Synchronize files

Note: You can perform this task only if you have access to the full Version Cue feature set. See Accessing Version Cue features.

If you’ve worked with offline files, you must synchronize your files with the Version Cue Server to save your latest version to the Version Cue Server. You may also want to synchronize if another user has saved a newer version of a file to the Version Cue Server.

Synchronize files

  1. In Acrobat, Flash, Illustrator, InCopy, InDesign, or Photoshop, click Version Cue in the Favorites panel of the Adobe dialog box and select the project, folder, or file you want to synchronize. Do one of the following:

    • To download assets from the Version Cue Server for which you have no corresponding local project files, choose Download from the Tools or Project Tools (Acrobat) menu (if Download is not available, the assets are already synchronized).

    • To both upload and download assets to and from the Version Cue Server, choose Synchronize from the Tools or Project Tools (Acrobat) menu .

  2. If prompted, choose an option in the File Conflict dialog box.

Synchronize files in Bridge

  2. Select a project, folder, or file, and do one of the following:

    • To download assets from the Version Cue Server for which you have no corresponding local project files, choose Tools > Version Cue > Download (if Download is not available, the assets are already synchronized).

    • To both upload and download assets to and from the Version Cue Server, choose Tools > Version Cue > Synchronize (or click the Synchronize button in the toolbar).

  3. If prompted, choose an option in the File Conflict dialog box.

File conflict options

If the master file on the Version Cue Server is newer than your local project file and you’ve made changes to the local project file, a File Conflict dialog box appears with the following options:

Apply The Following Action To All Subsequent Conflicts

Automatically applies the selected option every time there is a file conflict.


Check In

Saves your local project file as a new version to the Version Cue Server.


Skip This File

Prevents the most recent version from the Version Cue Server from being downloaded. (This option also prevents a version of your local project file from being saved to the server.) Choose this option only if you want to keep your edits and disregard the other changes in the master file.
