Hi Laura. Like everyone else, I've also been wondering how this will affect me. I really only use Sync for Lightroom between mobile devices and desktop, and occasionally Photoshop. I see that you've covered it here: 00:30 "This does not affect your Cloud Documents from the mobile apps or ones saved to the cloud from the desktop apps", but could you clarify this a bit more? Are we losing Sync between devices and Cloud Storage. It suggests that we're not, but I'm not finding very much information online about this. If I need to download all my photos, I'd rather do that now than wait until the last minute. From your video, I don't think it has any impact on my workflow. Thanks.

in my Creative Cloud Files folder where according to your video is the synced file, it has one thing in it, that thing being _Cloud documents. That was something automatically put in there (I know because before hearing about this I never even touched the Creative Cloud Folder), but it is very important because when I click on it it takes me to ALL of my cloud documents. Should I move that out of the file or is it supposed to be there and if I keep it there will it lose all of my files?
@LauraCoyle
@LauraCoyle 6 ай бұрын
I see that in my folder, too - it's a link that takes you to a web page displaying your Creative Cloud account open to the Files tab. That link is not the files themselves but a shortcut to viewing them, similar to how you would view them in the Creative Cloud desktop app.

Hi Laura, thanks for the tutorial. This might sound like a silly question, but can I just drag and drop the creative cloud file into my side bar on my mac? will that automatically save them locally?
@LauraCoyle
@LauraCoyle 5 ай бұрын
The sidebar on a Mac is like a "favorites" menu, so those are not original folders, per se but shortcuts to the folders. The folder actually lives in your Mac user folder. Adobe says they will not move that folder or delete it, just stop the cloud connection. But, on your Mac, you can go to Users > Your user name > Creative Cloud files and move or copy that folder somewhere else. I made a copy just for my peace of mind, but I'll wind up having to delete it later, I like backups ;-) and I'm just waiting to see what happens to the original folder.

Ahh thank you for clarifying. I moved the folder to my icloud drive and called it "backup". So hopefully it's sorted now I assume? Very typical of Adobe to always change things around and not give in depth info. Thank you so much @@LauraCoyle

Hi Laura! I'm so confused! 🤦‍♀ I go back and forth from Fresco to Illustrator (and vice versa) to add to and alter my designs. I save my Illustrator file on my Mac book in 'Creative Cloud files' so it then appears in Fresco when I use the little 'photo' icon- choose creative cloud then CC files. I really just use it so trace over and add bits to my design, then send it back to illustrator. I found this works for me and now I'm not sure how to open my illustrator file in Fresco when This option disappears! When I click 'Save As' Save to Creative Cloud I cannot seem to find them again in Fresco. Can you help at all?
@LauraCoyle
@LauraCoyle 6 ай бұрын
I see what you mean! Illustrator files can't be edited in Fresco, but I think I understand that you are using them like you would use images and sketches to trace over. I don't work this way myself, but I just tried to click the photo icon in Fresco, choose Files, then choose Dropbox - but I can see that Illustrator files and PDFs are greyed out and not available. You can choose images saved in Dropbox, but not Illustrator content. Your workaround may be to use screenshots of your Illustrator work (or image exports) and instead of saving it to Creative Cloud Files as you are doing now, drag the screenshot into dropbox (or other file sharing cloud) or export the image to dropbox. Then click the photo icon in Fresco, choose Files, choose Dropbox (or iCloud Drive, etc.). Let me know if that helps!
@LauraCoyle
@LauraCoyle 6 ай бұрын
Also, just saw the last part - when you "save as" from Illustrator, and choose Save to Creative Cloud, this creates an .aic file in your Creative Cloud, which can't be opened in Fresco. You can only open psdc files or import a .psd from the Home Screen in Fresco. But, if you have .aic files you want to use, you could open them in Illustrator on the iPad, click export, quick export as PNG, choose Dropbox, and then you can place the image export in Fresco.

I thought I had lost everything, sent them screenshots, was transferred three times on the chat and then the last rep simply left the conversation! Adobe is going backwards by taking away this feature and it's getting harder and harder to justify the large chunk of money I pay monthly for Creative Suite.

You're welcome! Once I dismissed the warning in the Creative Cloud desktop app, it stopped showing everywhere else. That sync folder can be accessed and some people use it on the iPad, so that may be why the warning shows. Cloud Documents (.psdc and .aic files) on the iPad are not affected, and they will still be visible on your iPad and on the Home Screen of Photoshop and Illustrator on the desktop.

Hi Laura. This wording is confusing me still. This appears when I open up Creative cloud on the website. Can you please add your thoughts, and you may have mentioned it on your video and I have misunderstood. All of my work is synced and stored on Creative Cloud, but I know they are also stored on my PC. I have copied them to OneDrive via my PC just in case. Although, I want to move to an iPad Pro. Saving files to anywhere other than Creative Cloud on the iPad (which the directory isn’t visible in My Files) is impossible currently. This may be updated after Feb 1? Thanks in advance (It seems comments don’t like being italicised and are removed). This is the wording on the creative cloud website: After February 1, 2024, we’re discontinuing file syncing, removing the cloud copies of your synced files and removing shared folders/files. We will not remove files stored on your computer.
@LauraCoyle
@LauraCoyle 6 ай бұрын
I'm not sure what you are asking - sorry! Creative Cloud is a world of files and apps, but this change only affects the folder I showed in the video. Adobe calls these files "Synced files." Adobe's term is confusing because we all think of anything in a cloud in terms of syncing. If you have been placing your files in that folder to store and share them (like Dropbox), they will be affected. If you simply create cloud documents using the apps, these will not be affected. I hope that helps!

You can find everything under Files, Your Files in the Creative Cloud browser. If you are looking for Cloud Documents, Libraries, they are there on that page. The synced files (which this video is about) are under "Launch More" at the bottom, and you can zip and download them now - something new since this video was published. Hope that helps!

@LauraCoyle I can't even find the word files anywhere, lol. I finally downloaded the desktop Creative Cloud app, and found everything I needed. I just couldn't find it through the browser for some reason, lol. Thanks

​@@LauraCoyleI have an issue similar to this, except that the only way I can see my files is through the Adobe creative cloud mobile app. However I cannot share and download the original files, only jpgs. I'm scared that my files are gone forever or locked what do I do? I already contacted Adobe so many times but no one will answer through phone or email.

For $60 a month, they should be still keeping the synced folder not taking away features

I know! That folder was not crucial to my workflow, but I used it a little, so I will miss it.

Well only if you actively use that Sync folder. If you don't then all your other files saved in the Cloud should be fine (if I understood correctly). Becuase I pay for the same too, but those files shouldn't be affected. Its only for the Cloud Sync (which most ppl use for sharing projects as links and such). The storage you pay for should not be affected (I think!) :-)

Thank you for adding this comment! You're right, and it doesn't change the amount of storage space on the cloud - just means you have more to use for Cloud Documents, CC Libraries, etc.

Yeah! I just spoke with Chat support, and she said everything in my cloud files would be safe. anything specifically in the clouds "sync" folder would be removed. Just as explained in this amazing video 🙂
