Will Illustrator CC for Mac run on a Windows 7 PC?

I am a graphic designer working at a printing company. We are purchasing a new large-format printer that needs a PC to run it's RIP Software. It has a special contour cutting capability that runs through a plug-in in Illustrator. I have a subscription for Creative Cloud on my Mac, so I'm wondering if I can run Illustrator on the PC for this printer. Is it compatible on both platforms? Or do I need to buy another license that is PC only? I only need Illustrator on the PC.
Thanks for any help anyone can give!

Yes, but you need to download the software for each OS separately and install in both machines.
The CC license allows for both.

    Microsoft Office 2004 will not work on any Mac running Lion or Mountain Lion. You will need to upgrade to Office 2011, buy the less expensive iWork apps from the App Store or use a free office clone like OpenOffice or NeoOffice.

  • Cut/Paste from Word to Illustrator CS3 for Mac suddenly not working

    This issue regards Illustrator CS3 for Mac on a Mac Pro with 6 GB.
    Exactly one week ago I created a number of Illustrator files by cutting charts from a Word 2008 document and pasting them into an Illustrator document.
    In the past I have dragged the images (or clip art) or simply used Control-C or even Control-X, but by whatever method I opted for, getting the image from Word to Illustrator CS3 has not been a problem.
    Yesterday I got a new chart and a request to replace an old image - one that I had created last week on Tuesday by the Drag/Drop or Cut/Paste method.   For reasons I can't begin to imagine the process simply won't work now.
    I also find that if I simply select text in a Word Document, hit Ctrl-C and then try a Ctrl-V in Illustrator I don't get to see my text pasted in - ONLY if I already have a text block open and the cursor in place will I get to see the text copied over into Illustrator.  This is very strange and not at all how things have worked in the past - typically I would see the new Text Object just appear, and then I could move it to wherever I wanted. 
    I have opened up a number of old files that I know were created with copied text and also opened the associated Word files (earlier versions of Word) and again find that I can't copy text over, or even move images over - even though I clearly could do this before.  I have also tried entirely new files - also with no success.
    I was at an Apple one-to-one session this morning and they were more than mystified by this.  I can Cut and Paste into Adobe Photoshop Elements, but I can't even cut and paste from Adobe Photoshop Elements into Illustrator CS3.   I can drag the Photoshop file (from the Finder window) into the Illustrator document and poof - get my image that way, but it's as an image only.  If the base image in question is a vector image or something else having a plurality of elements, I can't then select the elements in Illustrator to change their color, delete them, or otherwise play with them.
    I have brought up a word document on another Mac system that also has Illustrator CS3 and find that it too can't drag/drop cut/paste between the two applications.   At Apple, we did confirm that such ability is operational in the new Illustrator CS4, but none of their store systems still have CS3 to provide yet a third system to test.
    I have deleted my Illustrator CS3 preferences, tried flushing the p-ram, and of course run fix and repair permissions - no dice.
    My Mac systems update daily and there is nothing in the main update log that shows anything for Adobe or Office (nor do I think there should be).  Adobe Update reports that everything is up to date, and I don't see a history file to know what might have changed in the last week.   Office also reports fully up to date and happy.
    As I can cut and paste the images into an email for Mail and into Photoshop, I am fairly certain that it is NOT a Microsoft Office 2008 issue.  The fact that another Mac with Illustrator CS3 also can't cut and paste suggests that is is really not something personal to my main system.
    It is almost as if this is some clandestine "update" intended to encourage me to buy Illustrator CS4.  Given that I bought Illustrator CS3 less than a year ago, I really am not eager to buy the new version.   The greeting on the Adobe Support page that CS3 is no longer the current version and therefore supported was most annoying.
    I am really hoping that someone out there has an idea of what to try changing, removing and/or adjusting with respect to Adobe Illustrator CS3.

    I tried the Select by Path option - can't believe I missed it - and found it made no difference.
    I actually uninstalled and reinstalled the whole app.  When I tried to simply re-install (can't remember it's exact phrase) it got part way through and then demanded another disk - but I only have one DVD with the application - the extra DVD is for tutorials and it didn't accept that one either.  So I restarted that process and chose to completely uninstall.  Then reinstalled - hey with only my one disk - gee, just like the first time.   And then it seemed to work.
    I was not aware of the save as PDF option - but yes I have Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 for Mac so that option is there - and it seems to work too.  
    There were of course a slue of updates, and I let them all proceed - but even with them all in place the system is fine and I can once again drag and drop / cut and paste things back and forth.   I just tried a text block and "The Quick Brown Fox" pasted in with a clipping mask about 10 times the size of the document, but other than that it was ok.  
    So I have things working again on my primary system.   Will try and figure out what's wrong with the other one - but a reinstall might be the easiest game there too.

