I need to use the infinity symbol in Illustrator but it is not available in Illustrator in CS5 running on Windows 8.1. It is available in Illustrator 10 running on Windows XP. Is there any way to access the INFINITY character under fonts in Illustrator in CS5 (Windows 8.1)?

Thank you for your suggestion. But I do not know how to access UNICODE. How do I download Unicode fonts?
Also I have a problem working copying illustrations from Illustrator launched from CS5. The illustration does not copy correctly into FrameMaker 10 with Windows 8.1. However, the illustration copies correctly if I use Illustrator 10 in my computer with Windows XP. How do I solve this?
When I called Adobe I was just told that they do not support CS5.

I can't start Illustrator CC on Windows 8.1 64bit.

I can't start Illustrator CC on Windows 8.1 64bit.

I've installed some apps (Photoshop, InDesign, Flash, Dreamweaver, Acrobat, Muse) from Cloud and they work correctly. When I try to run Illustrator there's an infromation on screen (error raport) that Illustrator can't work 'cos of system operation language (cannot run with Unicode).
I don't know what to do in this case?
My system is Windows 8.1 64bit.
Language is Polish, could it be bacause of that?

Illustrator 10 and Window Vista

Hi!
I installed Illustrator 10 on window vista and it does not work.
The message that I get is "Illustrator has stopped working".
I tried to go to Right-click on the Illustrator.exe file, choose properties, click the compatibility tab, and then select...
Disable Visual Themes
Disable Desktop Composition
Disable display scaling on high DPI machines
However, it did not solve the problem.
is anyone having the same thing and have any solution for it?
Thanks in advance!!!

I am using Vista 64 bit and attempting to open Illustrator 9.0. I also experienced the same problem where Illustrator would attempt to open, but then I would receive a message saying that it stopped working. My solution was to follow the instructions provided by Harron to right click on the Illustrator executable file and go to Properties and then select certain settings on the Compatibility tab (Disable Visual Themes, Disable Desktop Composition, and Disable Display Scaling on High DPI Settings)....
BUT I had to make one more change in order to get the program to open properly: Check the box where it says Run this program in compatibility mode for Windows XP (Service Pack 2). Voila! It worked. I think this may also work for Illustrator 10. At least you can give it a try if you still aren't able to open the older Illustrator application. I tried everything and this was the only resolution that got it to finally work for me.

Issues with illustrator 10 and windows 8

any known issues with illustrator 10 and windows 8...version worked fine on windows xp....new computer with windows 8....now cannot seem to operate. Loads, and shows access but will NOT start up. help ! thanx ttp74

AI 10 is now 10 years or so old and was never tested on nor designed for Win 7 or Win 8. You should simply assume it's not compatible and will never run properly. feel free to spend your time with the compatibility modes and al lsorts of hacking with the security stuff and otehr settings, but to be honest, it will probably be a waste of time.

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.

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.

Hi; i have questions in Illustrator cs6 in windows 8:

hi; i have questions in Illustrator cs6 in windows 8:
adobe illustrator has detected some registry association issues, which need to be rectified for illustrator to work properly. to fix this, right click illustrator.exe and select "run as administrator" to have the required privileges. illustrator will then attempt to correct this problem.
I, of course, choose yes and everything starts up with no problem. I close Illustrator and start it up again and I get the same error. I can use Illustrator with no problems, but this error comes up every single time I start Illustrator.

Issue: Adobe Illustrator has detected some registry association issues, which need to be rectified for Illustrator to work properly. To fix this, right click Illustrator.exe and select "Run as Administator" to have the required privileges. Illustrator will then attempt to correct this problem
If this is happening on non admin accounts the below solution can fix the issue.
Resolution: Make the user an administrator and open the Illustrator then removed the administrator rights and if you launch the application again, it will use the registry created in admin mode and this will corrected the problem.

agtest,
I believe it is no longer possible to download a CS6 trial at the Adobe site.

Installing Illustrator 7 onto Windows 7

I'm sure it's been asked before but how can I install Illustrator 7 onto Windows 7?

Thank you both, it confirms what I suspected. As the latter versions of Illustrator are too expensive it looks like I am going to have to dust off my old Win Xp pc. Cheers.

Can I use Illustrator 9 with Windows 7 OS?

Can I use Illustrator 9 with windows 7 OS?

taciadomrose,
You may need to run the computer in XP mode to install it (you may try in normal mode first). Here is how:
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/install-and-use-windows-xp-mode-in-windows-7
Once installed, you should be able to get it to run with the PC in normal mode as follows (first run):
1) RightClick the shortcut;
2) Click Properties;
3) Click Compatibility;
4) Tick Run this program in Compatibility mode for, then select XP in the dropdown list;
5) Start AI9.
After that, you can just DoubleClick the shortcut.

Calling Illustrator from a Windows Service

Hello,
A project I'm working on has an internal document conversion process that uses Adobe Illustrator. The conversion script is in Javascript and uses the Illustrator SDK to go through the document and extract some information. We have a script that initiates this by calling Illustrator and instructing it to run the Javascript file. This whole process works well.
To make this easier for people to use, we have a program that runs on a server and watches a special directory. When a file is dropped into that directory, this program notices, runs the script, and saves the output in another folder. This process works well, too.
To ensure that this program stays running and starts immediately when the system boots, we would like to run it as a Windows Service. This is where we run into trouble. Our program runs fine as a service, except that when we call Illustrator, it just hangs without executing our script.
I don't see any output or error messages that would help us diagnose the problem.
I was wondering if anybody else had tried calling Illustrator from a Windows Service, and maybe had some suggestions for getting it working?
Thanks!
-----Scott.

I'm afraid I don't know anything that might help you on this one. I wouldn't have thought Illustrator was doing anything that unusual that might cause running from a Service grief. The only two suggestions I can think of are ones you may already have tried:
1) check the event viewer -- there might be something there that doesn't show up in stderr or stdout
2) Try posting in the Scripting forum; it feels like they might be more likely to have tried something like this than people in here. This is typically for plugin development, thoug I don't blame you at all for posting here -- it certainly would have seemed worth a shot to me Anyways, the AI Scripting forum is in:
http://forums.adobe.com/community/illustrator/illustrator_scripting
Hopefully someone there will have tried this and can help you out. Good luck!
