Assets Market files gone

[Massive Lines]

Under the Assets > Market, there are a ton of items that use to be available that are now gone.

Example, if you do a search for iPhone and change the filter from All Categories to For Placement it says "Your search "iPhone" did not return any assets". The ones that I have downloaded before are still available under my Downloaded filter.

I just updated Creative Cloud and the Market Assets panel has entirely disappeared. Previously downloaded assets are still downloaded.

I got on Adobe support chat and the person said they'd help, but then never replied.

I use the assets regularly and am frustrated.

[abigailment]

Same. I thought there was something wrong with my CC desktop app, but Support confirmed Market is gone. But they didn't answer why they removed it. Support person said he/she was going to transfer me but, I got tired of waiting and ended our chat.

I pay a good subscription and they remove one of CC's defining features/perks. So sad.

Hi

Have anybody got an answer from Adobe?

[factoriaediciones · Accepted solution]

Hi

Support confirmed me today, Market is nor more avaible. Adobe has decided to eliminate this service without notifying of the change in the conditions of the license.

Everything that was in Market is now in Adobe Stock. Look for it there.

If this is correct then they are taking something that was included in our subscription and putting it behind another paywall.

[Abambo]

Some items are free on Adobe stock.

[abigailment]

Abambo Is there a way to know which ones are free? Can't seem to see it in the filters. So far, any icon I can possibly get needs me to buy the license first and like I said, beyond that I can't personally make any purchases because of my region.

[Abambo]

I used the Illustrator (or Indesign) "New document" command to get a selection of free items. They can't however be searched on the stock site:

Thank you, but do all the asset  who was there before the change are still free? And how can I be sure?

All the assets I did download can be found on stock for free, so I assume all the rest is also for free, but I did not check ​every​ asset.

[abigailment]

It's true. Market is now integrated in Adobe Stock.

This is sad because Stock isn't available in my region, I have to contact my authorized reseller just to get license for assets I used to get with no hassle from Market. Also, Adobe should have notified its subscribers about the changes. To my knowledge, I never received anything, not sure about the others.

It's a step backwards in my subscription and inconvenient for many users.

I spoke with Adobe support yesterday, after 4 hours  that they tried to find out where disappeared my assets panel, they told me that this option did't exist anymore, I was very surprised!

[owghh]

Adobe is trying hard to get its customer to use other software. And Affinity Designer, Photo, Publisher is really worth a look, to my humble opinion.

Following what Abambo found, I downloaded a free template from within Illustrator, then searched Adobe Stock for the file name and author, and yep — it's there, and free.

It seems you can't filter by free, but if you know the author's name from previous graphics, you can search by that and find all their free sets.

Edit: The only two I've found so far are Creativedash and Owen Jones.

Yes, yo have to know their names: here other

I managed to get through to support and they said it is now only accessible through the Photoshop Sketch mobile app ... very inconvenient but I guess it is a money making scheme to make us buy stock!

It's probably a money saving scheme not to have to maintain 2 platforms...

[Layout Y]

I've tried the Sketch app and couldn´t find the Market. The option is gone on the app I'm using.

Ugh. We can't even filter for vector graphics in Adobe Stock.

Yes you can...

[Alek_V]

Weird. I swear that choice wasn't available the last time I looked. Well, that's good!

[Abambo]

Happens also to me.
