Help with Audition- Files not found- Link media

We'll get this bit out of the way first: Rule one of working with cloud-based media - don't. You shouldn't ever save work you're wanting to preserve, only on cloud-based media. At the best of times it's flaky, and if you don't understand the implications it will go wrong. And I'm pretty sure you haven't understood what you've done.

What you appear to have done is saved the session file remotely. Trouble is, that file doesn't contain any of the audio, so just copying it and trying to open it is inevitably not going to find your audio, because it isn't on the machine you are now trying to open the session file on. All the session file contains is information about how the session is laid out, etc - but no audio.

If you want to edit your podcast on a different machine, you don't just need the sesssion file, but the audio files as well - and they will be on the machine they were recorded on originally. What you need to do is put them in a folder that isn't your desktop, and transfer transfer the audio, and the original session file to the machine you want to edit on. You may still need to relink the files, but now you'll be able to locate them, because they'll be in the same folder that the session file is in. You should keep a copy of all of this on your original machine, because that's your safety fall-back for when the cloud's bit of wet string fails.

Whilst we're about it, the other thing you should never do (for the same reason) is attempt to save actual audio remotely to a cloud-based storage 'solution'. Always save it locally, and then transfer the completed files. That way, when it screws up, you can have another go.

Sorry if this seems a little harsh, but I'm afraid that this is the reality of cloud-based working. If you don't understand exactly what is (or just as likely isn't) going on, it's going to bite you!
