Illustrator CS6 wont start

Illustrator CS6 16.0.4 will not start on mac 10.8.2 (jumps up and down in dock a few times loads extensions then stops), removed all adobe products with adobe creative suite cleaner, removed products from application directory. restarted, reinstalled only Illustrator CS6, then the individual patches that were manually downloaded from
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=27&platform=macintosh
My next step would of been to continue the installs of CS6 Products but Illustrator will still not start.
I understand this is a known issue with the latest update through Adobe Application manager.
Please help, it has been 3 days now we are unable to properly correct the issue after numerous uninstalls and intallations.
Addtional items tried: user is an administrator, created a new user with Admin priv and tried also not working.

Asmerdijan,
You can go ahead and install the JAVA update from the Apple by going to link below:
http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1572
Once that is downloaded please go ahead and put the FXGfileformat.aip  & launch illustrator and it should work for you.
If that doesnt work try to reset the prefrences for Illustrator.
Press and hold Option+Command+Shift (Mac OS) as you start Illustrator. Your current settings are deleted.
Let me know if you need further help on this.

  • Illustrator CS6 wont open, stops at loading fonts - MAC OSX

    I have a MAC OSX 10.8.5. My Illustrator CS6 wont open anymore. It keeps stalling while loading the fonts. I have uninstalled and re-installed the program twice and also tried deleting the font that it stalled at but then it would just stall when trying to load the next font. I did notice that it seemed to be stalling on fonts that AREN'T OTF format.  I also wasn't sure to delete the fonts out of the SYSTEM, LIBRARY, FONTS folder or the other fonts folder location in LIBRARY.  I really need to get this program working, please help!!!!!

    thank you, already did that

  • Illustrator CS6 wont update to the latest CC-version, any ideas?

    AI wont update to the new CC-members only features. I would like to have access to the package feature and I have tried both deleting and uninstall AI, but no luck so far. I had CS Design and WebPremium installed before. Adobe Application Manager tells me theres nothing to upgrade.
    Any ideas on how to get round this issue? How do I know if my apps are the latest CC if the application manager isnt working properly? Isnt this the point with the Creative Cloud, to be able to get the new features? Finally is there a secret place on Adobe.com where i can download the patch?

    If you never got it updated I think the next thing I would try is uninstalling and reinstalling Illustrator.
    You could uninstall it using
    Mac HD > Applications > Utilities > Adobe Installers

  • Unable to start Illustrator CS6 64-bit on Windows 7

    I installed the CS6 Master Upgrade yesterday and almost all of the apps are working correctly. However, when I try to open Illustrator CS6 64-bit it returns this error message: "The application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b). Click OK to close the application." The 32-bit version works correctly. Any suggestions or similar cases? Thanks.

    I feel like I need to chime in here.  I just installed my new Master Collection of CS6 all my x64 applications were working with the exception of Illustrator x64.  I Googled the heck out of this and found so much back and forth between adobe saying it's a microsoft issue (.net framework and redistributables) and microsoft saying it's an Adobe issue.
    My windows installation is fairly fresh, but for the heck of it I tried unexpectedpanda's solution of uninstalling/re-installing the Microsoft Visual C Libraries.  I followed the instructions to the letter, I even went so far as to uninstall/re-install .net itself.  No luck.
    I saw the Lightroom (error unable to start correctly) fix mentioned in a few places, and thought frick I've tried EVERYTHING else.  I did the following to fix this annoying issue:
    1) Download the Lightroom fix (mentioned in the link from crebimacedo)
    2) Extract the .dll files from the .zip.  There are 2 files; msvcr80.dll and msvcr100.dll
    3) Opened folder Adobe Illustrator CS6 (64 Bit)/Support Files/Contents/Windows
    4) The above folder already contains the msvcr80.dll so I did NOT overwrite it.  I simply copied and paste the msvcr100.dll into the above folder.
    5) Tried to launch Illustrator CS6 (x64) and imagine that. WORKING!
    To me this says that this was indeed an Adobe issue and their installer appears to be missing a file.  Especially when a fix file from their website resolves the issue.
    I would also just like to add that I have confirmed that this file already existed in my C:\Windows\System32 and in C:\WindowsSysWOW64 so my OS was NOT missing it as a .dll; again reiterating that it appears to make this an Adobe issue.
    Good luck to the rest.
    This one works for me ...

    Mac. Yosemite- Illustrator CS6 and CC both crash right after starting. Have Suitcase 6 (not 5). current Wacom drivers. Tablet not connected to Mac. Anyone else experiencing this?

    Hi,
    Scott Agnew,
    Please check if there are any updates pending for Suitcase fusion and Illustrator.
    You can also try resetting AI preferences.
    User Library/Preferences/Adobe Illustrator [#] Settings
    Rename Adobe Illustrator [#] Settings to old Adobe Illustrator [#] Settings
    User Library/Preferences/Adobe/Adobe Illustrator/Version[#]
    Rename Version[#] to old Version[#]
    Access user library Access hidden user library files | Mac OS 10.7 and later
    Do you get any crash report. Look if it says anything for Wacom or extensis?
    Thanks,

  • Starting up Illustrator cs6 received a tryout screen?

    I just started up my Illustrator cs6 today, and a screen came up that said Tryout. This the first time its ever happened. After checking out google, I found that similar questions were asked but on torrent sites. I purchased the creative suite fully in September. So, I'm not as to why I would receive this screen.
    Can anyone advise what this is about?

    I figured it out, for some reason I had to put my serial number in again.
    Thank you anyways

  • Every time I start Illustrator CS6 I get an error message: "Error loading plugin AIHostAdapter.aip.

    Every time I start Illustrator CS6 I get an error message:
    "Error loading plugin AIHostAdapter.aip. I have tried reloading the program, updating, everything. I've checked the forums but no one seems to have a solution

    I am not sure. Here is a screenshot.  Many people are having this problem. I am wondering what it is and what it does exactly and can't seem to find an answer to that question.
    I deleted Illustrator CS6  yesterday and reloaded the program. I am on a Mac, Maverick 10.9. The strange thing is the dates. All plugins [in the file] correspond with the Illy CS6 reload except that particular Plugin?
    Can I delete the file or is it a necessary plugin?

    Sorry, aber das klingt unglaubhaft. Ein anderer Rechner hat genau dasselbe Problem?
    Da es vorher ging, muß es mit einer Systemveränderung zu tun haben. Ich tippe mal auf Windows Updates. Das hieße dann auch, der andere Rechner hat denselben Stand, auch unglaublich bzw. unerhört, wie ich finde. Da steht Windows Update wohl "Auto" und zieht sich alles rein, was es finden kann. Kein Wunder, daß solche Probleme entstehen. Mehr als die Hälfte aller Windows Updates braucht man gar nicht, weil die Funktionen betreffen, die die meisten gar nicht nutzen.
    Da hilft nur Systemwiederherstellung auf ein Datum vor dem Tag, an dem der Ärger anfing, oder die Windows Updates seit dem Tag X sukzessive zu deinstallieren, um den Schurken zu identifzieren.

    You have Distiller (used by the PDF Printer) or the Acrobat Quick Launcher running in the background. Shut down the processes or terminate them in task manager.
