"The team confirms this is no longer available in Beta 29.0.0.38 and is going to be revisited in the next one."

this is Hilarious.. is this team work?.. sounds like everyone is working individually and not communicating. Adobe you can do better. I believe in you!

It's a load of bull. They're doing the typical Adobe thing where they don't listen to, or care about, users.

NOT FIXED YET.

I just downloaded the newest update for Illustrator and the "Replace All" option is STILL missing. Why? How many customers need to say how this has messed up their work flow before you care to fix it?

I see Adobe has you hard at work implementing the AI (artificial intelligence) features. That's useless to us. Sure it's fun for people with nothing better to do. It's fine for a small company that can't afford to actually pay a graphic artist – but even then the results are a mixed bag at best.

MAYBE you could mention to your bosses that this feature is sorely missed by the professionals that actually use your software. Maybe you could manage to just replace the code you deleted for this useful feature? I downloaded that script you recommended and it doesn't work consitantly – particularly with placing .pdf files rather than .ai files.

If I have 10 links that are all the same.. there isnt a way to replace all 10 at the same time with a the same new link. please fix this. this is using 29.0.38 on windows 64

And its broken again. As of v 29.0 (Beta)
I updated today and now the "replace all" option is gone again

But unfortunately not in the current 28.7 shipping version.

@ar designconcept
28.6 is not 28.8 :)
This is still only in Beta 28.8.0.43 or higher Beta build — not yet in the GA build.

Still not appear. i need it urgently!

Illustrator 2024 (Beta) 28.8.0 #43
I have confirmed that the function has been restored.

This is perfect! Exactly what we needed, just the replace all checkbox returned. I tested this with an old file we've been using forever and its working the same way! I believe this has been fixed with this Beta version. Thank you for listening to all of us and making it right!
When can we expect the next full version of Illustrator with this function returned?

I downloaded the Beta version and nothing was fixed?

Volví y me quedé en Illustrator 28.4 porque allí aún está "apply to all".

No quiero actualizar el programa si no reparan eso. Según este foro aún sigue el problema.

¿Qué esperan?

MacOS 13.6.7
Illustrator 28.6

問題がまだ修正されていません。
v28.5と同じままです。
冗長なオプションを増やすのではなく「全てに適用」チェックボックスを元に戻してください。

The problem has not been fixed yet.
It remains the same as v28.5.
Please restore the "Apply to all" checkbox as soon as possible instead of adding redundant options.

I just updated to v28.6 and I don't see this dialog box when replacing files. I agree with many of the comments that say just put back what was there before. It worked very well. What was broken that needed fixing? Is there a Hippocratic Oath for coders? First do no harm...

It's been a couple of weeks since the promised return of our "Replace All" checkbox for links. Can you not just put back the code that was there for years?

The revised experience not found.

USER ENEMY ADOBE COMPANY
By canceling the Replace All option, you are torturing users who perform mounted operations. When you upgrade the version of the program we paid for, you cancel features that are useful to people. For this reason, we still have to use the old version. Even though we wrote so much, you don't make any corrections. What exactly is your intention? Causing trouble for users? Or serving assembly program vendors? Are you doing this bullying because you are unrivaled? There was FreeHand before, you took it and destroyed it. You have become a monopoly. If you continue like this, we will stop writing to you. As Mac users, you are forcing us to use another program. What you are doing is a great injustice.
I installed version 28.6 today, but again there is no Replace All feature. I will have to delete it and use the old version again. You don't deserve the money you get.

The fix is not that usable when replacing multiple files. Please place back the "Apply to All". Also it appears to have more steps involved.

Not having a quick way to "Apply All" adds much more time to my work flows and the team I work with. When replacing files on a page layout with lets say for instance 70 pieces of artwork for printing this is an issue. The fix above without a w replace all is adding more steps and more time. Also it will not be as fast. Adobe, please do not change what does not need fixing unless it would improve workflow. The "Apply to All" is something I, and my team were using every day (multiple times a day) for updating files and replacing images on templates for repeat Customers and new Customers when they have updated artwork. We do not want to add time for our Customers. Also we do not want to explain to our Supervisors and Sales Team why files are taking more time to process. I enjoy working in Adobe programs & would like to continue to work in Adobe programs.

Egor said everything I wanted to say. The problem is exactly as he points out.

If indesign's link function cannot be ported to Illustrator, please do not change the behavior around links unnecessarily. It causes confusion and inefficiency.

If you can't fix it right away, just turn back the "Apply to All" checkbox.

To put it bluntly, the current proposal is redundant. It should be more intuitive.
