I am using CS 5.1 at home; it's all I got anymore that works. I can't remember how to set file preferences so that it goes to the most recently browsed folder. I have 74 signature tif scans I need to place on to vector art for a T-shirt, and it sucks.
"There's been a lot of research recently on how hard it is to dislodge an impression once it's been implanted in someone's mind. (This is why political attack ads don't have to be true to be effective. The other side can point out their inaccuracies, but the voter's mind privileges the memory of the original accusation, which was juicier than any counterargument ever could be.)"

Not sure about Illustrator but the Mac OS File Open Dialog usually lists your most recent folders in the menu that shows where you are currently at:

When you click it you should see a list of your recent folders:

If that doesn't work for you there is a great utility called Default Folder X for $34.95. Also it has a free 30 day trial.

Just thinking out loud

Adobe allows you to have 2 computers activated  for each licence. Supposedly it is a desktop and a laptop and you can only use 1 computer at a time.

I can confirm that it will activate on 2 desktops.

If you are only using the home computer after hours .  .  .  . (fill in the blanks) 😁😁😁

You now have access to the latest version of CC
If you don't like my comment, ignore it. If you don't know how to ignore it, message me and I will be only too happy to demonstrate how.
