Adobe reader in android won't sync with OneDrive

Hi

 

I have Adobe Reader 24.7 and I have it connected to my One Drive account.

Up to a few weeks ago I could read and edit pdf files from my One Drive and, after closing the document,it would upload the modifications to the cloud.

 

But lately, it does not happen at all. 

It is not related to file size, internet connection... I have updated both apps and didn't solve. Rebooted and also cleared cache and uninstalled and reinstalled... But nothing seems to work.

 

How can this be corrected?

Correct answer Amal.

Hello Amal, 

 
Thanks in advance for your reply.
 
On my Android tablet I don't get an error message. But the Adobe app isn't updating the files to the OneDrive cloud as I edit them. I use the adobe reader app, in order to read/review/study pdf files and highlight/make notes. 
I browse through the files in the OneDrive account, using adobe app.  I open the PDF's and highlight whatever I feel like with no problems. However, after closing the pdf, it should automatically update on my OneDrive account all the changes I made. But, if I open that same file through the OneDrive app or on my computer, the changes I made are not there. The files is simply as it was before any change I made. 
 
In the files I marked the PDF I had just edited: in the Adobe app you can see that it is a file from a cloud storage, and that the changes were made a few minutes ago. But, on the OneDrive the file is the same as it was back in December 2022. 
 
So, why is it not syncing?
