Install Adobe illustrator cc 2014 and I have no desktop icons when I save my work to my desktop

I have installed Adobe illustrator cc 2014 and I have no desktop icons when I save my work to my desk top.  I have a white square and the file name and thats it.  What is wrong?  I have no other illustrator programs on my computer.

    There is a conflict with third party software or your system keyboard shortcuts. Lately, there have been many postings about conflicts with Chrome extensions so check there first.
    It's not a new problem. I wrote about it on InDesignSecrets.com in 2006:

  • Problem with another application after install Adobe Illustrator CC 2014

    Hello, I write you because we don't know how to fix this problem.
    We've encountered a problem after install that software in our corporative computers, for some reason the default font of Lotus Notes changes after install Adobe Illustrator.
    It changes Calibri font by The Times New Roman font. Those problems have been detected in the 100% percent of tests made. (Uninstalling Adobe and/or Lotus, installing the software in many PCs and suffer the same issue).
    There is a compatibility problem between those programs ?
    Thank you in advance for your help.

    d,
    I am afraid Illy is reluctant to recognize Calibri as a (proper high quality) font and therefore replaces it whenever she comes across it.
    Have you had the same issue with the original CC or even earlier?

  • Adobe Illustrator CC 2014 and Indesign CC 2014 Crashing

    I have had some significant issues with Adobe Illustrator and Indesign CC over the past week.  Previous to this I had no issues.  Now, each time I run the programs and place an image, they will crash the moment I try to move the placed image.  I am running a macbook retina with plenty of processing power.  I have tried reinstalls, restarts etc to absolutely no avail.  This is very frustrating.
    If it's useful I can include my most recent crash report.  Any help anyone can provide would be very much appreciated.

    Hi Cklapwyk
    Are you using the Creative Cloud 2013 or 2014 applications? Are you receiving any errors? Are you using any font management software like Extensis suitcase?
    See this link if you are & update the plugin. http://blog.extensis.com/adobe/extensis-compatiblity-adobe-cc-2014.php
    Have you tried resetting the application preferences to see if that helps?
    See: Illustrator Help | Setting preferences
    InDesign Help | Setting preferences
    Can you create new files and place images from the desktop with out crashing? Does this happen when working with simple objects?
    You might try creating a new administrator user account to see if the apps will launch under the new user account.
    Thanks

    I have MAC OSX 10.5.8 and need to install adobe illustrator. I checked the compatibility and found that CS5 will work.Can any one help where i can find it. The trail version is fine with me as i just have to use it for couple of days till i get my mac book back from service. Can any one help me on this.

    You are welcome, ameronweb.
    To elaborate a bit, you may come across offers of a new/unopened/unregistered version, which is the simplest case (you would need a guarantee). Other cases require much detailed information (and a guarantee).
    If upgrading to 10.6.8 or higher is an option, you could use CS6.

    charmi,
    The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (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.
    1) Close down Illy and open again;
    2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 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);
    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, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

    Why won't Illustrator install? I'm in a digital media class that uses this program regularly, so I'd like to have access to it without having to make my way back to the computer labs on campus.

  • Smart guides and snap to point not working in Adobe Illustrator CC 2014

    Hello,
    I am having a lot of issues with Illustrator CC 2014 and the Smart Guides. Every time I try and snap one object to another or snap an object to a guide, the object snaps either above or below the guide/object but never snaps correctly. This also happens when I am zoomed in all the way!
    I do not have align to pixel grid or snap to grid turned on.

    Okay so I'm trying to download Adobe Flash Pro. I've gone to creative cloud and downloaded "Flash Professional CC and Mobile Device Packaging (2014)" and I have no idea what to do afterwards... There's no way to open or run the file. And to be honest, I'm not even sure if it's the right download... Help!

    I'm using PC with Windows 8.1. I got onto the Creative Cloud and downloaded "Flash Professional CC and Mobile Device Packaging (2014)". <--- That would be the file. I can't open or run it from CC and I couldn't find a file in my computer either.
    I've also found direct downloads for the trial version and hit the set-up button, it loads up, and then nothing happens.

  • 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.

  • I have spent hours trying to install Adobe Flash on Firefox and it won't work.

    I have spent hours trying to install Adobe Flash on Firefox and it won't work.

    Seems a common problem.
    What OS are you using, Windows 8 64 bit or something? Win 8 has an embedded Flash Player on it, and I have been told here that if this is the case, installing a new version of Flash Player is not necessary, but Fire Fox needs the plug in. They came out with a Flash Player plug in for use with Fire Fox that includes a debugger, but I have not tried it yet. (see below).
    I have tried installing Flash Player 11.8.800.994  and 11.7.70.224...... and all crash. I think maybe some anti virus software needs to be disabled to allow installation, or the anti virus thinks its malware. I am also not sure if I need to also install Shockwave Flash for the whole thing to work?
    Not sure the following will help and I am about to try it because I am going round in circles, too.
    If 11.7 extended support release works for you, would you please update your success by adding a reply at the bottom of your original post, and let us know what you did that worked?
    Good luck!
    Announcement: Attention: Please read for important changes to Flash Player 10.3
    Hide Details
    Beginning July 9th, 2013 we will be updating the version of our "extended support release" from Flash Player 10.3 to Flash Player 11.7 for Mac and Windows.  To continue to stay current with all available security updates you will need to install the 11.7 extended support release or update to the most recent available release (11.8, etc.)  For full details, please see this blog post:

    Hello, I have a Mac and want to install Adobe Encore CS6, my Mac must have Adobe Premier for its operation?

    You install PPro to then install the bundled Encore, but you do not need PPro to run Encore (but be VERY careful if you try to uninstall Premiere Pro, that you do not also uninstall Encore)
