Illustrator selecting Folder name and renaming file when saving into Folder
When saving an Illustrator file - and InDesign also - I click the name of the folder that file is to go into and the filename changes to that folder's name. Why is this happening? Why was this not found when debugging these very expensive applications before throwing them at subscribers and hoping they will work? Really not professional. We pay far too much money for stupid things like this to happen. Needs to be fixed immediately. InDesign also.

I have the same problem, using a Mac. Doesn't happen in non-adobe apps, just noticed in Illustrator. If I go to File > Save A Copy, then switch the file format drop down to Adobe PDF (or anything else), then click on a choice of folder, the filename takes on the name of the folder. However, if you select the folder first, then choose the file format, it preserves your filename. Same issue when using File > Export too. Only happens when changing the file format before choosing your folder location.

I never had experienced it on Windows but I remember someone told me about this before... It might be a Mac-specific issue. Needs checking.
