Hi, we have been playing around with the cloud file storage and it all works great. The only problem is we would now like to delete some files and move some to a different directory, however we just can't seem to fidn a way to do either?

    To remove the file from Cloud Selecdt the batch button and then select the file you want to delete.

     

    Same works for moving files.

     

    Thanks

    To delete files click the Batch icon (check mark) and then click on the thumbnails of the files you want to delete. Then click the Delete icon (trash can) and click the red button 'Delete n items'. You have now trashed the files but not permanently deleted them. To the right of these icons you can see a dropdown box set to All. Switch it to Deleted and repeat the process to permanently delete the files.

     

    To move files click the Batch icon (check mark) and then click on the thumbnails of the files you want to move. Then click the Move icon (four arrows radiating out) and from the dialog select the folder you want to move the files to.

     

    And yes we realize this is not intuitive. Improvements are coming. You can read more here at this Adobe blog http://blogs.adobe.com/creativecloud/coming-soon-to-creative-cloud/.

    I looked for the batch button - I assume it should be to the left of the magnifying glass.  Tried the files tab on both my pc and mac.  There is no icon to the left.

    The UI has changed since my answer on May 21. The Batch button is gone and there are now two views - Grid and List. To switch between these use the buttons just to the left of the Sidebar.

     

    From Grid view you can click on the triangle to the right of the file name below the thumbnail. This will give you two options: Move (to a folder) or Trash.

     

    From List view you can check the box to the left of the items you want to take an action on, and there is a Select All check box at the top. As soon as you check some items you will see the same two options appear: Move (to a folder) or Trash.

     

    Once you have Trashed items you can switch to the Trash View using the trash can button that is next to the grid and list view buttons. You can then Permanently Delete files or Restore them.
