How do I specify the 'My Documents' folder as the sync directory for 'Creative Cloud Files'?

I know how to move the 'Creative Cloud Files' directory within preferences, but when I do this, it simply moves the 'Creative Cloud Files' directory within the 'My Documents' folder. I do not think you can set a specific folder as a 'sync' folder in the preferences. Would creating a symbolic link to the contents of 'My Documents' in 'Creative Cloud Files' directory work to enable the contents of 'My Documents' to sync with the cloud? This is for within Windows 8 BTW...

Yes, I understand this. Perhaps a suggestion then to offer this as a feature in a future update. It would be useful to be able to specify an existing documents directory. For example, I have a couple of years worth of client work (psd, html, tpl files mainly) that would be useful to be able to have synched to the cloud without having to relocate them. I have sites configured in Dreamweaver that if I moved those files to the Creative Cloud folder, I would have to reconfigure all those sites. It would just make management of the various Adobe file types easier to have this option.
Thanks for your help anyways.

  • Can I change Folder or path for Creative Cloud Files?

    Hi All,
    how can I change the path / folder?
    I don´t have enough space on C: : )

    Hi @amia,
    Yes, you can change the location of the "Creative Cloud Files" folder on your desktop computer.  In the CC desktop app, select the Settings icon (gear icon in upper right), then the "Preferences..." menu option.  Click the Files tab and you'll see the "Folder Location" option. 
    Hopefully this works for you.
    Thanks,

  • How to you change from many single private memberships to team membership for Creative Cloud??

    I am an employee in a design company - we have all bought single creative cloud memberships, but it might be easier if we changed all these to one team membership - so we have better control over how many licenses we have - how do we do this the easiest?
    With a team membership will you still have 2 licenses per user (as we need this)

    Team license links that may help

  • How can I view my Creative Cloud Files on my iOS device?

    Hi All, I recently turned on file sync in my Creative Cloud app, and like the WEB UI overall.  I'm considering permanently switching to CC from Dropbox.  The one thing I can't seem to find is a CC iOS application.  Are we seriously expected to browse our files via mobile device on a browser? There is no app?
    Excerpt from Adobe Site:
    "Your Adobe Creative Cloud account comes with online storage so that your files are available to you anywhere and on any device or computer. You can preview many creative file types directly in a web browser on your computer, tablet, or smartphone. These file types include: PSD, AI, INDD, JPG, PDF, GIF, PNG, Photoshop Touch, Ideas, and others."
    Edit: I just tried using the file explorer via Safari and Chrome on my iPhone 5s and the scrolling is completely broken, I can only see the first few folders, and am unable to scroll down for the rest.

    1. I'll make sure to do that
    2. The Touch Apps do not help me with the functionality I am looking for.
    3. I contacted Adobe Support and received no help, transcript below:

  • About downloading the apps for creative cloud

    I am trying to download Photoshop and Dreamweaver but I can't each time I try it says I alreay have it on my iMac but I don't have it.  How can I download the software?  I want to sign up for Creative Cloud but need to install the software first.

    Hi Lorepeter,
    Are you using a MAC or Windows ? If you had a trial already installed on your machine ealier, I am afraid you will have to purchase the product to use as unfortunately we cant extend the trial period .
    If you havent installed the product's on your machine so far ,please try in a different browser and check .

  • How Can I Determine the Size of the 'My Documents' Folder for every user on a local machine using VBScript?

