How can I easiest migrate my settings when upgrading from CC - CC 2014

Have upgraded several times before (CS5 -> CS6 for example) where settings such as workspace, keyboard shortcuts, actions etc. were easily migrated.
Now, with Creative Cloud, I would assume an even more seamless upgrade. I was a bit disappointed by the whole concept of installing a *new* app ("Photoshop CC 2014", alongside "Photoshop CC"). But even more disappointed when I saw none of my app settings were migrated.
Is this a "feature" or me doing something wrong?
(I would hope the latter, but afraid this is a feature after I talked to a guy on support chat)

There was a lot of discussion on this one. Adobe wrote sync of settings only work between dot releases, see: Photoshop Help | Sync settings using Adobe Creative Cloud
Considerations: Migration and Sync Settings
Sync Settings synchronizes settings between installations of the same major version of Photoshop. For example, settings are synchronized between a Photoshop CC version 15.0 installation and a Photoshop CC version 15.1 installation.
Sync Settings does not synchronize settings across installations of different Photoshop major versions. For example, Photoshop CC version 14.1 settings are not synchronized with an installation of the 2014 release of Photoshop CC (15.0).
Migrate settings from one major version to another
You can migrate presets/settings from one major version of Photoshop to another in one of the following two ways:
When you first launch the newer version of Photoshop, you are prompted to migrate the presets/settings. Choose Yes.
At any point in time, select Edit > Presets > Migrate Presets to migrate settings.
For more information, see Preset migration. 
   Note:
The main preference file is not migrated as part of presets migration.
This was discussed for example by other users in the topic: Syncing settings from CC to CC2014

  • HT5429 How can I set back phone settings to go from a searched location in safari to apple maps rather than google directions?

    How can I set back phone settings to go from a searched location in safari to apple maps rather than google directions?

    Click Here enter destinations, link to page in iWeb or iFrame it by clicking on "Link to Page" from Google map. This may seem ironic but if you are looking for something the best way to find it is by searching Google. For instance Googling "google map directions" will send you to referenced page. for a sub-$20 app I find it hard to believe you find it hard to believe Apple hasn't integrated this feature into the software.
    Hope that helps!

  • Retrieving Missing Sync Settings When Upgrading From an Older Version of Firefox to the latest version.

    I initially set up my Sync account using an add-on for an older version of Firefox and have since upgraded to the latest version. But now my browser acts as if I don't have a sync account set up at all. When I attempt to create a new account, it says that my email address is already being used which tells me that my sync information is still on the the servers. So how do I retrieve my sync settings when settings are missing within my browser?

    I resolved the problem in Snow Leopard by logging out of my (admin) account and logging into my daughter's account on the same machine. She doesn't have admin privileges, so when I tried to install Firefox 4 in her account, I had to authenticate with my admin identity and PW. Installation went smoothly after that. My guess is that you could also simply create a new account on the same machine and install Firefox 4 from that. I have no idea why this works.

  • How can I fix my iSight settings when it works on one account and not the other?

    iSight continually crashes third party applications. I've checked another account on my MBP, and iSight works on different accounts. What settings can I troubleshoot on the account?
    Thank you!

    Although the documentation says you can copy Time Machine backups in the Finder, it's very slow and sometimes doesn't work at all.
    Launch Disk Utility, open the built-in help, and search for the term "Duplicate." Follow the instructions. All existing data on the destination volume will be erased. That shouldn't be a problem, because you don't want to mix backup and non-backup data on the same drive anyway. Turn Time Machine OFF in its preference pane while copying the volume.

  • How can I retain about:config settings when updating firefox?

    Really appreciate all the hard work creating updates but every time I update I lose my about:config settings, especially the browser.tab ones that I rely on. Specifically I use non-default settings on InsertRelatedAfterCurrent and all the warning ones. (I never want to be warned). I also use the Tabs on Bottom plugin which also has to be reinstalled after major updates. I run Firefox on at least 4 separate machines so it is a rather huge headache to have to reconfigure after each update. Is there a way to tell Firefox to update but don't change my settings back to defaults?
    Thanks for a great browser.

