Illustrator crashes when I close 'place' window

No issues anywhere else, but if I go to 'place' an object and then cancel the action, illustrator crashes. If I place an object there are no issues. I've cleaned the cache files and trashed prefs without success. I've also run font doctor and tried disabling user fonts in case it might be a corruption issue. Below is the crash log. I hope someone can explain what it means.

Already done that sig, cheers.
Just wondered if anyone here might have an insight. Turns out that this is a known bug in AI10 - guess we'll just have to not click 'cancel'.

  • Illustrator Crashing when using the "Place Image"  Command

    I my efforts to keep my software updated, I ran and installed all of the Adobe CS 3 updates this morning. Since then, any time I attempt to use the Place command Illy immediately crashes. I don't even get far enough to tell it what I'm trying to place, so I don't think this is can be the image I'm placing.
    When I have had issues with Illy in the past, reinstalling from the original disk seemed to fix things, but not this time. I have reinstalled twice now, but it changes nothing. I can copy and paste the images in just fine, but I cannot use the place command without a crash.
    Any ideas anyone? I really could use some help...
    Thank you in advance for your time -

    Nini's probably right. But I remember having the same sort of trouble in Illy5. There was some sort of conflict between Acrobat and Illy so that when you had been using Acrobat and then switched back to Illy it became impossible to place images or select already placed images without Illy crashing. The crash was so pervasive that you had to restart your machine to get things back on track; it wasn't enough to just restart Illy. We never discovered the reason but the problem disappeared on upgrading to Illy6.

  • Flash quits when you close the window

    Why does Flash CS5 quit when you close the window you were working in? It has to restart every time you close and open a file.

    This doesn't seem to be a crashing issue. The program seems to be designed like Windows, wherein the application quits when you close the last open window. This is incredibly annoying and completely unacceptable.

    I am using Mozilla Beta 4. I volunteered to try it out. It's lightning fast. I really love using it. I see there is a new version of Firefox should I download it??

    I HAVE NOW SOLVED THE PROBLEM BY RUNNING WINDOWS REGISTRY REPAIR TOOL WHICH HAS OBVIOUSLY REPAIRED CORRUPT REGISTRY FILES.

  • I have my FireFox browser set to delete the history when I close the window. It was working for a while and has recently just stopped with no changes to the settings.

    I have my FireFox browser set to delete all the history when I close the window. It was working for a very long time and has recently stopped with no changes to the settings. This has happened once before and I deleted FireFox and re-downloaded it, that solved the problem for a short period of time but the issue has come up again. How can I fix this?

    Can you check your configuration again? Maybe something went pear-shaped somewhere. It's located in Tools | Options | Privacy and then click the Settings button (see screenshot).

    Why does Illustrator crash when saving to a new location on my new MacPro 13" Retina Pro running Yosemite?

    That won't do. What I mean is you have to navigate to the file and make it active in pastebin and then copy the highlighted line like this
    and paste that into your reply.

  • Firefox will close when i close the window but the process doesn't shutdown ever since i had updated to FF25

    I am running Win. 8.1 and had no issues with FF 24. Since upgrading to FF 25, firefox will appear closed when i close the window but the process doesn't shutdown. I have to go into Task Manager to end the process. I can then launch it again.

    SOLUTION (possible).
    Hi all. I had this problem as well. I currently run FF26. A week or so ago, out of nowhere FF wouldn't exit - the window would close but firefox.exe process would keep running in the background using about 50% of CPU. Not sure if it's connected, but just prior to that I clicked on a link on Facebook that looked like spam website, nothing happened, site loaded (sort of, all I saw was a msg - Please Wait...) but nothing happened, I have Eset antivirus and it monitors network traffic and files for viruses, so maybe it prevented my PC getting infected...
    So, I had this problem for a few days, was searching the net for solutions, but nothing seem to help. Then, just out of luck I did something that WORKED!
    Here's what I did. I noticed that svchost.exe was using a lot of CPU alongside with FF. I ran ProcessExplorer to see what might be connected to this process, the list was long and I didn't have any idea where to start, so what I did was - Right click on svchost process, choose Debug and dismiss the warning. In a few seconds svchost process quit and after that FF started closing properly.
    I had to re-enable all my plugins and themes I disabled prior, I also lost my history and preferences which I trashed in the process of searching for solution. But heck, it worked, hopefully for good. Now if someone could point out the real cause of this and fix it for everyone - that would be great. Cheers!

