I locate my CC Illustrator file on DropBox. All of the files it references are also on DropBox. I work exclusively on the Illustrator file on DropBox (I never download it to my computer and work on it). I do this so that my wife can also open this Illustator file (on DropBox) from her computer and work on it - again with all of the referenced files located on DropBox. She never downloads the file to her computer. I just want to be clear about that. : )
PROBLEM:
1) I work on Illustator file on my computer then close it. My wife opens it on her computer. Illustator shows dialog box "Can't find _____.png file" Do you want to Replace, Ignore or Cancel.
So we "reconnect" by hitting "Replace" finding the file on DropBox that my computer always referenced. The Illustator file opens, everything is in its place.
2) My wife makes no changes to the file. tries to "Close" the file and it asks her to "Save As".
QUESTIONS:
1) Why does my wife have to locate reference files when all of the work is done on DropBox and all of the refence file are located on DropBox?
2) Why does she have to "Save As" and replace the main file (located and opened on DropBox) when she has made no changes to the file?
If it helps any, you should know we share the exact same DropBox account (not just a shared folder) which is set up on her computer and on my computer.
