I got a new phone but none of my adobe scans are on my new phone. When I go to sign in on my old device, it has me signed out the app and I cannot find my login nor all my old scans. I need help recovering my scans and figuring out which email address is associated with my account.

I am having the same problem.  Adobe tech support no help.  They suggested I try community support.  I tried all the suggestions in the fourm.  reloaded the app on my new phone, logged out of the cloud.  Nothing has helped yet.

Hi All,

   

Thank you for posting your query here. Could you help me with few details to understand your issue better?   

  1. Have you deleted it from your device or from the application?   
  2. Application version?   
  3. OS using?

    

If your scans are missing, try the steps below:

  • Check and sign in with the same email address which you used earlier to save scans. Try all the possible Adobe accounts you have. 

 

  • In case of iOS, check if you are using your Apple ID
  1. Go to the home screen/recent screen (that has the scans listed)
  2. Tap on the profile icon on top left (iOS) or hamburger menu on top left (Android)
  3. On the top the email id/login in with which you are logged in would be displayed. Confirm if this is the same email id that you used to create the scans earlier.
  4. If the answer is yes, logout and then choose the option to sign in via apple id
  5. Use the same email address that was displayed during step 4 to login via Apple id.

 

  • Adobe Scan saves the documents as PDF in the Adobe Document Cloud. You may check your saved files over here, Open the link Adobe Document Cloud.  

Note: If you are not uploading the files to Adobe Document Cloud or saving it to any other location, then the files will be deleted permanently.   

 

Best Practices: We suggest you always save a copy of the file to some other location, or you can upload the files to Document Cloud.   

If the files were saved within the application, they are uploaded by default to Document Cloud.   

  1. Open Document Cloud and sign in with your Adobe ID and the password.    
  2. Then go to Files > Document Cloud > Adobe Scan folder.   
  3. Here you will see the Adobe Scan folder. Please look for your files here.   

   

Let me know how it works at your end. If you have any further queries please feel free to reach.   

 

Regards
