Same here! And Illustrator CS6 won't launch anymore!

"Adobe Illustrator cannot be opened because of a problem."

It was properly installed and never changed since..

When will Adobe ever fix their annoying updaters?!

Just reinstalling doesn't work. The app itself doesn't seem to be modified at all, so the updater screwed some files in the System folder I guess.. but which ones..?

Exact same problem. Hopefully they will take this one on soon since they just had the "Adobe Create Now Live" event and were pushing people to update the photoshop and illustrator apps!

And Illustrator is dead. Crashes on opening. OUCH!

Yes AI was dead here too. But TimeMachine was my friend!

I restored /ApplicationSupport/Adobe and /Applications/Adobe Illustrator CS6 from Time Machine, and now it works again. I'll not be running the update however, since it is obviously *brittle*.

Having the same problem on my Mac Pro running 10.8.2!!!!! Whats going on Adobe???!!!

Same issue here - I used Time Machine to get the old Version of Illustrator and it works now.

Update: it only appears to make actions play twice if they're invoked from an F-key.

This is completely unacceptable. Will Adobe compensate me for the inefficiency this creates in my workflow? My billable time is based on being able to complete jobs in carefully calculated timescales and this REALLY messes with that.

I only installed this update in hope it would fix the broken window behaviour under Mountain Lion, which I reported with the initial release and which remains unaddressed.

Sorry for tagging this onto an existing thread, BTW, but I'm struggling to make sense of this forum's posting options…

Heh. I'm still trying to work out how the 16.0.3 update can be issued under "bug fixes" when it's fixed no visible bugs for me, but introduced two new ones that are catastrophically disruptive to my workflow (actions rendered unuseable from Fkeys, no color profiles embedded in exported TIFFs)…

Same problem! Photoshop and Dreamweaver were updated correctly but Illustrator, now i can´t even open it! I need to work!

Step1

Step 2

Step 3

Step 4

Nothing is working except InDesign.

This is what I see:

Adobe Illustrator [2452]

Parent Process:  launchd [199]

OS Version:      Mac OS X 10.8.2 (12C60)

Report Version:  10

I open to all suggestions

I too had the exact same problem, all the solutions above are simply time wasters. (i.e. read error logs and installing Adobe Support Advisor, really? I have to do all that because of a simple upgrade?)  Hopefully Adobe will remedy this problem very soon.

Yes, reinstalling via Time Machine worked for me too. It has the be the installer hosing up the app.

Same problem. Updater came up today, so I tried again same result:

Adobe Illustrator CS6 Update (version 16.0.3)

Installation failed. Error Code: U44M1P7

PLEASE adobe get this fixed!

Same problem here - is anybody else using MacKeeper? I've heard that it is the culprit - deletes a .plist file that is required to update Illustrator. Have no idea which one, or why, or how to fix it. I hope Adobe weighs in here...if this is the case and they are aware of it, could they perhaps post a link with instructions on replacing it?

I have MacKeeper on my iMac and MBP. Sounds like an idea to uninstall version 2.3.1 of MacKeeper and try the download again - Thanks

Same problem, MacKeeper!

I have the same problem. Dreamweaver's update installed fine though. I don't even know what MacKeeper is.

I don't use it very often, every few months maybe. I've been able to install updates before, so I'm not sure what it could be. I'd like to avoid uninstall/reinstall, and I don't think that's going to help since the update hasn't been applied yet. Any other ideas?
