I am very new to Adobe Illustrator and am attempting to make a logo. For some reason it seems like the program is linking items together that I do NOT want linked. I cannot ungroup them, and when I try to move or adjust 1 thing, all the others are effected.

How do i prevent this from occurring? I have included a screenshot showing the linking behavior. I would like each of those shapes to be treated independently.

Hello Jeremy what is going on is that you are painting whit "live painting" i know that because se little stars on the corners, it doest let the objects ungroup, you need to release the "live painting", Selecting the group and going (object) -> (live paainting) -> (release) and now the objects are free each one.

Select the object(s), right click and select ungroup.



Other things to remember


You might have selected the layer instead of the object itself.
If you have a clipping mask, everything will move together just like if the objects were grouped together.
