I have a CC account.  I just took a premiere advance course and during the course i was required to use the student settings.  I like what I set up for my keyboard, etc, now I want to transfer these new settings to my CC account... BUT, I can only log into the student account from the classroom... how do I transfer those settings from that student account to my CC account w/o have to sign into the student account every time I want to use my new settings.??  Another words, I want my CC account to use these new settings without having to sign in to the student account.

    In the Sync Settings there is an option to use Settings from different account.

    Download from Student and upload to CC.

    I have a CC account but need to delete it and make a new one (I get  some kind of discount, but I need to create a new account to get it). What happends to all my saved settings, Actions (photoshop), workspaces and all that? I just want everything to be as I have it now. Do I need to download something and if then what and how? I really need help and my deadline is tuesday the monday the 20th.

    Hi Denmark, sorry we may have missed your deadline! I'll share the steps to manually move customizations in case they might still be helpful to you or someone else who comes across this thread.

     

    Premiere saves workspaces and customizations to the Profile folder. On a Mac, open your Finder, go to Documents > Adobe > Premiere Pro > find the correct version number. Inside the folder for the version number (mine says "25.0") you will see a folder called "Profile-yourname."

    I don't have a PC to test the workflow on, but I believe the file path is the same. Open your Explorer > Documents > Adobe > Premiere Pro > version number > "Profile-yourname."

     

    If you copy that Profile folder to a different version of Premiere Pro, it should take your workspaces with it. You can also step into the "Profile-yourname" folder to find the "Layouts" folder to pull specific workspaces to the newer version. It should be as simple as a copy/paste.

     

    I'm not sure about Actions in Photoshop, you may need to create a post on the Photoshop Board to get that answered.

     

    I hope this helps!
