“Adobe Systems does not provide support for networks and removable media.”

Per their statements (see below), it makes zero allowance for local network connections, nor (let alone) connecting across a WAN. The one exception was using their - now long-extinct - VersionCue software.Īdobe's software is engineered for the kinds of latency (or really lack of it) that only direct-attached storage provides. I'm making this a sticky topic because it keeps coming up here in the Apple area of SW and it seems that far too many people are completely unaware of it.Īdobe does not - nor have they ever - supported working on files directly off of a network share, not for Mac or Windows clients.

Update: As reported below by Kevinmcox, Adobe has added some network support for the latest InDesign CC 2015.4 (June 2016) release - please search below for 'Adobe InDesign CC 2015.4 Release | June 2016 'Improved stability while working with network files' - but that is only for files of 100 MB or less (so meaningless for most work by professional designers using InDesign).