    Those settings should not get lost...
    Is it possible you used the Refresh feature? Sometimes after an update installs Firefox displays a message that it is running sluggishly and you can improve performance by restoring some default settings. That runs the Refresh feature, which will default your settings and remove all of your extensions (the ones you installed into Firefox yourself, not ones that were added by other software on your system). The telltale sign is that an Old Firefox Data folder appears on your desktop with your "old" settings folder inside. If you have experienced this repeatedly, there may be several old folders inside. Could that be the explanation?
    You might want to create a backup of your prefs.js file, which stores your modified Firefox preferences, before your next update. You can find that file in your currently active Firefox settings (profile) folder as follows (either):
    * "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Troubleshooting Information
    * (menu bar) Help > Troubleshooting Information
    * type or paste about:support in the address bar and press Enter
    In the first table on the page, click the "Show Folder" button. This should launch a new window listing various files and folders in Windows Explorer.
    Scroll down and make a copy of prefs.js (or it may shows prefs and a file type of JScript) in a safe location such as your documents folder.

  • How can I change the viewer settings when I publish an Aperture gallery to my iCloud Photostream ?.

    I used to rely on MobileMe to share photo galleries with clients and it worked great, but now with the iCloud, I can create a public album on my iCloud - PhotoStream (that does not need an Apple ID to access) but it seems to be limited to just an asymetrical mosaic viewer interface that does not offer any titles or original exposure titles. One,- it looks more like an artsy vacation photo gallery than something a client could easily compare similar photos and Two , there are no identifiers that the client could use to relate his or her photo choice. It would also be helpful to add notes which I beleive is only possible on a non-public album. I would appreciate any tips,  thank you

    Don't know about Aperture, but...
    If you're adding the photos from iPhoto on your Mac put the photos in an album and arrange them in the order you want. Use the Photos ➙ Batch Change ➙ Set: Date menu option to give all of the photos the same date but with a 1 minute interval.
    Add them to the Photo Stream and they should remain in the order you want.

  • How can I download Firefox 4.o to upgrade from Firefox 3.6.16, if after following all instructions the 2-minute download process is completed, but the download window is empty, and Version 4.0 is not installed?

    A pop-up box in the lower right corner of the screen says the download is complete. But a search of the entire hard drive does not locate the files. I've tried restarting Firefox, restarting Windows---and even shutting down and restarting the computer---after each attempt at downloading, with no different results. I've also tried disabling other programs like V-Tuner and Eudora before downloading. I have no trouble downloading other files, including my original installation of Firefox plus the upgrades. My current version of Firefox (3.6.16) is still working just fine; I tried to upgrade only because 4.0 was announced on-screen today, and I thought I might as well have the latest thing. My operating system is Windows 2000, which I see listed as compatible.

    Check that you do not run Firefox as Administrator.
    Right-click the Firefox desktop shortcut and choose "Properties".
    In the Compatibility tab, make sure that Privilege Level: "Run this program as Administrator" is not selected.
    You also need to check the Properties of the firefox.exe program in the Firefox program directory.

  • When I receive and answer e-mail, the correspondence is usually "nested" with the original message, and the number of replies, etc. are indicated with a number next to the original message.  How can I change the mail settings so that every reply is listed

    When I receive and answer e-mail, the correspondence is usually "nested" "behind"  the original message, and the number of replies, etc. are indicated with a number next to the original message in the inbox.  How can I change the mail settings so that every reply is listed individually in the inbox instead of having them "stacked" behind the original message.  I'm afraid I might accidentially overlook messages the way they are handled now.

    Somebody here will correct me if I'm wrong, but what you have to do is go into Settings, Mail/Contacts/Calendars and under Mail, turn off "Organize by Thread".  I think that will make each message show individually.

  • How can I delete my Icloud account when I don't know the password and no longer have the email address associated with it?

    How can I delete my Icloud account when I don't know the password and no longer have the email address associated with it?
    You need your password to delete it and I need the email address to reset the password.  I feel like I'm going in circles!!!  Please help!!!

    Go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address (you shouldn't need to verify the old account).  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • When I am connected to my home wifi, it says I am connected but the 4G icon doesn't go away.  How can I make that go away when I am connected?

    When I am connected to my home wifi, it says I am connected but the 4G icon doesn't go away.  How can I make that go away when I am connected?

    When I'm at my home, and on my Wifi, my 4G icon on my LG G2 is still present. No big deal. If the bits can flow via WiFi, that's what they'll do.
    You might try (if you really MUST shut off the cellular radio):
    Settings, Network Connections and More networks. Select Mobile Networks and uncheck Mobile data and data roaming.
    Not sure if that will work - but give it a try.
