Offline editing and cloud sync status

Last updated on Jun 23, 2025

Learn about offline editing and cloud sync status when working with Team Projects in Premiere Pro.

While collaborating on Team Projects, a cloud icon in the Premiere Pro header bar displays your online or offline status. It offers a quick visual representation of your internet connectivity status while working on a collaborative project. If you are disconnected and offline, your changes are locally saved to be synced once the internet connectivity is restored.

If you hover over the cloud icon, you can view a tooltip that displays the last time your locally saved changes were synced or if there are any sync pending.

The cloud icon status shows a green check icon indicating connected status with all local changes saved and synced.

The cloud icon shows a greyed-out cross icon and mouse over on the icon informs that your changes are being saved locally.

When you mouse over the cloud icon based on your connectivity to the Internet, you'll view details such as: 

  • Project saved. Locally saved [Time]. Sync Pending.         
  • Project saved and synced. Last synced [Time].
  • Disconnected. We will save your work until you reconnect. Locally saved [Time].
An indication that shows the Team Projects is saved and synced. It also has details of when it was last saved.
The Cloud icon shows the online status with changes saved and synced a minute ago.

Team Projects includes an offline editing capability so you may continue working even if your Internet connection is temporarily interrupted. During such interruptions, you cannot publish your changes or get the latest updates from other collaborators, but you can continue to work with your edits being saved locally. When you reconnect to the Internet, the Update and Publish buttons reappear. 

Caution:

Working on Team Projects for an extended period when disconnected from the Internet isn't recommended. The offline editing feature is meant to provide safety and security if there are intermittent Internet interruptions only.
