Illustrator CC: Properties Panel will not Display.

[jefft45196948]

Hi all,

My properties panel will not display. I have uninstalled the program and reinstalled. The properties panel is not even present under Window. The closest I get is Window > CSS Properties.

Help

You need to update.

Thanks for the speedy answer...but Creative Cloud says I am up to date.

[Monika Gause]

There's no Puppet Warp tool, so you're not up to date.

Update Creative Cloud apps

UPDATE: Thanks for your assistance

I have uninstalled and reinstalled creative cloud, as well as all applications, and checked for updates.

I have release 21.1.) of Illustrator, the problem persists.

Thanks, anyways. Jeff

The current release is 22 or CC2018

[Doug A Roberts]

what mac os version are you running? if it's 10.10 or lower, you won't see the CC2018 update in the CC app because you need 10.11+ to run it.

I updated all of my apps this week, and It says I'm on 21.1.0 instead of 21.0.1

I am using Windows but do not see an option for version 22 or cc2018

Please help

THANKS DOUG!

Yes, I had to update my OS. I had incorrectly assumed that Creative Cloud would have a warning on this.

Thanks, Jeff

I don't think it's a update problem.

Which version do you run on which system?

I have this problem too!
I use macintosh 10.13.6 and adobe Illustrator cc 2015
Is this problem for this Version or something else??

There was no properties panel in Illustrator before the 2018 version.

I know this is an old thread now but I wanted to share my solution in case it helps someone.

Basically It turns out I somehow had two versions of Illustrator installed on my PC. Both were CC but one was an earlier version from a trial I had I think a while ago. For some reason this didn't get uninstalled and I was thinking I had the latest update the whole time since the CC launcher was telling me so. However since the shortcut I was using still linked to the old app- I was still using the old version without realising! I opened Illustrator from the Creative Cloud launcher and it was the newest version and I could now access the properties panel. I feel silly but hopefully this will help someone else.
