Illustrator CS5 won't stay open it shuts down when started?

I have the CS5 creative suite and I bought it when it was first available. I have used it for several years with no major problems. In the past two days every time I start up my Illustrator program it goes through all the start up proceedures and as soon as it has come up it shuts the program down. I am on a MAC and I am experienced with the computer.

Hi again,
OK, I added a new user account and Illustrator opened just fine in the new account. Can you tell me why and what I will have to do in the original account to get Illustrator to work again?

    Hi,
    my Mini has been also suddenly shutting down. Power light goes off. Not at start-up. First it lasts longer, but gradually, as I restart it, it gradually takes less and less time to suddenly shut down. Or yesterday, for example, I tryied starting it up and not touching it. It lasted for hours. Thought it was cured. Then I popped a CD in and opened iTunes. Didn't take to long before it was shutting down all of a sudden. It would seem not to be able to take any activity. Here is a Console Message I run a few days ago:
    (in the meanwhile I'll try Safe Mode)

  • After installing Photoshop, it opens but shuts down when files are opened.

    Photoshop installed from CS5. After opening new document or opening an image it closes with a message saying "Adobe CS 5 has stopped working"
    It has been uninstalled and re installed several times.

    try resetting preferences by holding down shift-ctrl-alt (win) or shift-cmd-alt (mac) while starting ps.  you'll see a confirmation dialog if done correctly.
    if that fails uninstall, clean and reinstall per, Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6

  • Skype 7.0 shuts Down When Starting

    Hello, I'm having a problem with skype. I get the error message that Skype has encountered a problem and needs to restart. But every time I restart, the same message pops up.
    I tried the solution from the following thread:
    http://community.skype.com/t5/Windows-archive/Skyp​e-crashes-after-login/m-p/410337/highlight/true#M3​...
    But I couldn't find any of the files listed on my computer. I then tried to use previous versions of Skype (6.2 and then 5.6), as well as uninstalling and reinstalling Skype. But those didn't work either, and I kept getting the same error message as the first time I tried it.
    This is the error code I get:
    Faulting application name: Skype.exe, version: 7.0.0.102, time stamp: 0x54897 add Faulting module name: Skype.exe, version: 7.0.0.102, time stamp: 0x54897add Exception code: 0xc0000005 Fault offset: 0x00ac982a Faulting process id: 0x2438 Faulting application start time: 0x01d02aec3eb05f17 Faulting application path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Skype\Phone\Skype.exe Faulting module path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Skype\Phone\Skype.exe Report Id: 89454d62-96df-11e4-8459-c0f8daea7b56

  • IBooks won't stay open?

    Help, my iBooks won't stay open. I was trying to download a ebook and now the app won't stay open

    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray BEFORE doing the reset.

  • CS4: Collapsed panels won't stay open

    I messed up my regular workspace view and reverted to a preset and noticed the collapsed panels won't stay open when expanded. I'm not sure if this is how it used to work, but it just feels wrong.
    Let's say I want to move an object to another layer. I click on the collapsed Layer-panel icon to open it, then select (click) the object on artboard and Layer panel collapses back to icon. Then I need to click the panel icon again to open it and now I can move the object to another layer, but layer panel collapses again when I select another objet.
    I remember having this same UI problem with Flash CS4. Have I messed up some setting, or is this really how UI works in Illustrator? I would like to save screenspace by having panels collapsed and only keeping open the one I need. InDesign works like this, keeping expanded panels open until they are collapsed again.

    Thank you! It must've have switched on when I reverted to another screenset, because I can't remember ever seeing this setting (or even reading about it).
