I didn't notice that error; I simply saw that the update failed repeatedly.

Although certain situations may cause the update to fail, most of the time my internet connection is incredibly smooth and I'm not doing anything else, so using the retry button should work.

This has happened so often lately that when I tried to auto-update PS last month, my m2 max MBP with Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop software kept telling me that the update failed hundreds of times! I was able to upgrade successfully by restarting my computer. Recently, I believe it was this week, illustrator requested an update; the same issue happened again!! It will not update till I restart my computer! This is quite frustrating!

Thank you, I actually have already reset my mac (including format my hard drive) and do the exact same thing as you do. Still happened same things. So I want to show you my hardware information, see if that can help MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2017, Two Thunderbolt 3 ports) 2.3 GHz Intel Core i5 16 GB 2133 MHz LPDDR3 Intel Iris Plus Graphics 640 1536 MB

Hello, thank you for this wonderful software. I encountered a problem today, I can not use After Effects 3D camera Tracker, after pressing analytics, it will always wait and later shows "time out obtaining dynamic link server connection" Mine is MBP 2017 16gb Mojave 13 inches Here is what I have tried: reboot use different wifi, check firewall (My firewall is always turned off) reinstall AE and reboot reinstall AE, Media Encoder, Premiere, and All media player in my computer, with quick time left only, and reboot reinstall all program in different languages, and reboot using command line sudo open '/Applications/Adobe After Effects CC 2019/Adobe After Effects CC 2019.app/Contents/MacOS/After Effects' after all above, I use different footage format (ProRes 4444, mov, mp4) reinstall entire creative cloud (including Ai, Ps, Acrobat, Dimension, XD, Prelude, AE, Pr, Bridge, Audition, Media Encoder) and use CC cleaner tool to clean all (latest version), and reboot! No luck, the problem remains same, I've tried official twitter asking question, no answers, I've tried local forums (Taiwan), no answers. I have one last step I haven't tried, that's reinstalling my entire MacBook Pro, but I don't want to do that. I've noticed that AE comes with Mocha, but I don't know if Mocha have 3D camera tracker, from my research, Mocha has 3D camera resolver, I don't know if they are the same thing, if they are the same thing, I can continue with my broken AE, because I really need that virtual 3D camera position & rotation, I really need that virtual 3D space to add my 3D objects, I need to extract those numbers to my other projects. Thank you for listening to my question.

First of all, thanks for the scripting feature. It's wonderful to have custom ability using javascript to script feature what I want. I've noticed that the scripting guide is protected. I can not select any text, this is harmful to just searching documents. I would be wonderful to have web version or something we can use.

Hey, other forum forward me this babel plugin GitHub - OpenGG/babel-plugin-transform-ternary-to-if-else: Transform ternary operators (conditional expressions) into if… This is exactly what I'm looking for.

!Consider following code var a = 123; var b = a === 123 ? 345 === 566 ? 123 : 444 : 567 === 567 ? 678 : 789; alert(b) This code excutes in chorme works. However, it break in illustrator script ! The reason why I use such complex "if else", is because I use webpack UglifyJSPlugin to minify my script. UglifyJSPlugin compiles my code to such complex "if else". Is there any way to fix this ? Is there any plugin I can use to transpile this code to normal if else ? Thank you very much !

Hello, I want to batch rename everything. What I want to do is similar to this script: GitHub - shspage/illustrator-scripts: JavaScript scripts for Adobe Illustrator CSx. This script collects every textframe to a pop-up window and let you modify the text and replace it. What I want to do is you run a script in a document, open a pop-up window, and it contains the document's tree. Something like this: Layer 1 Layer 2 PathItem 1 PathItem 2 GroupItem 1 PathItem 3 PathItem 4 PathItem 5 Layer 3 And you can modify them like this: layer 1 mainLayer --rect --circle --mainGroup ----icon 1 ----icon 2 --stuff lastLayer Here is some code I go so far: (function() { var allLayersName = ""; //store document's tree var level = 0; //store item's order for (var i = 0; i < app.activeDocument.layers.length; i++) { //loop throught all top layers loopThroughAllItems(app.activeDocument.layers, level); //go into layers, this is a recursive function } alert(allLayersName); //display document's tree function loopThroughAllItems(elem, level) { if(elem.typename == "GroupItem" || elem.typename == "Layer") { allLayersName += Array(level).join("--") + elem.name + "\n"; //Array(level).join("--") means repeat "--" string level times, level = 2 you get "----" level++; for (var i = 0; i < elem.length; i++) { //this line is where I stuck because illustrator doesn't have this kind of api return loopThroughAllItems(elem.index(i), level); //I think this line is also not gonna work XDD } } else { if(elem.parent.index(elem.pareent.length-1) == elem) { //detect if it is last element inside a group or layer allLayersName += "--".repeat(level) + elem.name + "\n"; level--; //decrease level so you get proper order } else { allLayersName += "--".repeat(level) + elem.name + "\n"; //there is still some items inside the group or layer } } }})(); I stuck at line 12, 13 because illustrator doesn't have that api. I don't know how to get a groupItem or layer's child in proper order. Please Help~

Dear programmers, I want to manipulate illustrator pathitem by controlling external midi controller like knob, midi keyboard etc.... I use web midi api but it doesn't work. I thought everything you can done in chrome can be also done in CEP 7 Panel. Any ideas? I use 2015.3 illustrator version.

Hi, thanks for reply. Yes, I'm on Windows with CC2015.3. I think it's a rare bug, maybe run 20, 30 times to find the error, or even you never find the error. Or specific Ai file, too many factors. XDDD

So this happen, I cycle through my artwork, compare their typename ono by one, and my script keep crushing. Turns out there is often one or two pathItem's object tree property completely lose their mind. No property, but error msg like this image, and this happens so often.
