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.

There can be a lot of reason for the uploads e.g.
1. You area saving files to Creative cloud files
2. Or uploading heavy files to Creative Cloud library
3. Or some third party extensions making these calls.Please get in touch with us at any of the other support channels – https://helpx.adobe.com/support.html .

All pdf files in finder suddenly are called Illustrator files All the pdf files on my Macbook (macOS Mojave 10.14.2) are suddenly called "illustrator files" in my finder and when double clicking on them, they are opened by Illustrator (CC 2019, updated 12.12.2019). Before they have been simple pdf files which I created by Microsoft Word and which always were called "pdf file" in finder.

Misleading Backup I just lost an hour's work due to a power failure. I usually save more often, but didn't today. When the power came back and Illustrator launched, I was not prompted to recover a file. I checked the preferences and it said it was saving recovery data every two minutes.
The recovery location was empty.
I went on chat with support and they said, "Illustrator will, on very rare occasions, recover a file after a crash. it's exceptionally rare though. It has something to do with how and why the crash occured and only in special instances is recover possible.…

We do turn off data recovery for complex documents as it affects performance. However there is a way to turn that optimisation off in preference File handling and Clipboard > Turn off Data Recovery for complex documents -
File's list Symbols not automatically updated in panel when pasting symbols from another file. Illustrator CC 2018 (22.1) on Mac High Sierra 10.13.3
I have a file that already has symbols in it. When I paste more symbols from another file, the symbols recently pasted do not appear in the Symbols panel (eg if I want to select one of them and use the panel's menu to select all instances).
The first file below shows the Symbol panel with the new symbols missing.
The second shows the Replace dropdown menu, where the new symbols are shown (colour circles).I only managed to make the new symbols appear by creating a random new one (it…

Illustrator CC won's allow me to update the artboard size in Options panel. When I change the width and height the size automatically reverts back to a size that is some 20 pixels off. I need the artboards to be precisely 2160x1920 which is the size they were when created, but somehow they change to different sizes like 2180x1916. When I try to update the size in the field, as soon as I click off the field the dimension goes right back to the old, incorrect dimension. I cannot save it out to the correct dimension. I can drag the size of the artboard with the artboard tool, but that is impossible to…

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.

Changing size of area type shape with mixed font style changes all characters to one font style I was using trial version of Illustrator CC 2017. I just purchased for a year and upgraded to Illustrator CC 2018.
Draw shape. Choose area type tool. Click path of bubble. Bubble disappears and is converted to Lorem Ipsum text with transparent path. Deselect object. Choose direct selection tool. Select the path. Choose default b/w stroke/fill. Now text is inside a white bubble with black outline. (I also used Type > Area Type Options > Inset Spacing to adjust margins inside the path, and First Baseline to X Height.)
Now, use the Type tool to select one word. Under Properties…

Typeface search box in Character panel still does not work In the Character panel, when typing the name of a font, Illustrator allows two letter to be typed in and then jumbles the letters as one types them in, resulting in a frustrating and useless search.
In the attached screen shot, I was attempting to type in "Avant Garde" ... instead this is what happens. Every time. With any text entry. It was the same in the previous version of CC as well (only in Illustrator).
