Unable to locate my files in the new Adobe Express mobile app. |
Try these workarounds if you're unable to locate your files: Initiate file migration in the updated mobile app Ensure you have triggered file migration, which is available after updating your mobile app. Your files are migrated at your command, so you can choose the right time to move them—for example, if you have work you want to wrap up before moving everything over. After initiating file migration, select Your stuff at the bottom menu of Home to see your folders and files. Search both file organizers on desktop If you still have difficulty finding your files after initiating file migration, we recommend using a desktop web browser to check both locations for your files:

The existing audio playback issue may impact the initial playback. Try the audio playback again. The videos will export with audio as expected. |
|
