Adobe Illustrator 7.0 & Windows 7

Illustrator Version 7.0 of course is already an older version and the problem is that it is not possible to use it with Windows 7.
Because i am opening only 1 file with this program it would be useful to know, if there is an Adobe tool which is allowing just to open
Illustrator files like it is possible with the free Adobe Acrobat Reader or if i have to update/ actualize the program itself.
Thanks a lot for your advices !

Hi !
It´s been a while since you asked the question but I´ve found that if you
install Windows Virtual PC, it allows you to install 16-bit applications
to run within Windows 7.  Best is to upgrade to a newer version of Illustrator
though, but the solution saves you money.   The Windows Virtual PC-application
is free to download from Microsoft.   Good luck!
Best regards!
Anders

  • Cannot drag, delete or cut adobe illustrator files in windows vista

    Hello All
    I am using adobe illustrator cs in windows vista and i get the following error when i try to delete, move or cut illustrator files:
    'The action can't be completed because the file is open in another program'
    It was working when i first started using it but now it just doesn't work at all.
    All solutions will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    yb

    It's not just a Vista thing. I frequently encounter the problem in both Windows XP and Vista with CS3 versions of Illustrator, InDesign, and Acrobat files.
    I've heard no report yet as to whether this is fixed in CS4.

  • Adobe Illustrator CS3 on Windows XP Pro

    Please Help! When I open Illustrator it works beautifully and does computer with other processes. When I try to save my work either with save or save as Illustrator freezes. other programs continue to work. can only close Illustrator by manual shut-down of entire computer. Please help - anyone
    Thanks,
    Carol

    A little late on the discussion but here's how to solve this issue (for those still having it and for those that will eventually run into it):
    Go to My Computer - Control Panel - Regional and Language Options. On the Languages tab, click on Details - Key Settings - Change Key Combination (or something like that, my OS is not in English) and uncheck both boxes. You'll notice that the key combination set is one that we tend to use quite a lot in Illustrator...

  • Adobe Illustrator CS3: Fatal error during installation

    Hello,
    I just bought the AI CS3. It installed OK on my friend's laptop (windows). However, when I clicked the big button in the installation:
    "Install Adobe Illustrator CS3"
    A window showed:
    Initializing Adobe Illustrator...
    Then I got a message:
    "Setup has encountered an error and cannot continue. Contact Adobe customer Support for assistance. Fatal error during installation".
    I've tried several times. My computer meets all the requirements (it's a really new and faster PC). And there's no old versions of AI on it yet.
    Can anyone help? Thanks!!!

    Do you have any other Adobe products on your computer? When I installed CS3 on my Mac, I kept getting failures. After contacting Adobe, they told me I had to delete ALL other Adobe products -- including Flash and Adobe Reader. Plus, I had to do searches and delete any support files associated with them. It took hours!

  • Everytime I open Adobe Illustrator CC it says ''Adobe Illustrator CC has stopped working.''

    Everytime I open Adobe Illustrator CC it says ''Adobe Illustrator CC has stopped working.''

    Hi Joshh,
    Can you share the crash dump with me.
    The steps to get the crash dump file are:
    Open the “Task Manager” when the Adobe Illustrator CC crash window is displayed.
    In the Task Manager window right-click on the name/string “Adobe Illustrator CC” and select the option “Create Dump File” in the context menu
    It will display a dialog which says that it will create a file “Illustrato.dmp” in your “Temp” folder. Click on OK to create this. Wait for the action to get this completed.
    Once the above file gets completed you can have this file by typing “%temp%” in your “Run” window (press “window button + r” on the keyboard). On clicking the enter key the TEMP folder can be opened.
    Look there for the file name “Illustrator.dmp” and share it with [email protected] using dropbox.
    With Best Regards,
    Raghuveer

