space bar hand tool not working

I've rebooted and it works fine again now...

Come on Adobe fix this **** issue!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We pay good money to use an application that should work. This is really messing up my workflow.

Whats going on, will this be fixed? This is highly inconvenient.

I too find this very annoying!!!! Please rectify or tell what what I need to do to make this work.

Cheers

How is it possible? One of the most used shortcut doesn't work anymore in AI 2020?

I was having the same problem where command+spacebar pulled up Siri instead of zooming in.

I changed the commands for Siri (as well as spotlight) in system preferences and its working fine now.

same same... 10 years of habit gone away

Same here...

Hey guys, I found another thread which seems to solve the problem. I noticed it wasn't just in AI, but also in PS. It seems to be a conflict of another program hijacking the spacebar. What I did was restart the computer, and start AI before any other program. This seems to have worked and AI has its spacebar back. Here's the page which helped me: https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator/spacebar-not-working-as-quick-hand-tool-on-mac-adobe-illustrator/td-p/10878044?page=1

for christ's sake.

BRING BACK THE SPACEBAR HOLD for hand function and when released back to previous tool. This made work flow so fast for moving around the art board.
This change is making things much slower on my process having to go back and forth between commands.

This should be a very simple fix and is a very annoying new bug! Am running High Sierra - 10.13.6 and AI 23.0.4

This problem just started happening to my illustrator as well. MacOS Mojave 10.14.6. Illustrator 2019.

I didn't even opt for an update that I'm aware of, and now this is an issue on my Mac as well. This is going to make my job MUCH slower. Please fix this IMMEDIATELY.

$%#$@#%$#@%$# !!!!!!!!!!
Worked fine till like 30min ago, now al of a sudden the spacebar/hand stopped working.... no updates of osx or illustrator... just stopped...
Tried reinstalling: did not solve anything.

Very annoying that it's not working.
(AI 2020, Mac OS 10.15.2)

same problem there
:(

Looking at the notes here this goes back to 2018 and it is now 2020 and still you have not fixed this. Are the same people that wrote the Boeing software?

Please fix The Spacebar button
