The internet is bleeding hard today due to the well-publicized Amazon S3 outages. Autodesk services are also severely affected.
Collaboration for Revit (C4R) users may be wondering how to get access to their files when the service is down. Your best bet is to find the most recent local copy and possibly use that for the day.
You can find it by going to Windows Explorer and copying this address:
