I just upgraded my iMac from Snow Leapord to Mavaricks 10.9 and Illustrator CS6 or Illustrator CC will not respond when you try and open a file. I tried Clicking on File/Open and also Cmd+O and it will not bring up the open dialog and will not respond and I have to force quit the program. If you double click on a file it opens but when you try and save it, the same thing happens, not responding and have to force quit. It also happen in Photoshop.

I have used PEDIT to join multiple polylines, which now appear as polylines. But when I use QSELECT to show all open (non-closed) section, one polyline still shows up as open.
I've attached the file I'm working on. The polyline in question is the green outline on the object on the right.

Since some updates ago Illustrator CC hangs every few seconds. It is hard to work with it. It seems the problem occurs only with files where other files placed/included. Illustrator is reading data from the network, every few seconds.
All my files are on a Synology NAS. Just I have setup a complete clean new system. No changes. The problem is still there.Using a PC with a 3.5G i7, 32GB Ram.

I have a client that installed CS6 Productiom Premium with a volume license on multiple Mac Pros and is saying that Illustrator hangs upon launch, meaning, it will take 1-2 minutes to launch the program. Out of all the computers he has installed the software with, one does not have an issue with start-up and launches almost immediately. He is currently looking on his end what is different on that machine compared to the others.
I have walked him through the steps in deleting his Font cache and resetting his preferences and he still reports a hang-up on launch.
He has Mac Pros with Lion on them.

I posted another thread yesterday trying to figure this issue out. Illustrator does NOT actually crash, instead it hangs and simply becomes unresponsive when trying to open a handful of files. I have been reading other threads similar to this and have addressed all of the issues that seemed to have resolved the problem for other people, i.e. reset preferences, reinstalled illlustrator several times and removed preferences, etc. I do have a Wacom Bamboo tablet, but I have removed the driver and files from my Mac. But, it seems odd that the Wacom plugin would cause only a select handful of files to become unresponsive. I have a lot of work that needs to be done but I can't take a step further without Illustrator working properly!

I was working on a file this morning and saved it in .Ai format. This afternoon I came back to work on it again and now it won't open. Illustrator hangs, and then stops responding. Is there a way I can fix this?

I got a shape locked on the screen and can't unlock it.It is just a rectangle with 2 rounded corners. It has a strange shadow... I don't recall doing that shape ever, I was switching among Illustrator and Photoshop and in a second it just appeared.I tried many alternatives but still can't get rid off it. It is in every new file I make. It doesn't respond to zoom in/out. If I switch to outline view it stays the same, even with the shadow.I recorded a video.

I have a few users which are all experiencing the same issue. They didn't seem to have this issue until upgrading from CS5 to CS6.
Basically AI stops responding (usually permanantly hangs and requires restarting app) for at least 30 seconds when trying to copy an image from AI into PS. The method they're using is to directly select the image from AI and then simply paste directly into PS (I know there are other methods of doing this but this is apparently the way they have always done it).
Their machines are very well spec'd
OS - Win7 64-bit
RAM - 8 to 32GB!
CPU - i7 INTEL
GPU - Standard (but compatible) and has latest drivers but disabled by PS as i suspect it's not quite grunty enough?
Win7 has been fully updated as well as all Adobe products / Drivers etc...
I have tweaked both AI & PS (including the File Handling & Clipboard setting which enables AICB) for better performance. I think I have basically tried everything and confused as this wasn't a problem when they were using CS5?

We are having an issue with CS4 and CS6 with a couple of users who are using Windows 7 64bit. Previously the users were using CS4 on Windows XP 32 bit.
The program seems to open ok and the user is able to create, save and open new files, the issue seems to be when the users try to open files that they previously created. The behavior they see is that the files take between 5 and 10 mins to open (even if stored locally) and the programs hangs when they then try to do anything with the files.
The are using the same hardware, the only difference being that the OS has been migrated to Windows 7 64 bit. CS4 and CS6 were then installed cleanly onto the machines.The users have the same issue with both CS4 and CS6 with their existing files.

Since last thursday we have been having major issues opening files from our network share on server 2012. Everytime we go to open an .ai it hangs illustrator for about 15-20 seconds?
This has only started happening to all 3 machines we have
Our network is 1GB links, 2 of our computers are massive spec, i5's 16gb ddr3 1600, ssds......., other one slightly older ddr2 no ssd (problem exists on them all)
If we drag the file to the desktop then open, this is instant but reading from the server is being a nightmare!

I'm having a problem that whenever I used Arabian language which I have bought from a company named Scribedoor, the illsutrator will hang on me. Sometimes, after I had saved the file it will be corrupted.
I've having stuck here as Scibedoor technical support does not support my region.

Illustrator CS4: My arrow keys do not function with the polar grid tool. I cannot increase/decrease the number of rays or circles using my arrow keys. They are just dead in the water.

