P: Photoshop 23.2.2 Can't open/update vector smart object in Illustrator

Just today, I updated to macOS Monterey and now I am having problems opening vector smart objects in Photoshop files. If Illustrator is closed, when I double click the smart object (or choose edit contents) Illustrator will launch but the file will not open.

If Illustrator is open and I try to open the smart object, I get a Mac error window that says "The application "Adobe Illustrator 2022" can't be opened" with a -1703 error code.

I'm using Photoshop 23.2.1 and Illustrator 26.0.3, which I went back to after seeing the problem first occur in 26.1.

The computer is iMac Retina 5K, 27-inch 2019 | 3.6 GHz 8-Core Intel Core i9 | macOS Monterey 12.3

Thanks in advance

Did you look in Apple menu > System Prefs > Software Update?

Thanks Jeffrey, this has been driving me crazy. I didn't realize how much I relied on smart object until they would not open. this is an issue from photoshop and dimensios for me.

Has anyone seen this update in the wild yet?

Thank you for reporting the fix from Apple, Jeffrey. Seventeen days for them to fix this is impressive!

Même problème, exactement. J'ai résolu provisoirement en cochant "ajouter à ma biliothèque actuelle" lors de la conversion en objet dynamique. Entre ça et la disparution des icones des fichiers eps… Apple commence vraiment à nous gonfler sévère !
