Illustrator on M1 Mac

[Federica5EFD]

I have read thet many people have switch to Rosetta 2 while using the M1 chip. But I cant switch on any of the adobe apps to Rosetta 2. When I open the Information from the app i dont see the option to switch. I have the latest Verion of the creative Cloud and Ilustrator too. The information from the App says "Type: Programm (Intel)". I have read that to use Rosetta 2 it must say "Type: Programm (Universal)". Is taht the Problem thet prevents me from switching to Rosetta 2. 

It is impossible to work while using the M1 chip and would need a solution.

Hi there,

Sorry to hear about your experience. Please follow instructions given on this Apple support article(https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT211861) to know how Rosetta 2 works & how you can manage your apps with it.

Hope it helps.

Regards,

Hello! I'm having this same issue. I have Rosetta 2 installed, I've tried creating a new profile within my computer to start Illustator from factory settings, and tried selecting Rosetta 2 in the app info. What are my other options?

You need the Rosetta 2 translation layer for Intel-only binaries. The whole point of Universal apps is that they contain both Intel and M1 binary code. At the moment Illustrator is only available for Intel CPUs thus Rosetta 2 is required to translate the binaries to M1. Once the new version comes out it will be supported natively.
