A360 Desktop Version Expiration

[kevinwatts]

I am an avid enthusiast of Fusion360 returning my attention to our engineering activities after a few months attending to other business maters. Perhaps I have missed this information update.

Apparently my A360 Desktop version expires August 22, 2017. Please explain the impact and procedures to follow with the migration from A360 to Fusion Team. Impact on Fusion360 and other AutoDesk applications. I have also used A360 (I believe) to render images, and translate components in to various file formats for 3D printing.

Please & thank you.

Workstation Information:

PC computer platform with Window 10

A360 is Version 6.03.1100

There's a different tool in the works to replace the A360 desktop. It's called Desktop Connect. Here's a blog post about it.

Are you using version 9.5 for the current desktop app? Maybe it is just the specific version of the A360 Desktop that you're using?

I believe the below link may be useful to read.

To help clarify, the a360 desktop app, uploads to the A360 Drive, which is different than the free A360 personal hub that comes with Fusion and a Fusion Team (formerly called A360 Team) hub.

My team hubs:

Does that help?

Thanks,

Thank you Nathan for the explanation.

Best regards,

Another wrong move for Autodesk (after poor licensing plan to kill small business), the main reason I was using A360 Desktop was for synchronization on my desktop and the good integration with AutoCAD. Now there's no reason to use A360 drive. DropBox and Google Drive are much better choice in that case.
