Can't move objects any more using arrow keys in Illustrator

I just updated Illustrator CC (April 2017 / 2017.1.0 Release / 21.1.0) and now I can't move objects, text, etc. using the arrow keys. There is no issue with my keyboard in other applications, and I don't see anything in my Illustrator preferences or any other settings which would impact this. I do not understand - am I missing something? Please tell me this is not on the 'other enhancements' for the program!

    I had this problem too just after I updated Illustrator (2017.1.0 Release / 21.1.0), everything on the keyboard worked except the arrow keys. I closed and re-opened Illustrator and that seemed to fix the problem - I guess I'll have to wait and see if it's permanent or not

      Thanks! Restarting the program did seem to fix it.
