Hello everyone! I'm in the middle of switching from Windows 10 to iMac. Is there a way to transfer all of my workspace, preferences and presets through the cloud or does it have to be done manually? I mainly use Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign. I appreciate any help.

When you say through the cloud, are you envisaging pushing your local settings and preferences up to the cloud then importing back to your Mac?

Yes, I was hoping to push or send everything to the cloud and redownload onto the Mac. I just have so many settings, it would take me a while to redo everything from scratch using screen shots.
