Illustrator CS6 has some bugs

I just got Illustrator and have been watching some tutorials to get me started. Anyway, I've been watching several tutorials on paths and the pen tool. I noticed that whenever I hover my cursor over the anchors, it doesn't say "anchor" or do anything at all. There are also some other problems with the pen tool. For instance, it won't bring up a menu when I click on it.
Last but not least, there is this VERY annoying large grey space that appears randomly when I use the Selection and Direct Select Tool. It works like a brush, when I move the cursor, it makes more large grey sections throughout the screen. Please, Please help me!

Windows Edition: Windows 7 Ultimate
System: 64-bit Operating system
Memory: 4096MB RAM
Driver Model: WDDM 1.1
Monitor: Generic PnP Monitor
if theres anything more you need pls ask. I tried the 32 bit version and it seemed to work just fine. Maybe I should just use that. WHat do you think?

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?
Edit: as a note, both Illustrator CS6 64bit and 32bit do this.
And both have same error:

IOS7 has some bugs, Swipe changing lock screen! iphonehassomebugs

Hi everyone,
Iphone has some bugs(Part 1)
Check this video for my very first bug experience,
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QK_nIq4b82s&feature=youtu.be
Steps to reproduce the issue:
1. Keep the lock screen wallpaper and the home screen wallpaper different,
2. Swipe right to unlock and swipe to the left immediately after you reach the right-end. Watch video for more reference.
Other bugs on the way! .
Regards,
Sathish.

Hmm, I have different wallpapers (one of my photo's for my lock screen and and just plain black for my home screen) and mine still does not do that.
Try setting them both to something different, but simple - say different colors of one of the default screens. Or just try one any pair of the default screens instead of your own custom pictures. Does it still do it? I cannot seem to get my iPhone to duplicate that no matter what I try with it.
You can submit the info to Apple at http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html but try and give them as much details as you can, of anything you have tried that either does not change the abnormal behaviour or that does fix it.

Exporting layout as Photoshop from Illustrator CS6 but some of the layers keep mergering

I have created a layout in Illustrator (CS6) and seperated the individual images I require into named layers. My intention is to export as a Photoshop file (keeping all the layers), then using 'Script' in Photoshop to 'Export layers to files..', so I can get automatically save all the elements in the layout as individual transparent png.
When I export the files as Photoshop a warning comings up saying that 'some layer have been merged' and then when I open this file in Photoshop, all but a couple of text layers have been merged into 1 layer. I think it's something to do with the transparencies set in Illustrator but don't know how to resove this.
If it can't be resolve in the method I am using at present, my only other option is to switch off all but 1 layer in Illustrator and export this layer as a png, but as I have many elements to the layout (including on and off states) and this is just one layout page of many, this manual way of export the files will take me forever!
If nobody know I way I can stop these layers from merger into one layer when exported to Photoshop, then maybe someone can suggest a way I can automatic export the layers I have set up in Illustrator, as transparent pngs in a simular way I can in Photoshop.
Any help anyone can give me would be MUCH appreciated, as I am on a short deadline for this project!
Julie

Layers are often merge becuase you've used transparency, blend modes, or other complex appearance settings in Illustrator. To ensure all layers export individually you should avoid the use of ANY and ALL transparency in AI and always export to the same color mode as your docuemnt.

Illustrator CS6 has stopped working on Exit....

Everytime I go to close Illustrator down, no matter the method. I get a message that Illustrator has stopped working and has to be forcefully closed. This happens any time I close Illustrator. I even uninstalled the entire CS6 package, cleared the registry settings, and erased all the files, and did a complete reinstall of Illustrator CS6 only, and I still get the same error. No plug-ins running or anything... Help...
Running Windows 7 64-bit Ultimate, AMD Athlon FX 8 Core, 3.96ghz. 16GB DDR3 1600 ram, 6 1TB drives, 3 virtual drive ( each drive is mirrored). Everything else runs rock solid without any issues at all. Just Illustrator acts oddly on shutdown.

This worked for me!

Illustrator CS6 has corrupted CS3, freehand files cannot be opened.

Have a computer with CS3 on it, which is used to open FH10 files.
However last week I installed CS6 on it and now I am unable to open FH10 files in CS3.
Uninstalled CS6, didnt work. Reinstalled CS3, didnt work.
So CS6 has aperently corrupted CS3. Does anyone have a solution?
Im thinking I might try a registry transplant from a computer with a fresh install of CS3.

