Simple question about the cloud

9245  wrote So, once a file is uploaded or “synced” to the cloud, can I then delete that file from my computer, or would that cause it to also be deleted from the cloud since it is only “synced?”

The delete operation syncs also. Basically the cloud mirrors your situation on the disk.

Here is what you do so they are directly saved, not just synced

1. go to Adobe Creative Cloud and log in.

2. Along the top left, click on "Your Work"

3. In the upper right, click on the little file upload icon to directly upload files to your cloud storage without using sync.

Once they are done uploading, you can delete them off of your computer since they are now saved on the cloud. Though a good idea would be to also have them backed up to an external hard drive. It's always a good practice to have things backed up in at least two different places.
