Your Adobe Creative Cloud account comes with online storage so that your assets are available to you anywhere and on any device or computer. You can preview many creative asset types directly in a web browser on your computer, tablet, or smartphone. These asset types include: PSD, AI, INDD, JPG, PDF, GIF, PNG, Photoshop Touch, and many others.
The Adobe Creative Cloud desktop application keeps all the assets in sync. Any additions, modifications, or deletions are reflected on all connected computers and devices. For example, if you upload
Your Work includes files synced with your desktop, assets created using Creative Cloud–enabled mobile apps, and Creative Cloud libraries. You can browse all of these assets using Your Work, which organizes assets as follows:
- Files: Shows all your source files categorized into the following tabs:
- Synced Files: Shows assets synced with the Creative Cloud Files directory on your desktop.
- Cloud Documents: Shows your XD cloud documents.
- Mobile Creations: Shows assets created using Creative Cloud enabled mobile apps.
- Libraries: Shows design libraries created by you.
- Published: Shows artifacts of your source files - prototypes and design specs created in Adobe XD, and 3D scenes created in Adobe Dimension.
- Shared with You: Shows the folders, and prototypes and design specs shared with you.
- Deleted: Shows your deleted Creative Cloud synced files.
To sync assets from your computer, do one of the following:
- Copy, paste, or move assets to the Creative Cloud Files directory on your desktop.
- In an app, choose File > Save or File > Save As and navigate to the Creative Cloud Files directory.
Note:
To open the Creative Cloud Files directory from the Creative Cloud desktop app, select Files and click Open Folder.
Filenames that contain special characters such as |, ", ?, <, >, /, *, or : are not synced. Neither do files with reserved names, such as AUX or Com1. If you receive an error, rename the asset filename to sync it to Creative Cloud. For more information, see Error: "Unable to sync assets."
Drag and drop assets from your desktop to the Your Work page.
