I can't get my spacebar to function as a spacebar in Adobe Illustrator. I'm using a Mac Studio with OS 14.2.1

It's either Sonoma casuing this. Or you have a third party app interfering. 

 

One of these (but not limited to them)

  • WebRoot
  • Apple Terminal
  • Word, Excel, Powerpoint
  • »Enable Full Keyboard« in Settings > Accessibility > Keyboard on Mac OS
  • Apple Mail, Outlook
  • Spacebar is used as a shortcut by the system
  • Chrome, Internet Explorer, Safari
  • Wacom Desktop Center, Wacom settings
  • Windows Touch Pad problem
  • LastPass, Bitwarden (password managers)
  • The VPN
  • LangSwitcher app (it needs to be closed and disabled)
