Update to Content Finder Functionality

In order to address ongoing performance issues with our AEM Author application, a change has been made to the functionality of the Content Finder. Using the default "Image" tab, results will be scoped to the DAM folder of the site in which the author is currently working. To access an image outside of the page's parent site, authors can use the "Browse" tab, located in the top right-hand corner of the Content Finder. See AEM Interface Tour for more information on using the Content Finder.

On December 19, 2014, the Content Management System CQ5 was upgraded to the latest version, Adobe Experience Manager 6, or AEM6 for short. With AEM, users can now experience single sign-on across a variety of SFU applications. AEM can also be used with a variety of modern browsers. The upgrade to AEM6 allows the CMS team to migrate to a more robust database architecture. Over the coming months, you can expect an improved authoring experience with AEM6.