I don't know the right keywords. If I make an art brush, say two solid rectangles when I apply this to a shape such as a square or star, there is a corner/point that doesn't seem connected, I get a gap/split. I'm guessing it is where the brush has started/ended along the path. These shapes are closed though right? Is there a way to avoid the gap/split? I noticed if I use the pen tool to give the point handles it'll seem connected, however now the shape is not a corner.
I know I can also use the appearance panel and set two strokes aligned along the outside, but this does not seem easy to update sizes, say I had 7 strokes for a rainbow for example each at 5 pt and wanted to update that to 7pt I would have to manually update each one? I also don't think I can use the appearance panel to set up a gradient stroke that flows along the path, such as a square with rounded corners applied, when I tried with the appearance panel it was as if it was masking a gradient beneath it.
I am using CS6, though I'm planning to switch to CC.

In Illustrator CC my merge command doesn't seem to be working correctly. Instead of merging two closed paths into one it seems to be trimming them, or slicing them. I stupidly thought it was an update to the feature and have been trying to get my head around using it but I've just shown my colleagues and they assure me it's not right.

I'm trying to combine two closed, filled arcs to make a 3 sided image with a large arc at the top and a small one at the bottom. I need to knock out the extra fill along the outside of the small arc at the bottom which is the point where the large connects. I'm also unfortunately still using CS2 ans using XP. I've tried many combinations using the pathfinder tools as well as setting them up as compound paths and masks.

Setting a stroke profile (variable line width) on a closed shape changes the stroke width from narrow to wide. I would like to have the "wide" width in a different place and a "narrow" width somewhere else. I guess a way to do this would be to change the node orders of the closed shape?

I am developing a plugin for Illustrator CS5, 6. I have a scenario which requires the plugin to place a text frame inside a closed path art. How can I calculate the proper destination coordinates? The path art can be a curve or a rectangle, any shape. I need to place the text frame inside the path such that no part of the text frame overlaps the boundaries of the path art.
I looked at the forum and found the following thread: [URL] .....
Here, its stated that the method AIPathfinderSuite::DoFrontMinusBackEffect of the API did the required task. I tried the same but couldn't get it to work.
My first preference is to use the Illustrator SDK, not any third party libraries.

I'm using Illustrator CS6.I'm working with closed paths on an illustrated character. I have a leg overlapping a body for example. The leg is essentially a 4 sided shape but I only want a stroke on 3 sides. On the 4th side I don't want a stroke on it so that the leg blends with the body. I first thought about using the shape builder tool to merge the 2 shapes to see what that would look like but they won't merge for some reason.
Then I tried to use the width tool to drop the stroke on the 4th side down to a 0 width for the side I want ... but that didn't work either.how I can change a closed shape so that a section of the shape has a different stroke colour (i.e. none!) from the rest of the shape?

I have a stringy object which is a single closed path. The fill disappears where it overlaps itself. Can I prevent that?

Draw closed paths with the Pencil toolSelect the Pencil tool.Position the tool where you want the path to begin, and start dragging to draw a path.After you’ve begun dragging, hold down Alt (Windows) or Option (Mac OS). The Pencil tool displays a small circle (and, in InDesign, a solid eraser) to indicate that you’re creating a closed path.When the path is the size and shape you want, release the mouse button (but not the Alt or Option key). After the path closes, release the Alt or Option key.You don’t have to position the cursor over the starting point of the path in order to create a closed path; if you release the mouse button in some other location, the Pencil tool will close the shape by creating the shortest possible line back to the original point.it doesn't for me. after i start drawing and i hold the option key, it goes to drawing a straight line. i don't hold the key till after i start drawing lit says.
same thing with the connect two paths. holding the command key doesn't change the behavior of the pencil tool.i'm guessing there is no way of remapping the 'smooth tool' to option again? or was it moved to another hotkey?

I've made a pattern brush that I'm using to simulate a woods line for a boardgame map:
Shown above is the unstroked bounding box as well. To use this brush, I draw an outline of a woods mass with the pencil tool, then apply the brush and Expand Appearance. At that point I'm hoping the brush sections will join into one closed path so that I can fill it with a woodsy green, but instead the fill gets applied to each section of brush independently:
The join points seem fine - it's not like the two ends of the brush don't line up at all: EDIT - Actually, that's not just one point in the middle there - that's the ends of both paths lying almost on top of each other. It's possible to separate the two and then ctrl-J join them. Problem is, I want that single path automatically.
So how to get Illustrator to treat the resulting path as one closed path instead of a compound path?

I have a series of very basic closed paths, doodles which intersect on another. I'd like to remove part of the intersection so that it'll appear that there's a whole devided into doodles, with no double lines. I know it might be simple but I can try here until the end of time...