  • Is anybody else experiencing crashes when installing iTunes for Windows?

    Is anybody else experiencing crashes when installing iTunes for Windows?

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box (similar to those given above) are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • Illustrator crashes when using save as and changing the save location yosemite OS

    I am having a problem with illustrator crashing when using save as to save a file to another location than the one it was previously saved in. It will save to the same location just fine but on macbook pro with yosemite os it crashes immediately when i change the save location.  Tried reinstall and also tried other users and still does it. Any solutions?

    Hi Parisian tiger
    What happens when you try to open any file from the same location where you are saving the file using Save As command ?
    Will it be possible to join a connect session with me ?
    Please do let me know about your time availability ?

  • I can't re-enable the save and quit option when i close a window

    When you close a window, there appears a window containing the options: Save and close, close without saving and cancel, and a box that says do not ask again. Well, a friend checked this last option by accident and now every time I close when I open again I see the same pages where I was before closing. My question is: Is there any way to re-enable the option to exit without saving?

    In the [[Location bar autocomplete|Location bar]], type '''about:config''' and press Enter . The about:config "This might void your warranty!" warning page may appear. Click I'll be careful, I promise! , to continue to the about:config page.
    Search for the preference '''browser.tabs.warnOnClose''', and double-click on it which should set the value to '''true'''

  • PROGRESS_INDICATOR comes when I close QUERY_FIND window

    Hi,
    I have developed a custom form in R12 and used query_find window in it. Query_find window is working fine but when I close this window PROGRESS_INDICATOR comes and form does not close.
    What should I do to close the PROGRESS_INDICATOR WINDOW?
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards
    Farooq

    Hi
    1. please check navigation sequence , set your window top lead (over progress_window)
    2. make sure your first window were link to your content canvas (properties in windows and canvas)
    for example , one window named MAIN_WINDOW and one canvas named MAIN_CANVAS
    check MAIN_WINDOW properties : primary canvas with value MAIN_CANVAS ,   and check MAIN_CANVAS properties : window with value : MAIN_WINDOW

  • Illustrator crashes when I try to open it

    Illustrator crashes when I try to open it.

    I've been experiencing this issue too. I run CC on OS 10.6.8 with Extensis Fusion 4. I discovered Fusion 4 is not compatible with CC and have since upgraded to Fusion 5. Illustrator was still crashing, but I found in the forums that the Verdana font had to be activated in the System folder. I tried to install it there, but couldn't figure out how to do that, so I just activated it in the Font Library. After that, Illustrator opened.
    You can find out more about this by doing a search for "Illustrator CC crash at launch" in the forum sections.

  • Illustrator crashes when I attempt to launch

    Hello,

    any solution?

    Hi All,
    If AI CC 2014 is crashing on launch, then please send me the crash logs at [email protected] including the link of the Forum Thread where your post is listed.
    For WIN please create a DMP file using the Task Manager (Right Click on the Adobe Illustrator CC and select the option Create Dump File) when AI displays the crash dialog. Please send this to me using any free File sharing websites and do not use the mail to send me this file as the size is more than 600MB.

  • Firefox crashes when I close a tab

    Frequently, but not always Firefox will crash when I close a tab. I might have 3 - 7 tabs open and I can move between them or refresh one without a problem but if I click on the 'X' to close the tab I get a message saying firefox has stopped working. When I restart I am asked if I want to restore. If I do I can close the tab I was trying to close earlier without a problem.
    I am running Vista Home Premium - completely up to date on a QC50 laptop This isn't happening on my Win 7 desktop. Firefox & all extensions are up to date (this didn't start happening until I updated to 5.0.1)

    News 1. Mozilla has told me that there will be a fix by the end of the month. 2. I have asked Mozilla to contact me as soon as the fix is available. 3. I will monitor Norton and Firefox from 08:00 to 17:00 CT and update this forum entry when the fix becomes available. 4. Because the most current release of Firefox is 18.0.1, most future updates will be done to forum entry
