    There were several similar reports recently. Some of them probably cannot be found right now as certain recent posts do not appear in the new forum software yet.

     

    Anyway, first disable File Handling > Save in Background in Illustrator preferences. I recall that this was responsible for certain issues with placed files in InDesign. Also, make sure that Illustrator is updated to its latest version.
