I followed this, but it didn't quite do the job and then found that your other link/advice worked: http://joemaller.com/2007/08/10/fixing-cs3-all-apps-crash-when-saving/ Also, just completely removed Version Cue (which I've never learned to use properly) and solved my Illustrator problem, not sure if I'm ready to try and run updater yet.

Also, just completely removed Version Cue (which I’ve never learned to use properly) and solved my Illustrator problem, not sure if I’m ready to try and run updater yet.

Thank you so much

Another updates just fine. I tried this approach with no luck. I have reinstalled as Adobe suggests to no avail. Perhaps I will never get these to update...

What finally worked was (semi) simple: Using the original Standard Suite DVDs I uninstalled all programs then reinstalled all programs. Then I downloaded ONLY the Illustrator 13.0.1 updater directly from Adobe's website. (I did NOT use Adobe's Auto Updater from within any of the program's.) The standalone Illustrator updater was successful. THEN I launched Photoshop and used Auto Updater to update the remainder of the suite. I tried a few of the suggestions above and elsewhere.

Even uninstalling Illustrator and reinstalling it did not change this, so I was confident that cab.db just contained bad values.

I had to repair/reinstall, and everything was fine afterwards EXCEPT Illustrator. Every fix I found on the web did not work. The problem was reported to be in file compare dates in cab.db. Still Illustrator reported version 13.0.0 and would want to and yet refuse to install 13.0.1 saying various things over time. I found that copying the 13.0.2 files (the Adobe Illustrator CS3 directory) from my original Program Files/Adobe directory before the repair/reinstall did fix the problem. It caused Illustrator to report version 13.0.2 and Adobe Updater to recognize that no updates were needed. At least I think it is fixed. Perhaps I will never know for sure :o) Steven This won’t help most but it might help someone. I had to repair/reinstall, and everything was fine afterwards EXCEPT Illustrator.
