Download Assets from Library

I occasionally found the way to download, when you hover over the asset there is a check box appearing in the top left corner.

As soon as you checked one of the files additional options show up in the top rigth side

It still remained glitchy for me because check boxes not always can be clicked but better than download filrs one by one

Well, it's December 2020 and this is still not resolved. There is NO download option in the Libraries (folders or individual items). I have a quick workaround that might help some of you although I know when you have hundreds of assets, it might not be ideal. I just opened a new document, selected all of the items in my library and dragged them into my document. Once the cursor is loaded, you can do a grid place (hold down Cmd-Shift) to place 9 items at a time. I think there's a way to change the number of rows/columns in the grid but I can't remember and 9 at a time isn't bad. You can do them very small, tiny... just so they're in there somewhere. Then I just selected them all in the Links panel and chose Copy Link(s) To... to save them all at once into an actual folder on my computer! I 100% agree that there is absolutely no reason why Adobe shouldn't have the option to download an entire library folder at once but this sure beats doing them one at a time.

drag that to your preffer location. and good luck naming them. 

David, your answer is marked as 'correct' yet it does not actually address ANY of the issues we are asking about, especially since adode just updated the library to make it almost impossible to do anything with your purchased downloads outside of their 'cloud' environment. The issue remains that 'our stuff' we purchase is held hostage in their cloud and we cannot download it directly to our computers to work on. They seem to fail to understand or just don't care that we as creators keep our stuff on drives so we can access it, even when we aren't online. having to go back and forth between our drive files or main could services ie onedrive, and having to go into a seperate cloud drive which won't allow us to download our purchases to use is extremely time consuming and counterproductive. Adobe seems to just not care. So many of us have been asking for YEARS for a way to even individually download assets at least, and still they give us nothing.

Hello. I agree it would be nice to get a download link for an entire library (they are after all my files).

However in my case I already have them locally.

At this location; User/my account name/Application Support/Adobe/Creative Cloud Libraries/Libs/

I'm using mac. As far as I know this is the default setting.

I will not be renewing my Adobe Creative Cloud. This forced lock in is my #1 reason why. It's absurd and insulting that Adobe thinks it should have more control over my assets than I do.

Thanks everyone for your patience while we worked on development of this.

We have released the ability to download library elements from assets.adobe.com! Click on your library > any element inside your library > the context menu (three dots) in the top right corner > 'Download' > then select which format you would like to download.

We are still working on a few features regarding Stock element downloads. For now, to download Stock videos or the unwatermarked version of purchased stock images you can go to stock.adobe.com.

Hello all commenters,

We are excited to announce that this feature is currently in development and will be available on the new assets.adobe.com very soon!

As eileentorch​ mentioned, the idea of CC Libraries is to have your libraries sync across all the apps, rather than having to download them to a computer or device. This allows teams working collaboratively to have a 'single source of truth', and supports linked element workflows. But we definitely understand that for some workflows and users, downloading from the assets website is key.

Thank you for your patience and feedback, we're listening!

I believe the idea is to sync the Adobe library with the CC apps so that you can access them from the apps, rather than having to download them to your computer or device. To access them, click "save" on the files you want to access in the Adobe library. Open the app you're going to use and go to "libraries" (in Premiere Pro, it's a tab in the project panel). You can access the files within the app that way.

Here is a link on how to access files from the Adobe library from the Adobe website: https://www.adobe.com/creativecloud/libraries.html

Oh dear. This is insane.

Smells of profit hunger to me. Why else would Adobe make such an incredibly simple and normal feature impossible, despite so many people wanting it?

Until I hear an explanation, I'm suspecting it's just Adobe trying to make it tat bit more inconvenient for people who might share copyrighted stock (even though, as mentioned, it's easy to do via Photoshop etc) reminds me of anti-user friendly Apple lock in, putting copyright infringement fear before user experience.
