CC Libraries panels freezing and unresponsive, slow to upload

[bethanghi]

Hi!

I have been having an issue with my libraries being extremely slow for uploading, viewing, and even scrolling through the panel. I am drawing in Fresco, using Photoshop to label and upload to libraries, then animating in After Effects. My drawing canvas is large (6000x6000px) so I can zoom into the assets when I animate and there are a lot of assets in my libraries, but I've never had a problem in the past.

The past few weeks, I've only been able to upload two or three assets at a time before the library gives me spinning wheels in all the thumbnails and takes about five minutes to freak out before letting me put anything else in the library. At times, all the asset thumbnails are loaded, but it just won't let me drop in an asset. 

In After Effects, the library panel will freeze and I won't be able to click or scroll. Closing and reopening the panel does not work. Restarting the program only lets me upload a few assets before it reloads or freezes again. 

This has made libraries extremely annoying and hard to use as it's slowing down my workflow a ton. I've tried updating apps, downgrading apps, force quitting and restarting the library sync programs, and more things I've found on the forums.

I'm running on a 2021 MacBook Pro with the M1 Max chip on Sonoma 14.7.3. All Adobe apps are updated.

Thanks!

reset the cc desktop app by making sure it's in the foreground, then press:

Win: Ctrl + Alt + R
Mac: Cmd + Opt + R

[bethanghi]

I've trie that. No luck. The libraries also freeze/don't load in the CC app

[bethanghi]

After resetting the CC desktop app, I am now getting a libraries sync error that I hadn't been getting before

[kglad]

a sync error can be caused by a corrupt file that won't sync.  how many files are in your library?

[bethanghi]

This specific library has about 450. 1.17Gb when exported. Not sure how to find how many files are in all of my libaries total. I've been using libraries for years to transfer assets between programs for animation and haven't had issues until the last couple weeks.

[kglad]

can you determine which files were synced when the problem began?

[bethanghi]

The sync error went away after a little bit and all the files loaded normally as far as I can tell. When my libraries freeze in one program, they freeze in all of my programs.

[kglad]

ok, so the problem's resolved?

[bethanghi]

The sync error went away but my libraries are still slow. freezing, and unresponsive for a few minutes at  time

[kglad]

how much trouble would it be to download the files synced when the problem began?

use a browser. there are several tabs and link to check:

Same issue here, it's not you, it's Adobe. An other thread about that : https://community.adobe.com/t5/adobe-collaboration-experiences-bugs/cc-libraries-loading-super-slow/...

[kglad]

before you conclude that, at least, reset your cc app

[bethanghi]

I've reset the CC app multiple times an the problem persists.

I started a new library for the newest assets and it's working mostly fine now. Terrible work around since all my assets aren't in the same spot anymore, but the only way to keep working right now.

Hello, We are about 100 users affected by the problem. I can imagine the issue is not about the 100 laptops. There are a lot of others thread about this bug and we hope it gonna be fixed soon by Adobe.
