Hi Everybody,
Our Engineering team recently implemented a fix for syncing issues that may have been responsible for Adobe apps crashing when online-only files are opened. This fix should apply automatically, and if not, it will apply when you restart Dropbox.
Please try it again and let me know if the problem persists. I'll pass on that information to our Engineering team. Thanks!

Community ManagerHi Everybody,
Thanks so much for reporting this. I've informed our engineering team, who is currently investigating. I'll provide an update here when I have more information!

Ben, we are having the exact same issue as everyone else. It all started on June 26th after the Dropbox Update and a team of 25 marketing/designers can't produce work. This is creating an compounding problem. You need to update your first-level support team that you are aware of this issue and what steps we can do to resolve it. Even if interim solutions. I've seen some comments here. But if trying to use online-only files, they crash as soon as we open. The right-click options go away, and then our computers freeze. We've resorted to countless hours lost in production and sitting on IT calls within our company trying to solve this issue. We need a fix ASAP. Original posters and fellow commenters are all having the same issues as us. Happy to jump on a call and screen share.
