How to fix the bug with the Eyedropper Tool in Adobe Illustrator CS6 (not working Shift+Click)?

Hello! Adobe Illustrator CS6 has a bug: when using the Eyedropper Tool (eyedropper) does not work Shift+Click, which should be assigned to the active property of the selected object (outline or fill) ONLY the color of the object which produced the Shift+Click, not all of its properties. Shoveled the Internet and the clear answer is not found. This is a very common bug and I guess almost all users of this ran into him. A trifle, but unpleasant. Can anyone solved the problem? Thank you.

DOP. info: Windows 7 Ultimate (64-bit) Adobe Illustrator CS6 (64-bit) V. 16.0.3

Adobe Illustrator

Solution

In the absence of CS6 at hand can only advise to upgrade to Illustrator CC — in this version the bug with pipette no, everything works as it should.

I agree, irinei! SS they say, the most convenient version.

A miracle! Today I noticed that the eyedropper now works! Kind has not been updated, but it turns out, the program fell back to version 16.0.0 version 16.0.3. And in version 16.0.0 of this bug is not! Apparently Adobe ovtsev being bombarded with complaints and they decided to revert.
By the way, that version still crashes sometimes with an error, as it likes to make Corel Draw.

In General, the problem self-destructed :)
