Question

Hello, I want to ask:" How to integrate a private cloud (NAS or even iCloud) instead of using the very expensive creative cloud ?" 
And to be perfectly honest , I don't want use for every app a different cloud service and get billed for storage I already have in use with another cloud service !

 

I am looking forward to your answers and I hope don't need to watch out for Adobe alternatives ,because of the useless cloud concept. 

happy easter,

 

Phil

Ah - you didn't mention you were using the iPad version of Photoshop. I don't use that so cannot comment as to whether alternative storage can be used. I will move your post to the Photoshop for mobile forum where you are more likely to get a response to your question.

The reliable way is to save to a local drive and copy/sync on completion to whatever cloud service you choose. It is not recommended to save directly to NAS drives - see below:

Dear Dave,

many thanks for the fast reply , the information you shared is for the desktop version and how to store locally with the PS iPad App ? I could not find the function?

 

Many thanks,

Hi

To save locally on your iPad, choose Publish and Export in the upper right, select a format, and then you can save to Files on your iPad and create folders for organization. You can also connect a USBC cable to transfer files.

 

I looked in my list of choices and saw OneDrive and AirDrop as options. If you set up other services on your iPad, they may also be available. I like saving to Creative Cloud so I can work on it when I go to my other devices.
