in INDD after update takes a very very very long time.
After updating AI and INDD, placing AI files into INDD is taking a very long time. I made an update to an AI file that was placed into an existing INDD files that contains 13 placed AI files. I only updated a few of the linked AI files. Prior to the AI and INDD update, updating these placed links took a few seconds each max. Now, just to update the two links takes about 2 minutes.
This MAY be an AI bug, but I don't know how make that determination as I updated bothat the same time.
1 voteThis seems to an InDesign issue or slowness of your file system or network. Illustrator has no role in the link update / place inside Indesign.

Mac is frozen when moving objects around
Hi, I'm using Illustrator CC on a Macbook (High Sierra). It very often freezes completely and nothing helps, but hard reset. It's very annoying, as this happens 10-15 times when making a Figure for a publication. It happens when moving simple objects around. I tried to reinstall and to purge the preferences, nothing really helps. Can someone help?

resaving bug
When Illustrator was updated to CC2018, I began having a recurring (and very annoying) issue: whenever I try to resave an open file, Illustrator crashes. Sometimes it will also crash if I do too many other actions in a row, though I can't say for sure what triggers that (if it is something consistent). I'm running it on a 2017 iMac with High Sierra. I report this every time it happens.

Font cuts disappeare
After a short time of working, the font styles disappear from the font menu. They are then no longer selectable.
If I select Text in the document, the Myriad is displayed instead of the correct font.I have checked which actions the problem occurs. Even if there is no user action and the document has been opened correctly and without error, Illustrator will switch to Myriad after a few minutes and will partially remove the fonts of the previously selected font from the menu.
I took the following test:

Illustrator can't read it's own files properly
Looses bitmap figure embedded in .ai file, reports the bitmap is missing when opening. While other software opens the file just right. Including Adobe Acrobat, Gmail preview, apple finder preview and Affinity Designer.
I made a file using Adobe illustrator, this file contains two jpg images. When I save the file and open it using illustrator on two different computers, a dialoge appears complaining the jpgs are missing and offer to replace them.
Oddly other software packages read the same file just fine, INCLUDING the allegedly missing jpg images, and in good quality.I can provide the file if you…

Consistent repeat crashes
Consistent repeat crashes. I'm on a MAC High Sierra. I know my Illustrator 21.1 will at least crash around 10am and 3pm EVERYDAY. It goes through phases where it will crash 4 times a day.
I am merely opening an Illustrator file from my desktop or in a folder on my desktop that is 1mb -5mb most times when this happens. When clicking on the file and waiting for this small file to open and nothing happens I realize that it's locked up.
I check the task manager and sure enough it's not responding and I have to force quit…

Vector shapes show as black
When opening an .ai file on one particular PC in our workplace (a file that was created on a different PC) most of the vector shapes show as black-filled shapes.
We have multiple copies of Illustrator (all version 22.0.1 (64-bit) in our workplace and on every other PC the artwork displays properly (with no black shapes).
Turning on 'Overprint Preview' on the troublesome PC fixed the issue.
On every other PC turning this option on or off has no effect.
If we create a new file in Illustrator on this troublesome PC then we don't experience any problems?