    Hello,
    I am at my wits end into this. Either I am doing it the wrong way or it is not possible.
    Let me explain. I need a vb script for the following scenario:
    1. The script is to run on multiple Windows 7 machines (32-Bit & 64-Bit alike).
    2. These are shared workstation i.e. different users login to these machines from time to time.
    3. The objective of this script is to traverse through each User Profile folder and get the size of the 'My Documents' folder within each User Profile folder. This information is to be written to a
    .CSV file located at C:\Temp directory on the machine.
    4. This script would be pushed to all workstations from SCCM. It would be configured to execute with
    System Rights
    I tried the script detailed at:
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/heyscriptingguy/archive/2005/03/31/how-can-i-determine-the-size-of-the-my-documents-folder.aspx 
    Const MY_DOCUMENTS = &H5&
    Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
    Set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
    Set objFolder = objShell.Namespace(MY_DOCUMENTS)
    Set objFolderItem = objFolder.Self
    strPath = objFolderItem.Path
    Set objFolder = objFSO.GetFolder(strPath)
    Wscript.Echo objFolder.Size
    The Wscript.Echo objFolder.Size command in the script at the above mentioned link returned the value as
    '0' (zero) for the current logged on user. Although the actual size was like 30 MB or so.
    I then tried the script at:
    http://www.experts-exchange.com/Programming/Languages/Visual_Basic/VB_Script/Q_27869829.html
    This script returns the correct value but only for the current logged-on user.
    Const blnShowErrors = False
    ' Set up filesystem object for usage
    Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
    Set objShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
    ' Display desired folder sizes
    Wscript.Echo "MyDocuments : " & FormatSize(FindFiles(objFSO.GetFolder(objShell.SpecialFolders("MyDocuments"))))
    ' Recursively tally the size of all files under a folder
    ' Protect against folders or files that are not accessible
    Function FindFiles(objFolder)
    On Error Resume Next
    ' List files
    For Each objFile In objFolder.Files
    On Error Resume Next
    If Err.Number <> 0 Then ShowError "FindFiles:01", objFolder.Path

    FindFiles = FindFiles + objFile.Size
    If Err.Number <> 0 Then ShowError "FindFiles:02", objFile.Path
    Next
    If Err.Number = 0 Then
    ' Recursively drill down into subfolder
    For Each objSubFolder In objFolder.SubFolders
    On Error Resume Next
    If Err.Number <> 0 Then ShowError "FindFiles:04", objFolder.Path
    FindFiles = FindFiles + FindFiles(objSubFolder)
    If Err.Number <> 0 Then ShowError "FindFiles:05", objSubFolder.Path
    Next
    Else
    ShowError "FindFiles:03", objFolder.Path
    End If
    End Function
    ' Function to format a number into typical size scales
    Function FormatSize(iSize)
    aLabel = Array("bytes", "KB", "MB", "GB", "TB")
    For i = 0 to 4
    If iSize > 1024 Then iSize = iSize / 1024 Else Exit For End If
    Next
    FormatSize = Round(iSize, 2) & " " & aLabel(i)
    End Function
    Sub ShowError(strLocation, strMessage)
    If blnShowErrors Then
    WScript.StdErr.WriteLine "==> ERROR at [" & strLocation & "]"
    WScript.StdErr.WriteLine " Number:[" & Err.Number & "], Source:[" & Err.Source & "], Desc:[" & Err.Description & "]"
    WScript.StdErr.WriteLine " " & strMessage
    Err.Clear
    End If
    End Sub
    The only part pending, is to achieve this for the 'My Documents' folder within each User Profile folder.
    Is this possible?
    Please help.

    Here are a bunch of scripts to get folder size under all circumstances.  Take your pick.

  • How do I unlock My Documents folder in the hard-drive with another PC?

    I have a 3000 series j100 desktop, 3 days ago restarted on its own and can't boot anymore, no keyboard, no mouse and no monitor signal sent from the pc.
    I took the drive out and use it as an external drive to my laptop, but it asks for a password before I can access My Documents folder.
    I believe it's the windows xp login password that's needed, but there's no field on that pop-up box to enter any password it asks.
    I know my windows login password, but I don't know if that's what really needed and how to use it to unlock the folder.
    Is there another way to access the folder, or do I need to get the computer working again to access the folder in the drive?
    I also do have some encrypted files inside My Documents folder that I created with windows when the pc was working.
    The encryption comes along with windows xp. When you right-click a file, you choose properties and advance option then apply the encryption, then the file name turns color to green.
    Could it be the reason I can't access My Documents folder in the drive with another pc?
    Please help, I need to know if I need to do a recovery job or is there an easy way to access My Documents folder in the drive with another computer.

