Check out files
•
In Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, InCopy, and Flash, open a file stored in a Version Cue Server project. The file
is checked out automatically when the first edit is made.
• In Explorer or Finder, right-click (Windows) or Control-click (Mac OS) a file, and choose Adobe Drive CS4 >
Check Out. (In Mac OS X Leonard, choose More > Adobe Drive CS4 > Check Out.)
• In Adobe Bridge, select the file in the Version Cue Server project, and then choose Tools > Version Cue > Check
Out, or click the Check Out button
Check in versions
To check in a new version of a file, use the Check In command, which saves your changes to the Version Cue Server
and removes the Checked Out status from the file. In Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, InCopy, and Flash, you can
check in files within the application. In all other applications, use the context menu in Explorer or Finder to check in
versions manually.
When you check in a version, Version Cue transfers and saves only the changes you've made to the file.
Note: You can save versions of nonembedded graphics, image, and text files in InCopy, InDesign, and Illustrator by using
the Edit Original command in the Links panel. After editing the file, save it in its native application. Then, in the Links
panel, select the file and use the Check In Link command to check in a version in the Version Cue project. For more
information, see InCopy Help, InDesign Help, or Illustrator Help.

Check in a version
Do one of the following:
1
•
In Photoshop, Illustrator, Flash, InDesign, or InCopy, choose File > Check In.
• In Adobe Bridge, select the file or files you want to check in and choose Tools > Version Cue > Check In or click
the Check In button .
2 In the Check In dialog box, enter comments that you want to associate with the version, and then click OK.
After you check in a file, editing the file checks it out again, allowing you to save another version. If you close an edited
file without saving, you're prompted to click Save (saves the file but doesn't check it in), Check In (saves and checks in
the file), Don't Save (closes the file without saving the changes), or Cancel (doesn't save or close the file).
Check in a file manually
1 In an Explorer or Finder window, right-click (Windows) or Ctrl-click (Mac OS) the file, and choose Adobe Drive
CS4 > Check In. (In Mac OS X Leonard, choose More > Adobe Drive CS4 > Check In.)
2 In the Check In dialog box, enter comments that you want to associate with the version, and then click OK.
This method is especially useful when using non-Adobe files, such as Microsoft Word files.
