Can you please update about the OS version and also have you tried opening AI CC 2014 after deleting the Preferences.
Thanks & Regards,

This bug is unsolved, but you can select the lower rectangle to the right of the rainbow and DoubleClick to apply that to change the top rectangle and the values: the lower colour is the right one.
I am afraid your issue is the one described here (one thread linking on to the other):

It seems that the bug has survived the update to 18.1.

Ok thanks. Strange that I could not find that thread.
Funny I first got the bug now with 18.1.0.

jules.skopp Oct 9, 2014 2:03 PM (in response to Mads MP)Hi there, I 've recently had a similar issue on MacBook and Adobe support representative helped me to fix it.
EDIT: the bug is back. Right after I setup my Workspace, argh. But at least I know what's causing it - when I move Color picker from my main monitor to the secondary one.
Recordit: Record screencasts fast & free! with GIF Support! I have filed a bug report as well.
Here's my screenshot displaying the issue:
This is just a temporary fix, the bug returned after a while.
1. Close all Adobe apps you are running.
2. Open Finder and select from menu Go - Go to folder... and type in ~/library/preferences
3. Navigate to Adobe Illustrator 18 Settings folder
4. Rename the "en_US" folder to "en_US old".
5. Launch Illustrator (you can Sync settings with Cloud if you want to)