  • Keyboard shortcuts not working in Illustrator CC for Mac

    I'm having a lot of problems using keyboard shortcuts in Illustrator CC for Mac. They'll will work intermittently. No keyboard issues anywhere else. Is this a bug, or something I can remedy on my end?

    I am having the exact same problem and it is really infuriating at times... I just switched from CS6 where I encountered no such problems.
    It seems that it usually happens when I switch to Finder or another application and back (altough it may only be Finder). The Illustrator window is still active because I can see Illustrator reacting when I press only CMD or ALT. However all keyboard shortcuts just stop working, for instance CMD+S, or V or any other toolbar shortcuts. To fix it I have to do a mouse click on a tool or menu command or something, and the shortcuts are back for a while...
    I am also running Illustrator v.17.0.0 and OS X 10.8.4 on a macbook Pro connected to a Thunderbolt Display and bluetooth mouse/keyboard.
    I sure hope this is picked up by Adobe soon, it is really messing with my workflow!

    Best,

    you cannot use your pc license to install on a mac.  you would need a separate license (and serial number) for that.
    adobe allows platform swaps, but only with the latest (xi) version, Order product | Platform, language swap
    your option to use acrobat on a mac are to upgrade to acrobat pro xi and change platforms, use a windows emulator (parallels/boot camp etc) on your mac or swap with a third party.

  • Alternative to Adobe Flash Player for Macs running Yosemite

    Is there a reliable and secure alternative to Adobe Flash Player for Macs running Yosemite?  I keep getting websites telling me that I can see a video because my Flash Player needs to be updated.  But I haven't wanted to install it as I've heard negative things about it and Macs.  Is there an alternative to Flash Player?  And if so, what is it and where do I find it?

    Being that Flash is very insecure, I've completely removed it from my MacBook Pro. The best alternative is to uninstall Flash from your system and download Google Chrome as it has Flash build into it and you're not vulnerable unless you're browsing in Chrome. If Safari is your main browser, as mine is, then you need to open Safari Preferences, go to Advanced and click the checkbox for 'Show Develop menu in menu bar'. Once you've done this, the Develop menu bar menu shows up and you can click it and choose 'Open Page With' and choose Chrome. It is a bit cumbersome, but it removes the vulnerability when browsing in Safari as many sites are now using HTML5. Hope this help.

  • Can't get Illustrator CS2 for Mac to start up/open

    Hello Everyone,
    My Illustrator Cs2 for Mac was working great, but now it won't open start-up.
    It begins to open when the window for the software startup opens, it begins to initialize, it begins to load fonts, but then it gets 'hung up' when it says "12.0.1 Initializing...Created by the Adobe Illustrator Team". In my dock it says that the "application is not responding" and it never resolves to completely load the software.
    I enclose a screenshot to show you what I'm on about.
    I have Mac OS X.4.11, a 2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, IGB of memory and 15 GB of hard disk space. Every other software on the laptop works well and I have no other problems.
    Is anyone familiar with this or does anyone know what I should do?
    Thanks
    martin

  • Will Elements 12 for Mac update my Elements 8 for PC?

    Will Elements 12 for Mac update my Elements 8 for PC which I had transferred to my new Mac Book?

    Will Elements 12 for Mac update my Elements 8 for PC which I had transferred to my new Mac Book?
    What 99jon said, is true. However, you can't open a PSE 8/windows catalog with PSE 12/mac. You would need to update the windows machine to at least PSE 9 (In your case, of course PSE 12 would be the logical version), then do a full organizer backup to a  removable drive using the organizer command, and then restore that to the mac. What you've done won't work, not if you want to keep your tags and categories.
    Also, if you're asking about buying an upgrade version, 9 times out of 10 you can find the full version of PSE for less than adobe's upgrade price if you shop around.

    It's a 3rd party app.  You really should contact Adobe Support and/or post in the Adobe Forums

  • Will Microsoft Office For Mac V.X run on Lion?

    Need to determine if I have to buy the latest version of Microsoft Office For Mac.  Would prefer to use my V.X.  I am upgrading to Lion for iCloud.

    However, Office 2008, which does run in Lion, MUST BE INSTALLED BEFORE you upgrade to Lion, because its installation program has Rosetta-required PPC code.
    Another issue is that many people with legacy MS Office data files are experiencing severe problems with translation of the legacy files by MS Office 2008 or 2011. 
    For example, I must access a file once a week that I created in MS Excel 2004 and its graphs are scrambled by Excel 2011.  I continue to access it with Excel 2004 in Snow Leopards installed in Parallels 7 in Lion:
    If you decide to continue to use your Office v.X, full installation instructions for Snow Leopard (and Rosetta) in Parallels 7 in Lion are here:
