• Live Version: 11.2.5 and later

• Operating System: All

The average time for Note Sets to upload to Ableton Live from Cloud depends on the size of the .abl file and your internet speed and may take from a few seconds to several minutes. 

If you have a stable internet connection and Cloud sync times are longer than expected, follow this guide: Note Sets in Ableton Cloud not Appearing in Live.

Note: Ensure that the Note Set is fully uploaded before opening. Otherwise, the following error message will appear:
