Can you access files and edit them from different computers in Creative Cloud?

Jul 8, 2012 7:59 AM

I want to understand the workflow we can have. We have three computers and would like to access and edit the same files in Creative Cloud. Can you do this? I understand I may have to purchase two licenses but will this give everyone access to the same files and able to edit and upload files.

We do this in Dropbox now but with Creative Cloud is sounds like all I can do is share a file for them to comment on, not edit?

    Yupper... Works perfect... Each creative team member will need a cloud membership and it's preferred over Dropbox to utilize the embedded comments...

    Thanks David.

    We won't be commenting on files but will each be doing work on them and not necessarily at the same time. Thinking then we could have two licenses between three of us.

     

    We prepare the files for printing and I don't want to have to go to someone else's computer to prepare files especially if they are working on other things. Likely only two of of using the files at the same time.

    Hi Olivia,

     

    With Creative Cloud, file editing comes in via downloading Adobe applications with a Creative Cloud membership. While you cannot edit within Creative Cloud, you can share files with your coworkers which can then be downloaded, edited in an Adobe application, and reuploaded to the Cloud.

     

    Be aware that although you can have two computers activated on the same Creative Cloud membership, you cannot use the same application on two computers simultaneously. A Creative Cloud membership is for one user that can be used on one or more computers.

     

    You may want to look into the Creative Cloud Team Ready, that targets work environments like yours. You can read more about Team Ready here.

     

    Hope this helped clarify your questions!
