Question

Synchronizing Dreamweaver settings between two PCs does not work at all

I installed Dreamweaver CC (latest version) on my PC and configured it, including several sites. I activated the synchronizing feature for all settings.

 

Then I installed it on my laptop and although I was asked whether I want to download my settings from the cloud (which I confirmed) no settings arrived.

 

Also when I click the synchronize button or menu, it only says "Synchronized <date/time>" and nothing happens.

 

I already read the documentation and I think I did everything correctly.

 

Is there a bug in the latest version?

    1. Restart your computer.

    2. Open DW.

    3. Go to Preferences > Sync Settings.

    4. Tick the box to import Sync Settings from the cloud.

    5. Hit Apply Updates button.

    6. Restart DW.

    Thanks, I will try that. But in my settings I only see "import from previous version of Dreamweaver". Do you mean that checkbox?

    I'm on version 20.1.  See screenshot from Edit > Preferences > Sync Settings.
