saving ai/pdf file is too slow
Saving ai or pdf file takes a lot longer than what it supposed to be. This is newly purcahse mackbook pro that I am using and its performance is great with photoshop and other adobe apps. I even untick 'pdf compatible' setting but it won't change a thing.

AI extremely slow on imac Pro 1.1, can't control UI
I use AI in the CC 22 version on a new imac Pro 1.1 from Dec 2017. It will always pick up objects and move them, it is almost impossible to control the UI and work with the application. It also doesn't react properly on the click command of the track pad. The same happens when I use a mouse. Both, in bluetooth mode and direct wire mode. The system is macos high Sierra 10.13.3
Do you have any help you can offer? Thank you.

Transform Tool
Entering a number in X then hitting tab to Y and typing in the number is jogging to another number and not applying the number I typed. I have to wait a couple seconds then type in the number for Y. This worked fine two versions ago.

CRASH AND NO RECOVERY
ever since the most recent updates, my illustrator has been crashing regularly. And worse file recovery has not recovered a single file. this is very wack. I have lost money re-doing things I already made and lost because of random crashes. Very Very disappointing and not encouraging me to continue using illustrator.

Panel tab clicking issues
I have been having issues when I click between two tabs that I group together in the same panel it will essentially freeze and only show me one of the panels if I am clicking on another. So for example I have the layer and link tab in one panel. I am currently on the layers panel and when I click on the links tab to switch to that panel it continues to show me the layers panel when I am looking to see the links panel if that makes sense? The only way of fixing this is restarting the…

Not enough memory to place the file + can't export files Illustrator
Hi,
Hope all is good.
When trying to add any file over approx 50kb to an Illustrator project (to an empty one or one with existing layers), if that's a png, jpg or psd, error message comes out ''not enough memory to place the file'', or nothing happens at all.
At the same time, when I try to export a finished project (of any size), these methods don't work:
'Export As' PNG = the operation cannot be completed because of an unknown error. [!now]
'Save for web (legacy)' = can't even open the option panel, error message comes up straight…7 votesRequest to Contact Support · AdminIllustrator Engineering (Software Engineer, Adobe Illustrator) respondedPlease accept my sincere apology for the inconvenience.

Remove popups!
Remove the popups and web links! This slows down the boot and static Illustrator screen!

Massive Lag Issue
Every time I open Illustrator, it takes an enormously long time to load. It continues to lag when I'm in the file, working on it - every action requires a wait time, from moving an object to typing a word. This makes using illustrator a massive chore.
This happens to all files, even ones that are very simple - at most maybe 10 individual elements (images and text.) I have the creative suite, so all things are up to date. This issue does not happen with Photoshop or InDesign, which run perfectly, so it's clearly not a memory issue or…

線幅プロファイルが付加されたパスに対するブレンドを指定すると表示に時間がかかる。
Illustrator 26.3.1
OS macOS10.15.7(Intel)/Windows10問題の説明:
線幅プロファイルが指定されたパス同士をブレンドした場合、再描画に相当な負荷がかかります。アクティビティモニターで確認するとCPU負荷が90%を超え、その状態が数秒続きます。その間Illustrator上ではレインボーカーソルが回り続けます。
なお、ver.25.4.1ではこの様な表示パフォーマンスの問題はありませんでした。再現手順:
1.直線をペンツールで2つ作成し、それぞれに線幅プロファイルを指定する。
2.そのパスに対してブレンドを指定しステップ数255とする。
3.意図通りの表示となるが、描画完了までに数秒かかりレインボーカーソルで待たされる。実際の結果:
微調整の為にアンカーポイントを移動したり線の設定などを変更するたびに数秒待たされる。期待された結果:
プロファイルを付加したパス同士のブレンドに対するパスポイントの調整でも以前のバージョンのようにスムーズに編集できる。回避方法:
パフォーマンスの問題のようですから、再描画が完了するまで待つか以前のバージョン(2021)を利用するしか無いようです。※添付のベンチマーク用データではシンボルの編集終了から通常の編集画面に戻るまでに1分近くを要します。

New update v25.1 is extremely buggy
With this new update I get the 'spinning beachball' constantly while trying to zoom in or out of the artboard.
Also - I have multiple objects with clipping masksI'm seeing unprecidented levels of glitches and visual artifacts all over the place that appear/disappear/reappear when zooming in and out. It's nearly unusable in this state!6 votes -
