After the last update, when I try to move an object it makes a ding sound and you see a green + near the cursor as if I'm trying to drop it into something but I'm just trying to move it on the pasteboard. It freezes for a couple seconds and then when it drops it, it's not in the right place. SO FRUSTRATING! Is anybody having this same issue?
Hi All,

Just searching for "green cursor" should get you to other people who experience this.
YOu are on Mac OS and you are using an Apple mouse? Does it work better with a different mouse?

Yes I found another post about it form back in April. It looks like it was corrected with the 26.2.1 update but has just resurfaced in the 26.4.1 update.

I am on a Mac OS Monterey and I'm using the magic mouse but that has never been an issue in the years I've been using Adobe software.

It happens without the magic mouse when I just use the trackpad on my laptop.

Hi @Aimee5FA4,
We are sorry for the trouble. This issue appeared earlier in v26.1 and later got fixed in v26.2.1, but it has resurfaced again.
The product team is aware of the issue & they have identified the issue and currently working on a fix. I would request you to upvote this UserVoice for updates and stay tuned for the updates.
In the meantime, you may install the older version of Ai v26.3.1.
Thanks & Regards,
Anshul Saini

Does reverting to the older version reset preferences?

I did actually revert to 26.3.1 (and retained preferences) but the issue is still happening.

Hi @udderball,
We are sorry for the inconvenience. Would you mind checking if resetting preferences helps or not? You may take a backup of your preferences first. The steps are here (https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/kb/troubleshoot-preference-issues.html#:~:text=Create%20a%20back...).
However, if this doesn't help, would you mind checking if rolling back to v26.0.3 helps or not?
Also, please confirm the macOS version and Magic Mouse model you are using.
Looking forward to your response.
Regards,
Anshul Saini
