I've known for awhile that I would need to switch to something that makes more sense than an "easy monthly payment plan".

I wish Adobe was not abel to kill freehand but they did. Now there are others that would love to have a chunk of Adobe's vector art business. I for one can't wait to give it to them.

I think we can say absolutely that if CS4 needs changing that Adobe will not fix it. Support for new operating systems is one the key reasons that drives upgrades in the software industry, so rather than being unhappy that CS4 or CS5 (or older) doesn't work, they will be delighted. What are all these crazy people doing upgrading without checking? Some of them don't even have backups!!

Illustrator simply crashed. Re-installed it and it's even worse. Simply fed up, don't know what to do! I need to keep photoshop running so that illustrator starts up (at least). This is screwed up. And from all my searches, adobe is absolutely (and conveniently so) quiet about cs4's compatibility with yosemite. Why did I upgrade!?

Will Adobe provide us an update to fix these problems for CS4 or are they letting them be so we have to upgrade to CC and pay a monthly fee?  Seems suspicious to me that with a well-known issue there isn't a resolve by now.

Do Adobe staff or technical support provide answers on these forums?

I'm stuck!! I've upgraded to Yosemite and discovered I can no longer place PSD into Illustrator (CS4 or CS5). Illustrator no longer accepts the PSD format. Is Adobe the location to find a fix, or Apple? I'm in the middle of a project. Formerly place graphics in my Illustrator doc work fine, I just can't place any more. HELP!!!
