I can no longer save to my external hard drive. since adobe cloud offers the choice to back up to their cloud. How can I start backing up directly to my external hard drive?

Correct answer Brad @ Roaring Mouse

I never needed to do this. but where do I have to give access? I'm going to watch 🙂 hehe

The Full Disk Access thing is an Apple issue, so if you are on a Mac and have recently upgraded to/updated Monterey or Ventura, check that your Full Disk access permissions haven't been reset: System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Full Disk Access : your Adobe apps should be listed and checked. If not, add them back.

Your statement implies that you can only do one (or the other), when you should be able to choose.

You don't see this when you first save, or do a Save As?

What version are you running? Some have a check box in the File Handling preference where you can select the default save destination.

(I've just noticed that mine [27.4.1] does NOT. I don't need to save to the cloud by default (I never use it) but curious how I would make that default if I did want to!)

I am a graphic designer. all my work is on my external hard drive at home, I don't want to go to the cloud, but since ADOBE gives me access to their cloud, I can only save to my computer, and I can't save to my external disk, simply save, in the same place as the document is placed. here is the message i get when i only want to make a small change in a document which is on my external drive. and my excel documents, word pdf. they work very well for backup, it's only ADOBE
