I have tried everything including setting the keyboard increments, but the arrow keys do not move objects in illustrator. Can anyone advise?

What did you set it to?

Can you use the arrow keys to move the curosr in text entry fields in Illustrator?

This points to some other apps interfering with your modifier keys. Do you have any of this running?

Only Safari, but I just tried quiting out and it still doesn't move with the arrows.
