2022 plugins may crash older Macs under Catalina

I have received a handful of reports that 2022 plugins either crash Illustrator or Illustrator refuses to load them citing a conflict with its internal plugins. So far, affected systems are:

• 2013 or 2014 27″ iMac or
  2012 MacBook Pro
• macOS 10.15 Catalina
• Adobe Illustrator 2022

The problem may be resolved by updating macOS to Big Sur (11.0) or higher, if your Mac supports it (late 2013 models and newer).

If the plugins continue to crash under macOS 11 or higher, please use the contact form using the button below and include:

• Your computer model
• OS version
• Description of problem (crash or no-load dialog)
• Crash report if available

Another option, of course, is to continue using Adobe Illustrator 25 (2021) with the corresponding version of the plugins.
