Can't upload photos into Creative Cloud

I have been trying to upload old photos (mostly jped and a few bmp) into my Creative Cloud. It is not a storage issue - I still have almost 1 To available. Uploading documents is impossible and when I try to upload individual files I get an error message saying the filetype is not supported. I have the issue on both my Windows computer and macOS and on both the app and the browser. What is going on?

Hey, @Elisabeth28473492nwjh! Welcome to the Lightroom Community. I'll clarify this for you.

 

If you're trying to use Creative Cloud file sync, it won't work, as the workflow has been discontinued. Please head here to learn more about this: https://adobe.ly/3AOiOh8

 

If you're getting started with syncing images in Lightroom & Lightroom Classic, you can head here to learn more about this: https://adobe.ly/3Oeqk7Z

 

Let me know how it goes. Thanks!

Thank you Sameer ! Indeed, it seems like Creative Cloud cannot be used like any other cloud out there - too bad. I have resolved to uploading my old photos via Lightroom and keep them in a seperate album.
