Hi Illustrator Team,

I've updated to the latest version 25 AI 2021. I'm stilling getting popup that says 'this file has been modified outside illustrator. do you want to continue?'

Please help!

Thanks.

I didn't have this issue until I updated to Catalina in order to start using CC 2021. Now it happens pretty much every time I save. Thanks.

Saving to MyCloud PR2100. This is very nerving!

It's lame that this is still an issue. No respect.

This needs to be handled. I recently moved all my files to OneDrive so I could work with my entire team... not just designers. Many organizations use OneDrive. We're not a creative agency so seeing these messages is not going to force us to "give in" and use Creative Cloud storage. It's not the same thing. So please fix this. Put in an exception for OneDrive so we can save our files without this message. It's really really poor form to allow this to be a pain point for your paying customers for so long.

Fix it.

Yes, this still seems to be an issue for folders that are backed up to a web service (Google File Stream here.) I don't see it for files that are saved elsewhere.

Still there, connected to OneDrive. Common Adobe, it's just a checkbox.

When is the class action law suit coming out? Can I pre-order?

I cant believe that such a huge company cant fix this, I cannot use Adobe Illustrator because of this annoying message.

Same here with OneDrive, very annoying

Still getting this error. Google File stream. Mac Catalina.

Well I'm running Illustrator V 24.3 and Im still getting the prompt.

"This file has been modified outside of illustrator. do you want to continue?"

Been happening for Months, every time I save to OneDrive!
Please just implement a button to turn off this alert! IT's DRIVING ME CRAZY!!!!

Same here. Started happening after I upgrade to Mojave.

Same problem. Just updated to 24.2.3 and then it started happening. Running Catalina which I think was a mistake to update to. Not using OneDrive. Seems like every week there is an Adobe update. Illustrator crashing way more than it ever has. Disappointed in Adobe.

Also happening on MacBook Pro 2019. Illustrator 24.2.3. Catalina 10.15.6. OneDrive. Agree with Anonymous of May 6 - should at least have an option to option decide if you want Illustrator to ask you about it or not. Come on Adobe, please sort this out.

Solution on my Mac-System: I was working on the file which was on Google Clouds Stream. Now i saved the .ai on my local drive. Now, when I'm saving the file I don't get this notification anymore...

+1 from me for this problem.

But it's a new problem I've never seen before.

I've only just started seeing it after upgrading to a new Mac. My OS is completely up-to-date (Catalina 10.15.6 and I'm running the latest Illustrator CC 24.2.1.

The only thing that has changed from my old system where I wasn't seeing this is that I'm using Google's GSuite Google File stream app.

I used to use their Backup and Sync app but decided to switch during my upgrade because I was so tired of Backup & Sync crashing all the time.

Judging by the fact that most people on this thread seem to be experiencing problems with OneDrive, I suspect there's something about the way the OS handles the sync with the file servers that's causing this problem.

I have this same problem saving to OneDrive. Currently running Illustrator 24.2.1.

It's still here with OneDrive – every time I save. No other software does this
