    Illustrator 10.0.1 Update - No Go?

    Several users on versiontracker.com state that the installer quits with either the message 'Default location not found' or installs mentioning a folder 'MacOSClassic'. Strange. Mine doesn't install. Thoughts? I personally think Adobe should test those installers. It's not the first time they have to pull back one. Remember InDesign 1.5.2 installer. Remember Photoshop 6.0.1 installer. *sigh*

    Same for me...

    The install wouldn't work on my G4/800DP, but worked OK on my PBG4/500.

    Adobe really needs to QA their updates a little better. First the InDesign fiasco, now this...

    Worked for me

    No problems what so ever. Upgrade made it faster but other than that I don't see much difference. What's your partition structure look like? I only have one partition on which os 9 and x are sharing. Must be a problem with that.

    Also, if you browse the comments you should find how some people manually moved the installed file somewhere, I can't remember what file or where they put it but if you look there, some people made it work.

    "The default location required for this install could not be found. This install will be cancelled."

    guess you have had to install illustrator in applications on your osx drive. since i haven't done that, it's giving me the same ridiculous message. let's bet (or intelligently guess) on how long it will take them to fix this problem