  • I am trying to install adobe illustrator CS5 from cd but it will not install

    When I install it the message 'installer has failed to initialize' appears. It then advises to download the Adobe Support Advisor. I have done this but the advisor will not respond (I have already installed Adobe Air). I have also successfully run the Adobe cleaner tool.
    Any help please?
    Message was edited by: charisolivia

    Try downloading it and then run the installer.
    1. Navigate to Illustrator CS6 Downloads page : http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=illustrator
    2. Sign in with your Adobe ID.
    3. Copy and paste the following links on the address bar one at a time and hit enter :
    Adobe Illustrator CS5 English Windows
    http://trials2.adobe.com/AdobeProducts/ILST/15/win32/Illustrator_15_LS1.7z
    http://trials2.adobe.com/AdobeProducts/ILST/15/win32/Illustrator_15_LS1.exe
    4. Save both the files.
    5. Run the .exe file
    In case you still face issues
    Run the Creative Suite Cleaner Tool and clean out the temporary files created during install in your temp directory. Additioanlly, check your task manager and terminate any instances of setup.exe and msiexec.exe that may still be running

  • Adobe Illustrator CS6 has stopped working on Windows 7

    I've seen a few posts about this and I stall haven't seen it stop or a fix that works.
    I use Illustrator any length of time (up and running just a few minutes till up for weeks on end) and as soon as I quit (either by File -> Exit, the X in the corner or Alt -> F4) it closes panels and after a bit pops up that "Adobe Illustrator CS6 has stoppped working.  Microsoft is looking for a solution to this problem."
    It saves the recently opened files.  All settings seem to save as I don't need to reset them.  But of course its worrisome.
    Note:
    Everything has been unisnstalled and reinstalled 3 times.
    All permissions have always looked okay.
    I have tried running it as Administrator and still have had it happen
    Illustrator has been the only program of all the ones installed to have this issue.
    Are  there any fixes I've missed?  I'm a cloud client so have expected a patch for a while now to come out fixing this, as I've updated Illustrator a few times since starting using CS6.
    In looking in logs the constistent error has been:
    Faulting application name: Illustrator.exe, version: 16.2.0.723, time stamp: 0x50bb3ee0

    Do you have any other suggestions of other things to look at/try?

  • "Adobe Illustrator CC has stopped working" - Windows 7 64bit

    I have been struggling with this for weeks.
    After reinstalling multiple times, uninstalling Wacom drivers, etc. -- tracked it down to a plugin.
    The newest update for AI CC is not compatible with the Silhouette Studio plugin.
    Posting this in case it proves helpful to others.
    Not a happy camper over lost time and productivity, but fortunately I had my CS5 disks.

    Do you have a Silhouette cutter? If so, that is the problem. I've tried every troubleshooting & finally know now that is it. If you have Windows, go to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator CC (64 Bit)\Plug-ins    (Computer, then program files, adobe, adobe illustrator CC, plug ins. Delete the plug in that says scp_cc7
    Then reopen adobe illustrator.

  • Adobe Illustrator CS5 will not open in Windows Vista

    All I get is "Adobe Illustrator has stopped working"
    Then i get "A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available"
    I've tried reinstalling 6 times now, and it still wont work. I dont know where to start. Please help ASAP I have a presentation to submit!!

    I beleive you are looking at the right place ,
    Click the start Button
    At the bottom serach box , type "amt3.log" , does the file show up in the list , if no
    then I would say contact Adobe support ,and get this fixed.
    The problem could be either at the time of installation or launch.
    also can you share the install logs:-
    1 .Navigate to the log files in one of the following folders:
    Windows 32 bit (XP, Vista, 7): \Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Installers\
    Windows 64 bit (XP, Vista, 7): \Program Files(x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Installers
    The log filename includes the product name and install date, followed by ".log.gz." The extension .gz indicates a compressed format.
    Use a decompression utility such as Winzip or StuffIt to decompress the .gz file. Once uncompressed, the log file is a plain text file.     
    Open the .log file using WordPad (Windows)
    copy and paste the log file in the pastebin.com
