    Hi Melina ,

    Thanks for reporting this issue, Illustrator team really appreciate this.
    As per attached screen shot , for the selected Text object your fill is below the Characters in appearance panel.
    Can you kindly move the Fill above the characters and change fill. This will hopefully resolve your problem.
    In order to identify the root cause , can you kindly provide us eyedropper setting snapshot ,you can find eyedropper settings by double click on eyedropper tool .

    Thanks
    Anish

    I was able to find a way to fix this issue for me. Before selecting anything, I dropped down the "Type" window and clicked on "Legacy Text", then clicked "Update All Legacy Text", this will allow all text to be modified for a color change. After doing so, I was able to click the text and change its color with the fill tool.
