Question

How to activate a deactivated studet using the cloud console

We have a studet in our school. She createdAdobe cloud data. After the left the school, here Adobe account was deactivated. I saw here account but not as an active one. I shared here data with my Adobe account and was able to download a .zip file. This file contains a couple of .psdc file, but these files can’t be used in Photoshop for example. We want to help the studet to either:

  • Convert the Adopbe Cloud files (.psdc) or
  • Activate here Adobe student account, that she is able to work with the cloud data by here own.

    Have you tried opening the psdc files in Photoshop?

    What a stupid message, you can export your Adobe Cloud data (local) , but you will never ever  be able to work with your data again. In future I will tell the students not to trust the Adobe priciple with the cloud data of Adobe. And when the Adobe account is deactivated everything is lost, as outcome or result.