  • I have added the Documents folder to the Dock, however when I save a document it doesn't appear in the Documents folder on the Dock, only the Documents folder in the Finder.  Is this a quirk, so am I doing something wrong?

    I like having my Documents folder on the Dock so I added the Documents folder from the Finder to the Dock.  When I save a document to the Documents folder, the saved document appears in the Documents folder from the Finder and not in the Documents folder on the Dock.  Why is this happening?  And how can I change this?

  • How can I create a new documents folder

    Anyone know how I can create a new documents folder in my home folder? I accidently deleted it. Nothing was in it, so I don't need to recover it. I just want a new empty documents folder.
    Actually, never mind. I solved the problem myself.
    At first I created a folder in the sidebar, and it didn't have the documents icon on it. I just solved the problem by deleting that icon, then creating a new folder in the main window, naming it "documents", and then the documents icon appeared. Then I dragged it to the sidebar and it created a copy there.

    My mistake. I was able to create a new documents folder without any throuble.

  • After saving a file using Excel 2010 in the My Documents folder, it cannot be found using the open button in Excel 2010

    When certain files are saved using Excel 2010 to the My Documents folder, they cannot be found by using the Open button within Excel 2010.  But the file is always found using My Computer and following the path to My Documents.  What is
    even odder is that if I do a "Save As" within Excel and rename the file to the same name but with a "!" at the beginning of the name, it will then show up in the Excel Open window.  There doesn't seem to be a distinct pattern as to
    when the file can or cannot be displayed by the Excel Open button.
    I am using Windows 7 64bit along with Office 2010 64bit.  Windows has current service packs and updates.  There are perhaps 200 - 400 Excel files in the My documents folder. Some of them are .XLS and some are .XLSX.

    Hi,
    Do you mean that you can't find the Excel file when you click Excel->Open->My Documents folder? 
    Do you use the other folder path to test?
    Dose the issue occur in other Office suits (Word, Power Point)?
    Do you get some error message, like "Windows cannot find 'FilePath\FileName', Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again."?
    Please try the following methods:
    Method1:
    1. Go to the registry. Click START, and in the RUN command line type REGEDIT and hit ENTER or click OK.
    2. Navigate to the following key: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Excel.Sheet.8\Shell\Open\Command
    3. Double click on the (Default) instance over to the right. Right now this probably says something like:
    C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\EXCEL.EXE /dde
    Change this value to:
    C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\EXCEL.EXE /e "%1"
    4. Navigate to the following key: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Excel.Sheet.12\Shell\Open\Command
    Again, double click the (Default) entry to the right and change
    C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\EXCEL.EXE /dde
    to
    C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\EXCEL.EXE /e "%1"
    Note : Please backup the registry key before you modify.
    Method2:
    Click the File tab, and then click Options.
    Click Advanced, scroll down to the General
    section, and then clear the Ignore other applications that use Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE) check box in the
    General area.

  • How do I get photos from the iPhoto import folder to the iPhoto library?  It uploaded, but hung while deleting from my camera, so no imported photos are in the iPhoto library.

    How do I get photos from the iPhoto import folder to the iPhoto library?  It uploaded, but hung while deleting from my camera, so no imported photos are in the iPhoto library.  I watched it upload about 400 photos, one by one.  They're somewhere, but they don't appear in the iPhoto library. As iPhoto was deleting them from my camera, it got hung up, then a message came "you should eject before disconnecting a device."  I hadn't touched the camera.  The message came by itself.  I couldn't get iPhoto to respond, so I disconnected the camera and did a Force Quit.  Opening it back up, the pictures were gone.  Can somebody help me? 

    What version of iPhoto are you running?  Assuming it's iPhoto 9 or later Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

    thanks,

    This is a Basis issue. It may not be only about the SAP part, it could also be related to the LAN settings and the sharing and security aspect as set by the administrator. An issue similar to the one you mentioned was solved for us qutie fast by the Basis team. I am talking about a month back.
