Illustrator application window moves behind everything when I try to move it (mac)

It's a little difficult to explain this properly, but whenever I try to move the Illustrator program window to another part of my screen, it instantly moves behind every other program window I have open. Even if I just move it a teeny tiny bit...boom... now it's behind all the programs I have open. It is very annoying and I can't find a solution anywhere. I dropped in "before and after" screenshots if they help at all. You can see the "Pathfinder" toolbar is still in front of the Chrome window so it's definitely a weird glitch. The issue doesn't happen with any other Adobe program either. I have updated to the latest vesion of AI a few times and still no luck. I have a 2021 Macbook Pro. Anyone have a solution? Thank you.

The last Illustrator update 28.1 does not solve the problem whereas the beta 28.15 still solves it 😉

Hi Anshul,

I tried with Adobe Illustrator 2024 (Beta) 28.1 87 and seems the problem is resolved for me. Will I now have to use the beta to work and eliminate the other standard one?

I am having the same problem with Photoshop. Driving me crazy. Adobe products are becoming more and more buggy.

I am also having problems with Photoshop, and sometimes InDesign, going behind all open windows.
Thanks,

Hello All,

I understand that many of you are experiencing an annoying issue with Illustrator on your MacBooks, where the application window moves behind everything when you attempt to move it. I appreciate your patience and the information you've shared about this problem.

To further investigate and potentially address this issue, it would be helpful to gather some additional details:

Can each of you please confirm your macOS version? This will help determine if the issue is specific to certain macOS versions.
Did this problem start occurring after updating to macOS Ventura, or were you experiencing it in macOS Monterey as well?
As a potential workaround, a couple of users have reported success by changing their workspace to "layout." Have any of you tried this solution, and if so, has it resolved the problem for you as well?

This issue seems to be happening with corrupted user profiles & preferences. As for one user, there is no issue after running the app under a new admin user of macOS Ventura.

Additionally, for those of you who are still experiencing this issue, I recommend considering the possibility of updating to the latest macOS version, macOS Sonoma, if it's available for your device. Sometimes, macOS updates can clean up any profile corruption of preferences.

Your feedback and responses to these questions will help us better understand the scope of the problem and assist you further in finding a solution. Thank you for your cooperation, and I'm here to provide assistance as needed.

Best regards,

Anshul Saini

it occured with Ventura, not in Monterey

Same for me for months. MacBookPro M1 with Adobe last updates. I don't want to change my Workspaces. Very annoying Adobe that such a bug is existing. It looks like a bug from the 90's. Poor Adobe!

I have had the same issue for weeks. In an attempt to solve it, I asked the internets and it led me here. Very frustrating stuff, as people have stated. I too tried some of the solutions here and nothing stuck. BUT... and I am crossing my fingers here, I switched workspaces to "layout" and so far everything is back in order. Been a couple hours now. Perhaps try this one... if it reverts back to our hated glitch I will report back.

Thanks for the info and update. Seems to be working for me too, albeit only tested for an hour or so. Just need to get used to a new workspace, but I'd rather that than the window dropping away. Cheers!

Same thing is happening to me. I'm using 27.8.1. I need to have two browser windows open and three finder windows in addition to my Illustrator window for this current project. Makes workflow wonky. PLEASE FIX.

I am having this exact same problem for months now? Has anyone found a fix?

This may help, I was on with an adobe dev 2 times yesterday and they could only fix it temporarily. BUT i was watching what happened each time they took over the screen to fix, and it could be as simple as this... It only seems to happen with me now if my workspace is on Essentials Classic. Check whether this is the same for you, and if so create a new workspace that is bespoke to you. 1. the issue doesn't happen 2. you have your perfect workspace

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Hellow Anubhav,
Thank you for providing the pre-release version of Illustrator. This seems to be working well on my computer, and the Illustrator window is no longer going to the back of other windows.

Just an fyi, I do get a weird magenta background occasionally when I first move the Illustrator window from my secondary monitor to my Macbook Pro (I recently updated my computer to the M2Max).

Thanks for your help.

Best,
Kristin Rothgery
