Question

Corrupt files when I open them on a different computer

When I design on my work computer, everything is fine, but when I open the same files on my home computer, I get a warning that the file is corrupt for various reasons, whether the PDF is out of whack or the layers appear to be corrupt, or the document was modified outside of Illustrator (which it never was). It doesn't matter if it is a Photoshop file, or Illustrator file, or Indesign file, the corruption warning comes up in all these applications. The files are synced through Creative Cloud. Both my computers run the same version of all Adobe applications.

 

What is going on here?

Hi @allenw60937913 you're commenting on a three-year old post. What is your specific issue?

I have experienced exactly what the OP states (for the most part)

I have a work computer and a laptop. On the work computer, all my files are fine. I save them to my hard drive so I can take them on the go. I work on them on my laptop and they're fine. I open them back up on my stationary and the file becomes corrput. I make sure all applications are updated and upto date.  Starting to loose valuable work and it's very frustrating.
