Illustrator CC 2014 is slow.

It works fine until I have to work with a very detailed design. Then it is impossible to work with. The system will lag and hold and lag and hold and I can't click and drag with precision. Very frustrating, I've been reading others complain about this issued but I had no resolution. I have assignments due and I can't finish them, because of this issued.

    illustrator cc 2014 running slow, how can I make it quicker? file size is only 45.7 meg, I've newly installed a 512 gig solid state drive and 8 meg of ram into a mid 2009 Macbook pro. Surely it can go quicker than this.... help please.

  • Illustrator cc 2014 extremely slow

    We have been using Illustrator cc with acceptable speed. But with cc 2014, the Illustrator becomes very slow. This does not happen with Photoshop cc 2014. We finally have to remove the illustrator cc 2014. Meanwhile, Photoshop cc 2014 is normal. Anyone has similar experience ? Any idea about the fix ?

    Hello,
    Will it be possible for you to join my connect room: Adobe Connect Login at 9:00 AM Pacific Time today? or please let me know any convenient time for you folks. I would like to debug your system to isolate the issue.

  • Illustrator cc 2014 sluggish performance, old cc works fine

    i have a file in adobe illustrator cc 2014 that has a texture layer, i.e. a lot of little white specks. when i try to move/resize/anything this object, i get the lovely color spin wheel and everything grinds to a halt. illustrator cc 2014 slows, and i can't move or scale these objects. any other objects i can move about and scale fine. now if i open these exact same files in the previous adobe illustrator cc...it works just fine; silky smooth. no issues whatsoever. this is a small file, only 960 pt x 560 pt, and i'm on a monster machine: iMac 3.4 GHz i7 quad core with 32 GB RAM. Why am i having these performance issues in illustrator cc 2014?
    also...extra frustrating...can't get the Help Chat to work. I've tried both Safari and Chrome...click the Start Chat button...nothing...not cool.

    Hello Ashli315,
    Did you install any 3rd party plugins to your AICC 2014 installation? Or did you install any software say any font management software which might be causing the clash. Or was there any Windows update which got installed after which the crash started happening?
    Thanks!

  • Problems installing Illustrator CC (2014) and InDesign CC (2014) on OS X Yosemite

    I'm currently having problems installing Illustrator CC (2014) and InDesign CC (2014) on OS X Yosemite. Both applications fail with the message "Installation Failed: The download appears corrupted. Please try again after a few minutes.(-60)".
    I've tried uninstalling Illustrator CC and InDesign CC and then reinstalling, but still get the same error message. Other applications in Creative Cloud all install without issues.
    Has anyone else experienced this issue and resolved it please?

    Sorry for the slow response. My Mac wouldn't boot following a failed Yosemite update. I've since reinstalled Yosemite but the exact same problem persists. My Mac is standalone and not on a managed network.
    Thank you for the troubleshooting link. I've tried the recommended fix for the -60 error but it doesn't appear to be possible to download the trial version of Illustrator or InDesign for CC editions. They just trigger the Creative Cloud installer and shortly after the -60 error again.
    The problem is still specific to Illustrator and InDesign and I've tried uninstalling all Creative Cloud applications and reinstalling. Every reinstalls except InDesign and Illustrator.

  • Adobe Illustrator CC 2014 won't open under my current admin profile.

    I recently installed Adobe CC 2014 suite on my Windows 7 OS. All the programs open properly with the exception of Illustrator CC. The error message I get is:
    Adobe Illustrator CC 2014 has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.
    Since receiving this message I have gone through other forum posts and have tried all (below) with no remedy.
    Uninstalled using Windows Uninstall Program followed by Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool and reinstalled. (I’ve done this numerous times. I also removed any prior software versions (CS5) along with preceding software preferences.)
    All of my OS drivers have been updated.
    Monitor, Processor and GPU Drivers are updated. NOTE: I’m running an Intel Core i7 960 3.2GHz processor and an AMD Radeon HD 6700 Series GPU.
    I’m running my workstation as an admin user, however created a shared user group so InDesign would open properly. (This was my other problem I was having up until a few hours ago.)
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled both Verdana and Tahoma TTF fonts.
    I am not running or have installed any 3rd party plug-ins.
    I read a forum post that said you can get around this problem by creating a new admin account. I did and was able to open Illustrator under that profile; however I’m still unable to open it under my existing admin account. How can I get around this? There must be a way to get Illustrator to open in my current account.
    Any help in this area would be greatly appreciated. I’m now on day No. 2 trying to get this solved.

