Silly Creative Cloud trying to sync files that no longer exist

I’m getting an annoying failed sync error on Creative Cloud (v. 2.1.1.110). It fails to sync 5 files that weren’t supposed to be synced in the first place, since they’re all old files that no longer exist. I mean, I’ve consciously deleted these files from Creative Cloud long ago. They’re not on my Mac. They’re not on Creative Cloud website (not even as archived). The app is trying to sync them anyway — which prompts the error.



I’ve tried deleting the “Creative Cloud Files” folder from my Mac and restoring it from Creative Cloud just to make sure these 5 ghost files weren’t on my Mac. Like I predicted, the app tried to sync 5 files more than I actually have on the cloud during restore. I think that’s proof enough that there the ghost files are on Adobe servers.

    I've got an email from Adobe Support that solved the issue:

    Hi Bruno,

    We pushed an update on Sunday (V 2.1.1.110) that should fix the issue.  If not, please try deleting the db files following these steps:


    1) Quit Creative Cloud Desktop App then the CoreSync and Adobe Desktop Service processes using Activity Monitor (Mac) or Task Manager (Win)

    2) Navigate to:

    MAC: <Mac Hard Drive>/Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CoreSync on Mac OS X

    Note: The Users Library user folder is hidden on starting with 10.7 or later, see http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/access-hidden-user-library-files.html

    WIN: C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\CoreSync on Windows

    Note: The AppData folder is hidden by default this doc shows how to show it if needed, http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/show-hidden-files-folders-extensions.html

    3) Then delete any file that end in .db,.db-shm or db.wal, and re start Creative Cloud (There should be 3 or 4 files, but could be more if you have multiple accounts signing into CreativeCloud)

    4) Restart Creative Cloud Desktop

      Hi Bruno,

      So we can investigate this further please zip up everything is the directory "CoreSync" which is located at the following locations.

      Mac:

      The log file can be found here:

      <Mac Hard Drive>/Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CoreSyncSync

      (where YYYY-MM-DD indicate the date of the last log)

      Note: The Users Library user folder is hidden on starting with 10.7 or later

      see http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/access-hidden-user-library-files.html

      Windows:

      The log file can be found here:

      C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\CoreSync

      (where YYYY-MM-DD indicate the date of the last log)

      Note: The AppData folder is hidden by default this doc shows how to show it if needed

      http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/show-hidden-files-folders-extensions.html


      Please zip them up and send them to SyncForum-Communication@adobe.com with this forum URL in the email.

        Same problems. Creative Cloud wants to synchronise old files who are deleted and not archived...
