Hello!

I am going from my Windows workplace to Mac. And I want to use my Windows keyboard shortcuts on there, but I can't find a way to convert CTRL to CMD and ALT to OPTION. Is there a way to import my Windows keyboard shortcuts to Mac and do that automatically, or is there a third-party app that could do that? It would be such a headache to make every keyboard shortcut (hundreds of combinations) manually.

Thanks for the replies!

Go to Preferences>Sync Settings. You can sync your keyboard shortcuts to the Creative cloud and sync back down from there on your other machine. I don't have a windows machine to test it on at the moment, but it may well automatically do the conversion.

Just double checked the documentation:

"Keyboard shortcuts created for Windows only sync with a Windows computer. Mac OS keyboard shortcuts only sync with a Mac OS computer."