    Hello Mylenium,
    Is this what you need to determine what is causing Illustrator CC to crash upon opening the program?

  • Hi - I am looking for the Adobe Illustrator 2014 1.2 (or .0.2) bugfix update for Mac - and it is not visible in the Adobe Creative Cloud Packager (Mac version). The only update visible is Illustrator CC 2014.1  - which is what introduced the bugs.

    Hi
    I have discovered that my question above is a non-question. A user triggered by looking at the below article about Illustrator 2014 cc 17.0.2
    http://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/release-note/illustrator-17-0-2-release-notes.html 
    He had recently upgraded from wht we now know is 18.0 to 18.1 which is the latest version. He read the above artic
    le and supposed that it was a bug fix release for his version - because the v17 ov18 number is not often displayed. It is usually just 2014 CC.
    I have asked him to post a bug report about Adobe Illustrator CC 2014.1

  • Illustrator CC (2014) update now instantly crashes application?

    Hello,
    I updated my CC (2014) - Illustrator, Bridge and Photoshop Apps via the Creative Cloud App this morning.

    I've tricked it a few times, by creating a new document, then trying again to reopen an existing file... it opens and crashes instantly with the below error message.

    j,
    Did you reinstall the full three step way, see 6) in the list, and did you delete font caches (see item 11) under 5) in the list?
    The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file, and when it is not caused by issues with opening a file from external media. You may have tried/done some of them already; 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
    If possible/applicable, you should save current artwork first, of course.
    1) Close down Illy and open again;
    2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to at least 5 times);
    3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
    4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible), for CS3 - CC you may find the folder here:
    https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/kb/preference-file-location-illustrator.html
    5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
    Even more seriously, you may:
    6) Uninstall (ticking the box to delete the preferences), run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

  • I want to use Hebrew fonts in Illustrator CC 2014

    Hello - I have installed Illustrator CC 2014 in both the English and English/Hebrew versions and still can't seem to get my Hebrew fonts to work. No matter what I try, any verbiage I type is still showing as roman characters. Any tips or advice?

    I also need larger text in tabs.

  • How can I turn off the Illustrator CC 2014 hello screen permanently?

    I just upgraded to Illustrator CC 2014, and I'm somewhat baffled by the apparent inability to turn off the hello screen. Maybe it's easy, but I don't see how to do it.
    Under the "Help" menu I do see a check mark beside "Hello...", but clicking it does not turn the hello screen off. When I shut down the screen using the red x in the panel's upper left corner, it does go away, and it can be turned back on using the "Help" menu entry. I just don't want it to appear... ever. I'd love to be able to use Illustrator the way I want to and not feel the need to close that superfluous panel every time I open the software.
    Thanks ahead of time for any input.

    @ThePorge - are you sure you're looking at the bottom of the "Getting Started", "New Features", or "Tips & Techniques" panel?  You'll need to scroll down to the bottom of them to see the footer where this checkbox is located.  (Its not in the Create panel at all.)  If you can't find it, its possible the software thinks you're a trial user for some reason.  Do you see a Days Left in Your Trial countdown in the upper right corner of the Welcome screen?  That would indicate it thinks you're a trial user.  Can you attach a screen shot?

  • Pantone colour books missing in Illustrator CC 2014

    Hi,
    I am having an issue in Illustrator CC 2014 with a specific Pantone colour book.
    The 'Pantone 4-color process guide coated Euro' guide does not show up in the colour books menu. The Pantone colour reference numbers such as DE 35-1 C and DE 156-2 C do not appear in any of the colour books.
    Is my Pantone colour guide outdated, or am I missing something?
    Thank you!

    Never mind.  I finally just closed Illustrator and opened it back up, and TA-DA! It's back...just more weirdness from an Adobe product...I should have guessed so.

  • New Host Adapter plugin for Illustrator CC 2014?

    I'm seeing that the Host Adapter plugin for Illustrator CC does not work for Illustrator CC 2014.  I've checked that the AIHostAdapater.aip file is installed in the correct AI CC 2014 folder.  But calling AIEventAdapater.getInstance().pingPlugIn() always results in "pingTimedOut".
    Is there a new AIHostAdapater plugin forthcoming for Illustrator CC 2014?  Or is it available somewhere to download?  It is not available as an update through Extension Builder.

    Hi Brian,
    You can download the CC2014 host adapter plugins for Illustrator from the following URL
