Hi, anyone having issues when using Illustrator 23.1.1 with the new MacOS catalina?
Ever since I updated the OS to catalina, I can't open/save/save as/import/export or have access to any finder functions from the app.
My way around it is to make a copy of an existing file and edit the name and open it to change everything. This is annoying.
I've tried to remove and re-install the illustrator, resetting the preferences, don't work.

Any ideas?

This could be Adobe saving invisible temporary folders on your drive. This will stop you from having write permissions on those files. So even if you go to your permissions and see Read & Write, you still won't be able to save over the file. There are scripts to run that delete tmp and other problematic (non virus) invisible files, but I don't know which are safe to run with the new OS.
