From my 10+ years’ experience with Adobe nothing will happen. I’ve filed severe bugs with Fireworks, Illustrator and InDesign in the past and if they got fixed at all it wasn't until the next PAID upgrade. This should have changed with the subscription model and in fact they do roll out updates and features more frequently. But once they’ve decided to remain silent on a topic you can rest assured it won’t be dealt with in the foreseeable future.

That being said, even if they add that one single feature CC will never be a robust team collaboration solution. Adobe has been ignoring how teams work for decades now. For starters none of their apps officially supports saving to or opening from a local network storage. Hmmmm …

Go try Layer Vault, Egnyte or box. Hell, even Dropbox or Google Drive will do a better job than CC most likely ever will.

ANOTHER year gone by.

Still. No. Solution.

But suddenly we're all paying an extra $30/month.  Because there's no competition.

Oh, Adobe - the day you have competition.

Folder sharing would be great. This is what I need. But why does this feature need to be an extra charge under Teams? This is just crazy. Waste uploading all of my projects. I just needed a back up for my co-works to access if there was an emergency. I just ended up giving all of them my adobe user-name and password. Still, on top of that, what is the thinking behind only allowing one file to be downloaded at a time. Why not enable a multi-select-to-download? Sheeeeesh.

What an unbelievable waste of time i had, uploading files for 7-8 hours on creative cloud storage, hoping to share it more "professionaly" with a graphic agency using CC, and at the end discovering it is not possible to share folder!

so, going back to Dropbox again. Thank you Adobe.

Need Folder Sharing ASAP!

The sharing of individual files has taken its toll.

Whats wrong with you ADOBE? No official comments, no official excuse, no official anything... just silence on the matter. This is very disappointing.

This is not Customer Service, its called Customer Ignorability= The ability to ignore your customer base due to the aggressive absorbtion (or lack) of any significant competition.

Feelings today: Highly Frustrated With Adobe

bumping.

We upgraded to team to share folders - why would anyone share an .indd file without the associated files?  Team is a collabration illusion, it is just individual storage, but more!

Customer: Please remind me why I bought Creative Cloud for Teams? 

Adobe: Because Adobe advertises and claims that teams can collaborate on projects. 

Customer:  Sweet!  How does my team collaborate on a project? 

Adobe:  Oh yeah... about that... you actually can't, because a project is made up of multiple folders, asset files, project files, etc., and the sync files system doesn't let you share more than an individual file.  It was just a joke (not to be confused with false advertising)!  Funny, huh?

Need this option very much. Your product is called Creative Cloud Teams, but our team is unable to collaborate within a shared folder. Surprised and disappointed, waiting for team folder sharing.

I have posted my solution to folder sharing that is not available with Adobe. I got scammed by the smoke and mirror trick at MAX, and my clients got conned as well, all of us stuck with one year of being robbed. All of us signed up for team account only to discover it's a scam that Adobe uses to sell the team accounts at an extra $20 a month, times the thousand that have signed for it. Sold on a feature that never materialized.

A single user account is all the "Adobe Cloud" software needed. As for storage and folder sharing Adobe can keep theirs, heck I got 200 gigs of "Cloud storage" with my new Nikon FREE.

Folder Sharing is where we had to spend a few bucks for our needs. Shawn (bless his heart) at forttechnology.ca/ in Fort Saskatchewan setup a cloud service that all the people involved in catalogue production, from photographers to the buyers proofing content. It is truly a work of art and it has been such a joy having unlimited folder and sub-folder control. A desktop sync folder that brought tears to my production management eyes.

I have been enraged in this joy I forgot the anger, pain and humiliation of being a victim of Adobe new rip off the user grab the cash management. Does John know this is going on. Adobe could use a good lecture from him.

I haven't posted in this form for a bit because I am happy. The number of post showing up in my email has brought back the humiliation feelings I suffered from falling victim to Adobe cash grab scam.

Call Shawn and ask him what he setup for me, contact your credit card company and let them know that you are paying for a service with your credit card and seller provided misleading information and has not offered any compensation for their shortfall. They are supposed to protect you from thieves like Adobe's with deceptive marketing scams. They will take action if they get enough complaints.

In Canada we are also bringing this to the attention of our MPs, our gov has a hate on for credit card companies and we are asking the gov to put pressure on the credit cards companies to stop Adobe's deception marketing and misleading claims.

Man this is unbelievable.  This technology already exists.  Google Drive and Drop Box are already doing this (which is why I'm not freaking out just yet), so what's the hold up here?  And yeah, the false advertising is pretty aggravating on this count.
