Issues with Illustrator CS6 and Intuos5

Hello,
I'm fairly new to Adobe CS and I've been running into a few issues. I've used it fairly consistently at work, but I want to branch out and do some graphic design on my own, so I bought a student license and set about teaching myself! Anyway, I got a Wacom Intuos5 medium tablet to go with this and I think it's causing a few issues. First, it seems like it's causing Illustrator CS6 to crash on launch. If I open an Illustrator document (I'm running Win7 64bit with 16gb of RAM), I get a message that Illustrator CS6 has stopped working. I close that pop-up and try to open the same document again and it opens just fine. I read in a release note that this is due to a plugin associated with Inkling, but I don't have that installed, so I'm not sure that this is what I'm experiencing. I've uninstalled the tablet and went about launching Illustrator again and it seems to working just fine. Is there a fix for this?
Second, I was just getting familiar with the brush tool the other day and noticed that when I used the tablet, the brush tool just quits drawing after about 7 seconds. So I made the same scribbles (just making figure eights over and over again) with my mouse and it seems to cut out after about 15 seconds this time. Is there something I might be doing wrong or this normal? Has anyone else experienced this?
Also, I'm running two SSDs and a 1TB HDD. I have WIN7 and other small things on one SSD and CS6 currently installed on the other SSD. Could this be an issue? I'm at work right now, but I plan on uninstalling both the table and CS6 and only installing CS6 onto my WIN7 SSD to see if this clears anything up.
Thanks for any suggestions ahead of time!
Tom

Hi Larry,
I reinstalled CS6 onto my main drive and I still got the crashing on launch. It's clearly the tablet that's creating the issue. Is there anything else you suggest?
Thanks!

  • Issue with Illustrator CS6 - can't get it to run

    Since a couple of weeks ago, I have an issue with Illustrator CS6 - can't get it to run When starting the application I get the following error:
    "The procedure entry point ?AcquireVarient@ImageInterface@drawbot@dvaui@@QBE?BV?$intrusive_ptr@UImageInterface@drawb ot@dvaui@@@boost@@V?$rational@J@5@@Z could not be located in the dynamic link library D:\Program Files\Contents\Windows\Illustrator.exe."
    I'm running it on Windows 8 (x64). I have multiple other Adobe applications installed, which are running fine. I've tried solving the issue with reinstalling Illustrator - multiple times. My GPU driver is updated to the latest version.

    I have this issue as well on my Mac and called tech support 4 times and they can't fix it. Adobe has really gone down hill in a short amount of time!!
    Only thing that worked (as a temporary fix) is to create a new user and toggle back and forth between two users which is very annoying. Adobe has tried uninstalling, reinstalling, taking over my computer remotely, trashing plugins, verifying permissions but the fact remains that we bought CS6 four weeks ago and Illustrator doesn't work.
    I'm going on Facebook to let others know.....don't buy Adobe, it doesn't work and they don't know how to fix.

  • Issues with illustrator 10 and windows 8

    any known issues with illustrator 10 and windows 8...version worked fine on windows xp....new computer with windows 8....now cannot seem to operate. Loads, and shows access but will NOT start up. help ! thanx ttp74

    AI 10 is now 10 years or so old and was never tested on nor designed for Win 7 or Win 8. You should simply assume it's not compatible and will never run properly. feel free to spend your time with the compatibility modes and al lsorts of hacking with the security stuff and otehr settings, but to be honest, it will probably be a waste of time.

  • Help with Illustrator CS6 and Flash CS4

    Hello I use Illustrator CS6 and Flash CS4. When I export a drawing realized in Illustrator in the size(format) .sof Flash, this one is imported in the library(bookcase) of Flash CS4 but he(it) is created with a multitude of graphic symbols and symbols Bipmap. In the scene(stage) of Flash, the image is illegible it is floutée, apparently it is not a vectorial image. Thank you for your answer. Very cordially.
    Thank You !!!

    Sometimes a picture is better than a description. I had to use a translator to find out that floutee means blurred.
    Generally bitmaps (raster images) are not a strong suite for illustrator. It can do some things with them, just not as much as photoshop. Maybe if you could explain what you want to do with the symbol, then maybe we can give some ideas. Also by posting a screen shot, we might know of where there is a vector alternative.

