Hi there,

 

I use Adobe on 2 devices, my iMac and my MacBook. I also use the cloud storage on my iMac. but I do not wish to access these files on my Mac , at the moment the cloud storage is filling up memory on my MacBook is there a way to disable the storage only on my MacBook?

I had a similar problem and was quite angry because one of my Macs has little SSD space. I solved it as follows: plugged in an USB stick, changed the cloud storage folder in the settings pointing to the stick and let the cloud move everything over. After completion I renamed the stick in the finder. Now the stupid cloud service can't find the folder anymore, and I deleted it. Et Voila, All data stays in the cloud and I can't accidentally turn sync mode back on.
