Invisible cursor in illustrator 5.5 after OSX Mavericks update

Hi there,
I realised, that after update to OSX Mavericks (10.9) there is almost invisible type cursor (as you hit T and try to edit text) in my Illustrator CS 5.5. Have you experienced this problem too? Well, it is not invisible, but like 10% black on white backgroud. As you can see on attached picture, cursor actually IS there, but from the front, you can't see it... Any opinion or troubleshoot? https://www.dropbox.com/s/rbhf9j52iw8m1y9/cursor.jpg
Thank you very much!
Configuration is: MBA 13" mid-2013 (i7, 8GB RAM, HD 5000, OSX Mavericks), Adobe Creative Suit Standard for Students CS 5.5.

There have been atleast 3 posts in recent days about hard to see cursors, and atleast one of those posts mentioned new iMac. So i think you hti it on the hose that this is related to Mavericks.
You can system preferences >> accesibility >> Display
One tick mark should do it as it gets big really fast.
I hope to see a mac OS update in the near future, or that someone else finds a solution.
How do you like Mavericks otherwse, any good features?

  • Login issues from sleep mode after OSX maverick update

    After upgrading to OSX Maverick on my 13" MacBook Pro, I am having issues with logging in after it being in sleep mode. Everytime I close the screen to go somewhere and open it back up to continue what I was working on I type my password in (I am the only user, no other user accounts) it acts like the password is wrong and the only way to get logged in is to hold the power button down to shut the computer off then power it back up, then I can login.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of certain system caches. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and  Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • After OSX mavericks update my Finder app won't open !!

    So after completng sucessfully the update for OSX mavericks I had an error on the Finder app (-600) wgich is now not allowing me to open the app and also my desktop files have also disappeared rom screen and I can only access these if I open in safe boot. Please hopefully someone can give me a step by step guide to fixing this as i am beginning to pull my hair out and cant get a genius bar appointment either.
    Thanks for taking time to read.

    Not knowing what you have tried, consider these two options:
    One is a reload of Mavericks.
    Two is to revert to your prior OS:

  • Mail, App Store & Terminal won't open after OSX Mavericks Update

    Hey,
    Updated to OSX Mavericks yesterday - today Mail started crashing, found a solution but needed to use Terminal - which won't open. I thought OK, I'll reinstall OSX, but can't open the App Store either...
    Does anyone know a solution to this one, or have a link to a direct (non App Store) download of OSX Mavericks.
    I've tried Safe Boot and didn't help.
    Thanks,
    Eliot

    I went to the Apple Store today and the genius recommended a new install of Mavericks, just do a time machine back up then hold down alt and go to the recovery drive then click reinstall or new install of Mavericks.
    Note: This will take a long time it took 3 hours for my machine. When it prompts you to install the back up from time machine I would recommend unchecking the box that asks if you'd like to install with your settings. I have a hunch that what caused this problem in the first place was a corrupted file in the settings. Hope this helps..

  • Sync problem after OSX Maverick updating

  • After OSX Mavericks update I now can't open the App store

    Upgraded to the new Mavericks OS however when i try to open the App store as well as a few other apps fail to load at all.
    Any advice would be appreciated.
    Thanks
    Tom

    If you haven't solved this yet, try re-installing the OS. If you have solved it, please share how you fixed it.
    Do a backup. Boot to the Recovery Volume (command - R on a restart or hold down the option key during a restart and select Recovery Volume). Run Disk Utility Verify/Repair and Repair Permissions. Then reinstall the OS.

  • My Toshiba external hard drive won't mount after OSX Mavericks update. Please help.

    Two days ago I updated to Mavericks 10.9.3 and prior to this, my Toshiba 1TB external hard drive worked perfectly well. Since the update, my hard drive will no longer mount. It shows up in Disk Utility but will not let me 'mount', 'verify disk' or 'repair disk' through Disk Utility. My sister has an identical Macbook Pro which she has not updated to Mavericks. I have tested my hard drive on her laptop and it works just fine. Can anyone tell me how to fix this? Do I need to reformat my hard drive (and if so, will that clear everything on my hard drive?) or is there a simple fix?
    Thank you for any assistance you can offer!

    Reset the NVRAM/PRAM and Reset the SMC, then try again.

    Is it possible to write in superscript or subscript in mac mail since the OSX Mavericks update? At the moment I have to copy and paste from Pages!

    I tried to figure this out myself and couldn't believe there wasn't a simple menu item to get this done.  Seems there was in pre-Mavericks but not in Mavericks.   Found several answers but they all reply to before Mavercks.
    This is helpful and yet I'm left with "Wow!  Apple really can make simple things difficult.  Who would have guessed."

  • PS CS not opening after OSX Mavericks download

    Just downloaded OSX Mavericks...now can't open Photoshop CS.  Upgraded Java to no avail.  Can anyone help?

    Then unfortunately it is too old to run in Mavericks. PPC program's we're dropped after 10.5. 10.6 had Rosetta which was introduced to give users ample time to update their programs. CS3 and upwards are supported. You can always make another partition and install SL on that and run both OSXs

  • Has any experienced problems with Parallels 9 after OSX maverick 10.9.5?

    After install OSX Maverick 10.9.5, Parallels 9 will not load..... any comments?

    Hey....
    Save yourself a lot of time and trouble..... buy the upgrade to 10....($50). I did this and "problem solved".....  I tried the Parallel's support before and they could not fix the problem on loading the original software... I had to use my own experience to get the product loaded.... I hope this problem does not present itself during other major upgrades....
    Lots of luck...

  • Issues opening both Illustrator and Calendar in OSX Mavericks

    Hello, I'm experiencing issues opening my calendar and illustrator applications since upgrading to mavericks. Both applications run fine on my guest account, so I'm assuming that the problem originating from my main account on the computer. Basically what happens is the application icon will bounce in the dock, the light will go on, but nothing comes up. No windows, etc. The file menu is responsive to clicking but won't actually open any windows. One thing that I keep seeing repeated in messages like this is the use of the Clean My Mac application. I'm unsure, but is it possible that this program deleted some necessary files? If so, how can I get those files back without wiping my computer and re-installing mavericks?

    Also, I discovered that by hitting control+M (Minimize) you can actually see the application in the dock, and upon un-minimilazing it, it dissappears. Very frusterating.