  • Updating to Mavericks issues with Illustrator, Photoshop and Dreamweaver

    Since updating to Mavericks I am having problems with Illustrator, Photoshop and Dreamweaver opening files on Parallels VM and network servers. Will updating Java to 7 help? Everything worked before upgrade. Photoshop say files are empty, in Dreamweaver the document is blank and Illustrator crashes. If I open the files off my local machine everything works fine.

  • Mouse problems with Illustrator CS6 and Mountain Lion

    The mouse in Illustrator selects and deselects as it moves over buttons and cells:
    1. In Graph data the cells the mouse passes over go dark grey if not already selected, then deselect if they are selected. This makes it very difficult to use the data cells.
    2. In Layers window, where I may have 100s of layers, I want to hide one layer or more which are not necessarily adjacent to each other. Illustrator hides all of the layers it passes. It is very difficult to click and unclick the show/hide button (and also the lock button). Ditto with show or unlock toggle layer. I had to start up in Lion in which Illustrator does not have this problem in order to get a job finished in time.
    Seems there needs to be a fix for Illustrator to work properly in Mountain Lion.
    Has anyone found such a fix?

    No I don't have Right-Zoom (don't know what it is), but I have the same problem with Apple's Track Pad, which I don't use much and I only use the inbuilt software.
    I use Kensington Slim Blade and before that LogiTech's marble mouse and both need their software to work properly.
    All of them work fine in Lion and earlier. Could it be that Adobe has overlooked some new aspect that’s in Mountain Lion which, in my case, needs to be fixed for Illustrator?

  • Anyone else having an issue with Illustrator CS6 update failure?

    I have had Creative Cloud since Jan 2013 and my Illustrator CS6 update failed to complete. What do I do to get the update? Support won't help since I have an "older" version.

  • Issues with Illustrator click and drag

    Running Adobe CC
    on new Macbook Pro OSX 10.10.2
    Recently Illustrator has been slow at tracking my mouse and freezes when I click and drag, and eventually makes the program unresponsive. I have restarted the program, checked to make sure I have the most recent updates. I have also tried restarting my computer, and also running Illustrator without any other programs open and it still doesn't seem to fix the problem.
    I am not experiencing any other difficulties in running other programs, including indesign, photoshop, acrobat, chrome, autocad, etc.

    Generally this should work, but of course there may be occasional compatibility issues across the different programs and their different versions.

  • Uninstalling Illustrator CS6 and Prelude CS6 Mac Betas

    I was on beta team of CS6 and before release this past week was experiencing an issue with Adobe Application Manager. A very unhelpful and uninformed Adobe Tech rep demanded that I uninstall all beta apps manually. I knew this was wrong but followed his advice. Now installing from the Creative Cloud and am getting error messages in Illustrator CS6 and Prelude CS6 installations that there are conflicting files. I cannot locate these conflicting files using Spotlight. All other apps installed without a problem. Since I removed all of these beta files, including uninstallers, manually (following the bad advice of about the worst tech rep I have ever experienced), I have no uninstallers to find these files. I recall that after the cs5 beta cycle, there were several clean-up scripts available to remove any residue of beta software. Does such a script exist or is there a different way to find and remove those conflicting files?
    This is the Illustrator error message:

    I apologize for the experience you had with our support representative.  They were partly correct though with asking you to remove the beta version prior to installing the released version but you would have wanted to use the uninstallers.  At the moment I would recommend running the cleaner tool.  You can find more details on this at CS Cleaner Tool for installation problems | CCM, CS6, CS5.5, CS5, CS4, CS3 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html.