In your Illustrator CS3 application folder, go to Plug-ins>Illustrator Format, do you still have the Reader for FreeHand.smrd plugin installed or did CS6 remove that?

Illustrator CS6 : CADtools 8 bug avec la mise à l'échelle

Bonjour à tous,
Voilà, j'ai illustrator CS6 et CADtools8. Quand je créé une forme, je rajoute les dimensions souhaitées avec CADtools, jusque là rien d'extraordinaire.
Cependant quand je dois faire un rapport avec cette forme, je la mets à l'échelle, pour que ça rentre dans ma feuille. Seulement, CADtools 8 recalcule les dimensions que j'ai mis. Autrement dit, il est trop intelligent et recalcule toutes les dimensions alors qu'elles doivent rester les mêmes.
Auriez vous une solution ? Ai-je louper quelque chose ?
Merci d'avance!

Adobe Illustrator CS6 Splash Screen Bug

Hello, everyone!
Sorry to bother with such a seemingly insignificant issue, but I have been Googling this for literally over a year, and it's finally come to a head, and I just need to know what the trouble is. I've never been able to find someone else who has had this issue, and it's making me feel like I'm crazy. Here's what has happened. When I was using CS5.5, I never had any issues as far as functionality, but I always l dealt with this simple, nagging bug.
For some reason, the Illustrator [ONLY ILLUSTRATOR] splash screen always displayed the loading commands with this glitched-out looking white blocky outline. I endured it for a whole generation, and just longed for the day I could upgrade and be free from this random, inexplicable aberration. Well, as luck would have it, I finally was able to upgrade this year, and I even upgraded the OS to Windows 8, but lo and behold, the white corruption is still with me.
Sigh. Has anyone else ever seen or heard of this? I've reinstalled the entire package five times or more. I've used the Adobe Cleaner Tool, I've done everything I can imagine. On the Mac side of my PC, I have no issues. Any help or insight you could offer would be much appreciated.

Has no one else encountered this issue? It may just as I'd feared! Haha. Like I said, all of the other Adobe products have normal splash screens, so I don't think a driver issue really makes sense. Why would it only be affecting Illustrator and not Photoshop, Dreamweaver, etc? I really hope I don't have to just chuck my computer off a bridge. Any other feedback would be much appreciated!

Illustrator CS6 width tool bug - Adobe do you even listen????

Hi,
I've asked about this couple months ago and infact others have mentioned it nearly 2 yrs ago and Adobe has done nothing about it to address the issue. The very basic functionality of adobe to even draw a stroke with a width profile assigned to it results in straight lines or profile points magically appearing on the stroke when in theory it should just be a smooth curve. is there ever going to be a fix for this? There aren't even plugins addressing this issue, yes I looked in the hope maybe there is one. If you're going to tellme the solution is to use roughen thats a load of crap because that doesn't do it either. If you're asking me to simplify every ******* stroke with a default width profile applied to it, you're out of your mind. I've got something close to 200 of these strokes that have to be done one by one and if your stroke width profile didn't have a bug, things would've taken less than 30 mins.2 yrs and no fix for something so basic.

Has no one else encountered this issue? It may just as I'd feared! Haha. Like I said, all of the other Adobe products have normal splash screens, so I don't think a driver issue really makes sense. Why would it only be affecting Illustrator and not Photoshop, Dreamweaver, etc? I really hope I don't have to just chuck my computer off a bridge. Any other feedback would be much appreciated!

My bands page has some bugs....please help!

hey guys. first time poster but i have been in love with iweb for a while. if someoen could help me i would appreciate it.
please look at my website:
www.fakinggenius.com
for some reason, all my link's font at toward of the page changes from the handwritting font i used to some generic font. at first i thought it had something to do with a "contact" link but it did that the the link for my "secret video vault" (Home>Pictures>scroll down to bottom of the page)
so to sum up how do i keep the same font for "contact" link, the actual email address, and "secret video" vault and why does it change!?
joe!

You've used a font, the handwriting font that is not on all computers. For your navbar links you made them images so they would look the same on all computers. However the contact link is normal text and if you used the handwriting font for it it will default to Arial on computers without that font. If you want that to be the same make that Contact text an image and link the image file to your contact page.
Unless the font is a Web Safe Font the text will look strange on computers without it.
