Adobe Illustrator will not open PNG files anymore

Illustrator has stopped letting me open PNG files. I never had an issue before until maybe a few days ago. I've tried every way I can think of to open it; right clicking on the image in the desktop, file open in illustrator, etc. No matter what I do, the file just will not open. Illustrator doesn't even give me an error or anything, the image simply just does not open in Illustrator.

I actually think I found the issue after reading another post where a user couldn't open any type of files. It stated that Adobe searches for a printer when opening an image (not sure why) but the printer that was set as my Default printer no longer works. Therefore, Adobe couldn't connect to it. I changed my default printer in Windows settings and my PNG files will now open.

Hello Anshul,

Can you please help me role back from 25.4.8 to 25.4.7? I can not bring PNG files in. I also can not get any FX to be visible. When I insert an FX, go to the appearnce tab and double click on the FX nothing happens, no panel opens. If I double click on anything else in appearnce such as opacity, a small box (as expected) will open and let me adjust settings.

I am on Mac 10.14.6 Mojave. A 2012 Mac Pro. I can not update. I need to roll back to a previous version.

 

Thank you!

Hi @hokb,

 

Thanks for reaching out. I can help roll you back to v25.0, not to v25.4.7. I will be sharing the download link via DM. Please ensure you download it next 24 hours; otherwise, the link will expire.

 

Thanks,

Anshul

Thanks, I found an older version on my computer. I normally delete the older version. As luck would have it this older version has the functionality enabled and is working. Sorry to bother you. Thanks for the quick reply and help!