  • Find filter problem with Adobe CS6 and Mavericks

    Hi to all!
    I've 2 new MacPro with OSX 10.9 (is no possible to downgrade) with Adobe Illustrator CS6 and all software are full updated at the last version.
    Firs of all I've found a problem after a last firmware update of my 2 MacPro, in samba connection, solved by AFP implement; in detail:
    I've a Qnap storage with samba and afp shares, so when I connect the samba share the search function in finder not find any, but if I connect the same share via AFP protocol, all works good.
    Ok, it's a problem but no so bad for me because I've the possibility to use AFP ;-)
    Ok, now the big problem:
    when I use the CS5 Illustrator and I execute the "insert" command, the search window show blank screen in the search area if I select a qnap sared folder (AFP or SAMBA shared get the same result, 0 element found)
    After many and many tests I've solved with a workaround: I've forced the Finder to index the shared folder (from the command line in the console) and in this case I've no more problem...
    The problem affect only the afp and samba share, with the local folder (volumes) I don't have any problem.
    So, I can't downgrade Maveriks, and I'm sure the problem is not of CS6... then my only solution is to wait a future update of Mavericks?! or anyone can suggest me a solution?
    Thank you for any reply.
    Paolo

    Go here to check out compatibility:
    http://roaringapps.com/apps?index=a
    As for Photoshop CS6 itself, I have no issues running
    it on Mavericks on my 2011 Mini Server.
    Also, before upgrading, make sure any drivers for third
    party hardware are up to date and compatible with Mavericks.

  • Text problems with Illustrator CS6

    Hello. We are having problems with text in Illustrator CS6. 1. When we copy / paste text within illustrator all color information is lost. 2. When we save documents in Illustrator CS6 then re-open text with color attributes changes to different random colors!! For example: If we save an Illustrator document with a paragraph of text that is part red and part black when we re-open the same paragraph might be all gray, or orange or (you pick a color). Can anyone help us here as this is causing no end of grief. Mac OSX 10.8.2

    As promised. This is the response received from iClipboard re the text color problems with Illustrator CS6.
    "Sounds like an Adobe problem especially given their last fix which changed how they worked with the system clipboard. We don't mess with any of the data put on the system clipboard. We simply make an exact copy of it and store it in iClipboard. It's a READ operation, not a WRITE operation so no data on the clipboard is changed. We use standard Apple API's to do all of this (proof is that iClipboard is in the Mac App Store--Apple's review process doesn't allow undocumented API calls)."
    My thanks to the people at iClipboard however the problem still exists. I'll sum up the issue this way. I have created a paragraph of text in Illustrator that combines black text with red text. I copy then paste the text with iClipboard running and the pasted text is all black. I copy then paste the text with iClipboard disabled and the copied text maintains the color information. When I save the Illustrator document with iClipboard running then reopen the black / red text reopens as grey / orange. With iClipboard disabled the reopened document is fine - go figure. The problems only occur with text - images are fine though they were a problem with the first version of Illustrator CS6. Anyone got any suggestions??

  • Any known compatible issues between Illustrator CS6 & Photoshop CS2?

    Any known compatible issues between Illustrator CS6 & Photoshop CS2?? thanks alot.

    What exactly do you want to do with both the apps?
    Since the exchange of files from AI to PS is based on PDF, I wouldn't expect problems. The only question is, if Photoshop CS2 will be able to read PDF 1.5, since that's the format AI CS6 embeds in its files. If it doesn't work, you could still save a PDF from AI and make it any other PDF version.
    Illustrator can read lower version PSD.
    Copy-Paste might be a problem. I can't experiment, since I don't have that PS version any more.

    Having major issues with InDesign CS6. Not only is it crashing, but it is corrupting the existing file.  Then when I relaunch, it is not allowing me to open the file again.
    In another instance, yesterday I opened an file created 3 months ago and it allowed me to make changes, however I could not save them to the existing file, or not even to a new name.

    Yes, I would certainly get the latest update. That we often solve issues like these, for this is not normal. Some further tips would be quite InDesign, then to trash your InDesign preferences and then re-start InDesign (it will rebuild them again). Some further areas to look into would be:
    * Corrupt Font(s) (or corrupt font caches - see below)
    * Corrupt Image(s)
    * Power Failures (power surges)
    * Placing images via drag-and-drop from an Internet page
    * Working on an InDesign file over a network or on a remote server
    If all else fails, we as Markzware (I work for them) also offer a Service to fix corrupt InDesign documents. See:

    Hopefully this helps you.
