Importing Data Into StudioCloud

StudioCloud has introduced various free and paid-for methods whereby information from 3rd party software solutions can be imported into StudioCloud. Many clients have taken advantage of both of these methods and have been able to transfer their information from 3rd party software solutions to StudioCloud quickly and easily.

Unfortunately, some StudioCloud clients have experienced problems when transferring their information. Most often the core issue can be traced back to different versions of the same 3rd party software exporting the data differently and causing issues.  Due to StudioCloud being unable to control how the data is exported from 3rd party solutions, these accounts will need further assistance in helping to get the data imported into StudioCloud.

If you have a question about how to import your data into StudioCloud from other 3rd party software then we are happy to help.  However, if you experience a problem during the import process that would require that we look at your exported files in order to resolve it you would need to purchase the paid-for service for importing data because of the time intensive nature of resolving these types of issues.

System Upgrade 12/31/2014

Our team will be performing system maintenance starting 12/31/2014 at 6:00 PM MST.  We expect the maintenance to last 3-4 hours.  During that time the syncing functionality of StudioCloud will be unavailable but you will be able to continue using the StudioCloud software on your computers.

Windows Syncing Issues

A recent security update of Adobe AIR now requires that all communication be done over TLS security. Previously TLS, SSL 2.0, and SSL 3.0 were supported but, due to recent security concerns regarding SSL 2.0 and SSL 3.0, they are no longer supported in Adobe Air. Unfortunately, some windows computers have TLS turned off by default and they are experiencing issues when they try and sync StudioCloud.

Instructions on how to resolve this issue are available in the following support article

Please note, so far this change only seems to affect some users with the Windows operating system.
