Anyone using it?
I installed it recently and have been getting a lot of crashes. Thinking I might have a problem on my system.
Anyone else having issues?

i've had one crash only, and that was me getting a little excited with Live Trace. Dual 2GHz, 1.5 GB.
I'm running CS & CS2, haven't had any other problems. What is going on when it crashes?

Haven't checked the font situation...good suggestion...
I'm working on a document created someone else in an earlier version of Illustrator, CS, I believe. The design is a large number (as in hundreds) of drawn shapes grouped to make the design elements. I keep getting crashes when attempting to allign this group with some simple items, among them type. It could be the complexity of the files that is giving me issues.
My box and memory aren't the problem: Dual 2.5 with 6.5GB RAM.

just got mine to crash by making a group of random shapes, making several dozen copies, adding filters to some [outer glow to some, drop shadow to others] and aligning with a bit of text. Before adding the filters i couldn't get it to crash.

and of course, i just tried again, had several hundred shapes, distortions, shadows, etc....no crash.
when you do figure it out please post again here--it sounds like a typical software voodoo problem.
my only real problem in CS2 is slider controls...they tend to freeze up sometimes. Not for long, but its frustrating.

I was having a similar issue, so I just went back to CS1. But I have heard that if you also just installed Tiger that spotlight spends a couple of days catologing your files. I was also using Extensis and that is not supported, from what I heard. Can anyone confirm? So I am just adding them to the font folder under users. That is our companies new workflow.
I am going to slowly start using CS2 and see if it is better now that spotlight has had some time to update.

Extensis Suitcase Fusion has ironically solved a lot of font cache problems I had. Thank the gods!
I used to hate it (because of its non-subtle-OS-X-like interface behavior), but now, it's just a background utility.
