I downloaded fusion and activated as personal user. The trial started for 30 days,during which i made mady projects. Today it ended. I started another,new project,saved the f3d file and exited. Doubpe clicked it to start it and the main page popped up,i could only find it from the 0pen option as save file. And the prompt says after some days my projects will be lost and i won t be able to create or edit them. Any ideas?

Have you closed Fusion, restarted your computer and tried again?

Just tried it. I then double clicked the f3d file i had exported earlier (at 12:05), the main page appeared(not from the project) and among the saves was that file from 11:26...am i doing something wrong? I use the program for personal use,my hobby,not commersial,and i cannot buy the licences from the plan page... I worked rally hard to make what i managed during those 30 days to lose it now...

I cannot tell, from your wording, if you found and could open your model.  If you could not, then try going to this web page, log in with your Autodesk ID and password and see if you can find it.  If so you can download it to your local drive.

 

Also, check in the upper left hand corner of the Fusion app and see it it show that you are on a Personal License now.

Yes, before closing your model or 2D Drawing, you must save it to the Cloud.  The attached video talks about the Cloud structure and as you can see is accessed from the Data Panel.  Once saved, you return to the Data Panel and open the model or 2D Drawing from there.  You can Export it but that is not the normal way of working.

Correct!  Do you need a video on the full process of creating a model and saving it to the Cloud and then opening it up to edit?
