  2. Not enough memory

    Working on MacOS Catalina 10.15.7 with Illustrator 25.3.1
    I have a simple shape like half of a circle which has a standard color filling plus a "inner Glow" effect. When I want to transform the object like scaling, it tells me there is not enough memory. When I hide the effect and redo the steps it will let me transform the object. Thanks for taking care.

  4. Illustrator Crash/Not Running

    Operating System: Windows 10
    Version: Adobe Illustrator 25.3.1

    After the last update, some of my documents on Creative Cloud do not open, unless I create duplicate and run the duplicate.

    The updated Illustrator crashes more often, specially if I have a lot of layers.

  5. Beta 25.4 – Crashing when in isolation mode (Big Sur 11.4)

    I'm running both the Apple Silicon Beta version (25.4) of Illustrator and 25.3.1 via the Rosetta emulator, and having the same issue across both. Huge amounts of lag occur when double clicking an object to enter isolation mode. At first I thought it was because the file I was working on had a bunch of linked images, but now even new files with a single vector object drawn will have the same lag issue. A shutdown of the machine sees a new file operate as expected, until I enter isolation mode, and then the same issue occurs. Close that file,…

  6. 画像トレース中に設定値を変えながら調整中にソフトが落ちる(v 25.3.1)

    画像トレース中に設定値を変えながら調整中にソフトが落ちる。
    2〜3回目の変更でほぼ必ず。
    v 25.3.1においての現象。
    v 25.2.3以前では大丈夫。よく使う機能なのでアップデートできない。

  8. Illustrator Crashes in Big Sur, Intel 2019 Macbook Pro

    Illustrator crashes 2-3 times a day now that I've upgraded my Intel MacBook Pro to Big Sur 11.4 and updated to Illustrator 25.2.3. Illustrator opens just fine, but while I'm working or saving a file, it randomly crashes, so I can't figure out how to avoid it. I don't have any plugins. I've never had this problem with Catalina. I save to Google Drive (that has not changed.) Thankfully files are recovered, but this is a major productivity hit a point of great frustration.

  9. Wacom tablet pen problem

    The buttons on the Wacom tablet pen has been set to scroll up/down, but it doesn't work in illustrator. When pressing the button, a hand sign appears and vanishes instantly. The buttons work fine in other adobe and non-adobe apps. I have tried reinstalling the Wacom drivers and also disabled and enabled the wacom device on preferences but nothing seems to work.

  10. After Big Sur upgrade

    I am having a lot of issues with Illustrator 2021 after Big Sur upgrade.

    Directional tool continues to change on it's own, and duplicates.
    Pencil tool gets stuck on straight line and won't allow me to change it.
    Object/Transform/Reflect causes a duplicate, and won't transform until I delete the copy.
    Cannot click off to deselect an object. I have to go to menu to deselect all.
    Keeps automatically checking Perspective Grid, snap to grid. I don't do it, but I have to go and uncheck it all the time.
    When program crashes it doesn't recover anything, even though I have…

  11. Simplify Curve not able to remove anchor points on straight lines

    Ik think the algorithm needs a rework, since it is not able not detect all anchor points on straight lines.

    See screenschots.

  12. Last version super slow and partly broken

    First of all, Illustrator needs almost 1-2 to start since the latest update. Before it was, like Photoshop, just a matter of some seconds.
    When started, everything feels sluggish, changing the font for a text field is not possible anymore and I don't know how many more problems. The whole UI makes a somewhat broken impression, the cursor in textfields doesn't show and a whole lot more and is very unresponsive, takes seconds to react.

    This is with a high-end setup with 64GB of RAM (of which 32GB are free when showing this behaviour, so it's not RAM shortage causing…

  14. Illustrator keeps freezing after about 30 minutes work

    Intel Core i3, Windows 10.

    It keeps freezing or crashing when i go from one tab to another within the program. This problem is happening every 30 minutes of work and making it impossible to use the program and I'm losing work that I'm currently using.

    I have to close the program down and start it up again. Once I change tabs I get the dark grey background and I cant go any further.

    I have uninstalled and reinstalled Illustrator and I am having the same issues.

  19. Just purchased new mac and Illustrator doesn't work

    My old 2015 mac finally broke today and I purchased a brand new mac, all updated to newest software versions and now I am having nothing but issues with illustrator.
    I used to run CS6 on my 2015 mac with 0 problems, now running CC and I literally cannot do my job.

    When I select an item it will not deselect unless I move the screen, If I move an item I cannot see where the item is until I move the screen. I cannot work like this, I use Illustrator to design and set up files for laser cutting…

  20. Illustrator 25.2.1 zoom doesn't work correctly after import files

    After you import any tipe of file into the program a bug occurs modifying the use of the zoom tool so is impossible make a gradual zoom because a box like a "selection box" is created that brings the zoom to a very high percentage.
    It is also no longer possible to zoom out.
    This bug ONLY occurs if you import an external file into Illustrator and it won't fix it by deleting it or restarting the program.
