Updating to newest version of CC software - problems.

[scottmosher]

I just updated most of my Adobe software to the newest versions of PS, ID, Acrobat, BR and IL. The current icons in my doc - need to be replaced. Weird. Now I have new software folders for all the new software and old folders of the old ones - more space being used with conflicting versions. Dumb. My preferences didn't carry over and the defaults of the new programs are quite different than what has come before or what I like. Distracting. And that's just so far. Anything else I should be wary of or concerned about? I'm not a fan of this way of updating and the inefficiencies it makes necessary or the changes I am required to make.

For example; I now have this blank document in Illustrator and InDesign that is now always open and is a distraction. How do I turn this off? I didn't ask for that, lol. And now I'm having font issues that I didn't have previously. Fonts in the document that were usable before, are now missing.

What gives? Is this one of those updates I'm going to regret employing?

scottmosher,

You may roll back and wait it out, watching what is reported here.

For new documents, you may use the Use legacy New Document Interface, see the screenshot by iambillythekid in post #7 here:
