Team plan: Files not syncing on desktop app

Hi, I have an Adobe Team plan for 5 users. 3 users are facing an issue with the desktop app (Synced Files). The files aren't syncing on the desktop app, but are visible on the web (assets.adobe.com). But there is no error message. We've tried re-installing the desktop app, and speaking to the Adobe customer care chat. But no help so far.

I'm aware Syned Files is being discontiued for Teams in Oct 2024 (in Feb for personal accounts), but why has it suddenly stopped working for a few members of the team?

Anybody else having the same issue?

    do they have updated cc desktop apps?

     

    if so, the should restart their computers and if there's still a sync problem, reset the cc desktop app by making sure it's in the foreground, then press:

    Win: Ctrl + Alt + R
    Mac: Cmd + Opt + R

    Thank you. Tried this. Didn't help.

    It almost feels like their desktop app has disconnected itself from the web. If they add a file to the CC desktop folder, nobody else can see it (not even on the web). And they can't see anybody else's files on the desktop app.

    Can't find a solution. Have checked firewall settings too.

    if it's a cc desktop issue, this is the remainder of the repair sequence:




    repair per https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install/kb/creative-cloud-install-stuck.html


    if that fails and you have windows, open your control panel > add/remove programs > cc desktop app > repair

    if that fails, uninstall using the correct uninstaller from https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/uninstall-creative-cloud-desktop-app.html#sa_src=web-messaging and then reinstall using*


    if that fails, do a clean cc install carefully following each applicable step:

    uninstall every cc app including preferences per https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/uninstall-remove-app.html

    then uninstall the cc desktop app, again using the correct uninstaller per https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/uninstall-creative-cloud-desktop-app.html#sa_src=web-messaging

    clean your computer of cc files per http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html

    check for, and if available, update your os

    if windows is your os, repair all ms visual c++ versions that can be repaired (use google if you don't know how to do this)

    if windows is your os update your ms visual c++, if it can be updated (use google if you don't know how to do this)

    restart your computer (don't skip this)

    reinstall the cc desktop app using the "alternative download links" at the bottom of the page at https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install/kb/creative-cloud-desktop-app-download.html

    use the desktop app to install your cc programs/trials

    NOTE: win 11 users that have trouble with the latest win 10 installer often have success with the older win 10 installer.
