Guides not snappable when locked or on a locked layer
For some reason, after updating to CC 2019 from CC 2018 today, I noticed that the smart guides won't snap to guides when you hover over them (i.e. with the pen tool) if guides are locked (which is usually the case for me since it's annoying having them unlocked and accidentally selecting them all the time) or on a locked layer. They were always recognized by the smart guides regardless of being locked or not as far as I remember in every past version of Ai. Any way to fix this back to how it was? It's super annoying to…

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.…
1 voteCan you please share the case id so that I can understand the conversation you had with the support staff.
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…

Surface pen doesn't work anymore
It stopped working after the latest updates from either MS or Adobe. It worked fine before and now it doesn't.
Problems go from panning instead of drawing in Photoshop, to not drawing at all or at certain (unspecific) intervals.

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.

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).

PDF save
in Ai CC 2017 and earlier i could save a file to "press quality" and uncheck the "preserve illustrator editing capabilities" to make a smaller PDF... a 70 MB Ai file could be saved to a "press quality" file at about 16 MB. now when i uncheck said box the PDF is 700KB and doesn't open as a PDF but has this text: "This is an Adobe® Illustrator® File that was saved without PDF Content". and if i leave it checked the resulting PDF is the same size as the Ai file. What happened?

Pop up descriptions missing
The pop up descriptions for the various buttons on the toolbars are very inconsistent; sometimes they appear and sometimes they don't. Sometimes they take a long time to appear and sometimes they're fairly quick. Please fix this, as it is impossible to figure out what a tool does from an image, text is required.
