Illustrator CS3 does not open?

I'm unable to launch Illustrator (CS3/Mac OSX) and trying to start I get an error message saying "Unable to set a maximum number of files to open." I got software for almost 3 years and have never had a problem. Can someone advise on how I could solve this?

  • Illustrator CC does not open and request the police Verdana size to be activated

    Has anyone encountered this error message?

    "Illustrator CC has stopped working. Please activate the Verdana fonts and relaunch Illustrator. »

    I checked the police and it is activated but Illustrator refuses to open. I uninstalled CC and reinstalled, but still no joy.

    I'm running that the latest version of Suitcase Fusion 5 and Verdana is enabled. CS6 seems to work, but my CC files do not open in an editable on CS6 form.

    Mac with the latest operating system.

    bengilbey,

    You need all members of the family of fonts active Verdana, Regular, Italic, Bold, Bold Italic (at least for Mac), as well as Tahoma (again, I think, you can treat if you get an error on this subject).

  • Illustration CS3 does not work with the new update on mac

    I downloaded the OS X EL CAPTAIN and now none of my adobe CS3 applications do not work... Please can someone help me.

    There are people who claim that it works. You could try and completely uninstall CS3 and then run the Adobe cleaning tool, and then install again. Still, there could be some necessary hacks.

    But in fact it was a bad idea to install a new system when you want to continue to use software.

    Downgrade the system or upgrade to Illustrator.

  • Smarth photoshop object does not open in illustrator for editing.

    Hello, I have a problem when using photoshop. I always use photoshop and illustrator in the same work, there are files written in the online adobe illustrator (graphics) library. When I go into Photoshop and then load the library file in the document normally use as a smart object. But a week ago I could double-click smart objects and open the Illustrator to edit it, even the smart object is already in the document. For example: I gave two clicks, it opened in Illustrator, I have edited and he edit in photoshop. Only, it is more the fact, to give - click on the smart object does not open in illustrator and a message saying "cannot be displayed in photoshop." How can I make him recognize the file in "AI." and open again directly in illustrator?

    This happens because you try to change the file that is located in the cloud. You must open this file in AI of the Cloud in order to change it. You can also try the alt/opt down key now when you try to open the SO.

    I think you are talking after upgrade to CC 2015 you're not able to launch I. Also, I believe you speak for read only matter of preference.

    After following the instructions please do not launch Illustrator and check your file preference if the permissions have been set correctly. A good way would be to get inside the preferences folder and then try to create a file manually. If it succeeds, please write to [email protected]

  • Illustrator does not open "an unknown error has occurred (-108)".

    I installed Yosemite a few weeks and it took several days to finally get things working again. Everything was fine for awhile, but now Safari try to continually reload pages, Mail crashes when I check new messages (it disappears without warning), Illustrator gives me "unknown error (-108)", just InDesign disappears when I try to start it, Word does not open, preview does not work in the finder. This is a major drawback and makes my pretty useless Mac.

  • Updated for Photoshop, InDesign, and Illustrator 6/18, now nothing does not open: error 16

    Updated for Photoshop, InDesign, and Illustrator 6/18, now nothing does not open: error 16. None of the 16 fixed error using the Adobe PCD folder permissionms and SLS store work. Uninstall and reinstall do not work. Is on the phone with Adobe 5 times since that happened on June 18. Probalby spent 5 hours on the phone with 4 different tech. I'm waiting for a recall, but the guy Adobe told me that it will be 2 days. Other engine have this same problem... everything is resolved? Help!

    PS - also made a new user account and tried to open with that, thinking it was a permissions problem. Always error 16. Frustrating... can not work if I don't have the software.

    I found a solution on a post in the forum.

    Installation of creative application Cloud Desktop caused my PS CS6 and applications of Cloud Photoshop CC go error 16. After trying just about everything, open the Terminal and type:

    sudo chmod-r 777 library/Application\ Support / Adobe

    instantly solves the problem.

    I think I typed in my login pw also when he asked for it.

    It worked for me also! After 8 days and 7 hours on the phone with Adobe, it worked. And no thanks Adobe... the tech support people 'high' of my case, but continued in havingme circles try the same thing with the same results: error 16. I was promised a call back 3 times and NEVER RECEIVED a reminder. I used to think strongly about Adobe and I look forward to the new release... no more. It is aggravating and costly for a professional designer go 8 days without being able to use the software, that we rely on. Kudo forum for suggesting a solution that works. Boo to Adobe for not to do so.

    Hi Argi,

    Exactly as indicated by our MVP, compatibility issues hit blindly and it is not very rare that one of your apps (PS) works in this case well and I is not. Suggest you to upgrade.
