Photoshop CC can't sync settings

I'm logged into the CC desktop app fine. In Photoshop under help, I see that I'm signed in. But under preferences/sync settings, it says I am not signed in and can't sync.
I tried deleting the file in the thread below, signed out and into the desktop app, and signed out and back in in Photoshop. Restarted. Nothing worked.

This setting is fine in Illustrator and InDesign.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

I went into the help menu and signed out of PSCC 2014, and then signed right back into it and it was available for me to save my settings. This worked for me - Hope it works for anyone who finds this post.

Photoshop CC - Can't sync settings between computers

Hi!
I have Photoshop CC both on my desktop computer and on my laptop. Now I want to sync the settings to my laptop. But it doesn't work.
Here is a screendump from my desktop computer:
As you can see I'm logged in to my account. But shouldn't I also be listed as logged in under Settings > Syncronize Settings?
Is there something I have overlooked?
I would be thankful for some support.

Photoshop CC 2014.2.1 can't sync settings with Creative Cloud

Good day,
Photoshop CC 2014.2.1 can't sync settings with Creative Cloud for some reason. I'm signed in, no firewalls, the router is fine. Other apps, Premiere Pro for example, sync without issues.
Photoshop keeps saying "Connecting to Creative Cloud..." with uploads starting, but nothing is happening. I've left it in this state for an hour just in case. Is there a workaround or a fix?

For what it's worth I have access to a second computer with the correct sync settings (which I synced to the Cloud, so the Cloud should now have my desired sync settings), but PS on my first computer still refuses to show anyway to apply these settings.
I'm downloading the 2014 release now but it shouldn't really be necessary. This is so frustrating, especially when the Adobe PS sync help page only applies to the 2014 release (I can't find any sync help for the previous versions anymore).

PS v14.2.1 - Can't sync settings from cloud

I recently had to do a clean install of Windows 7 (x64) and reinstall all of my CC apps. I'm using PS version 14.2.1 which is the same version I was using prior to the Windows install, and for which I had synced many settings). For some reason there's no option to obtain my sync info from the cloud, and I'll be damned if I have to go through the whole process again, as I recently had to do with Illustrator 17.1.0
Does anyone know how I get the settings from the cloud and into Photoshop?
Any help much appreciated.

Can I sync settings with multiple accounts?

I just got Creative Cloud for Teams at work, and I have to sign in to it using my work email address. If I ever leave this job and get CC for myself, or I start at another company, I won't have access to that account any more, nor will I have access to my old work computer. How can I carry over to a new account all my settings from the CC apps that support Sync Settings?

The short answer I received from Adobe was to log in at home using my work account info, open the programs, then log out and back in with my home credentials and save my settings. I was a little worried that would be a violation of some policy, they they assured me it was not, at least in my case. Here's the script:

You are now chatting with 'Rajesh Joshi'
RICHARD VALENTINE: Hi Rajesh.
Rajesh Joshi: Hello. Welcome to Adobe Technical Support.
Rajesh Joshi: How are you doing today?
RICHARD VALENTINE: I'm doing well. Thank you.
Rajesh Joshi: So how may i assist you today?
RICHARD VALENTINE: I utilize Adobe CC at work as a Team Member, and also at home (personal account). Is there any way to sync my workspaces automatically? I know Adobe Premiere CC has an option for this when syncing, but I don't see this option on any other CC product. Thanks!
Rajesh Joshi: So are you looking to Sync the files that you have?
RICHARD VALENTINE: I need to sync my workspaces from work, with my home computer, but they are two different CC accounts.
RICHARD VALENTINE: My work computer is an Adobe Teams account, my home computer is my private adobe CC members account.
Rajesh Joshi: May i know about both the cc accounts?
RICHARD VALENTINE: my work account is registered to [email protected]
RICHARD VALENTINE: My home account is registered to [email protected]
Rajesh Joshi: Ok so you have two different CC account, one is team and one is admin and you want to sync the files between them.
Rajesh Joshi: Is that correct?
RICHARD VALENTINE: Yes.
Rajesh Joshi: Please allow me a moment while I look into your account & verify the details.
RICHARD VALENTINE: Thank you.
Rajesh Joshi: Your welcome
RICHARD VALENTINE: I was thinking I could log in at home with my work ID, and import the settings, then log out and back in with my personal account and save the workspaces and settings, though I wanted to make sure I am not violating any Adobe CC policies by doing that.
Rajesh Joshi: Richard you can use your team account on two machines and its under the adobe policies.
RICHARD VALENTINE: Awesome. Thank you!
Rajesh Joshi: Your welcome, so it seems that you have got the answer for the question that you had.
RICHARD VALENTINE: Yes.. Thank you!
Rajesh Joshi: So anything else i may assist you with?
RICHARD VALENTINE: That's all. Thank you.

I've got the exact same problem and are trying to find out why. I've spent two hours on this now.

Can I sync settings across multiple Adobe ID's?

I have a work Creative Cloud account, and a home Creative Cloud account. Is there a way for the settings I use at home to sync to my computer at work, even though my work computer authorizes the apps via a different Adobe ID? I understand how it works if I sign in via the same Adobe ID on both computers, but currently that is not possible under the "one primary, one backup" Adobe policy. Thoughts?

UPDATE:
It is possible in AE CCbut I can't figure out how to do this in Photoshop CC.

How can I sync settings and programs between 2 user accounts on the same mac?

Hi,
I have created 2 user accounts on my mac, one for personal, and one for work (but both for me). It's primarily for organization, keeping files separate, but also because I have two separate Dropbox accounts and only one can be installed per user. I want to know if there's a way to sync selected programs, files, and settings between the two accounts? Basically, I'd like to have the same programs and settings for both user accounts, and just different files.
I can't seem to find any info on this, but maybe I'm using the wrong terms!
Thanks!

To give other users read-only access to your iTunes library, use the Sharing features of iTunes. Sharing works over the local network as well as on the same computer. See the built-in help for details.
To give others selective access to your iPhoto library, you have the option of using iCloud Photo Sharing, if the privacy implications don't bother you. The images will be stored temporarily on Apple servers.
If you want to give full read/write access to more than one user, see the support articles linked below.
iTunes: How to share music between different accounts on a single computer
iPhoto: Sharing libraries among multiple users
There is a way to share the library without moving it to a secondary volume. If you really need to do that, ask for instructions.

Can't sync settings

Hi
I signed in Creative Cloud but for some reason every time I run Upload Settings for synchronization, the process interrupts after uploading with "Can't connect to Creative Cloud" message. It appears only if I try to sync actions (I have 130Mb actions palette file).
Please advice

Hi Valeriemitchell,
Sync setting has been made avialable in the recent InDesign 9.1 update.You can get the details here.
http://helpx.adobe.com/indesign/release-note/indesign-cc-9-1-0-release-notes.html
What is the version of InDesign it shows when go to Help>> About InDesign (windows) and InDesign>>About InDesign (Mac).
It should be InDesign 9.1 , if it isn't then your InDesign is not up to date.
Visit Help >> Update and have InDesign CC update.

I can't sync my AE settings

I just discovered that I can't sync my AE settings, and found this thread. I did install the 13.0.1 update at the time, and now I'm on 13.0.2. Uninstalling and reinstalling 13.0.2 did not solve the problem. When I hit the Sync Settings Now button absolutely nothing happens, no dialog box or error message of any kind. Any suggestions?

Sync Settings only work within a specific version. What you need to do is to migrate the settings to 13.2 from 13.0. The way that you do that is you delete the entire 13.2 preferences folder before starting After Effects; when After Effects 13.2 starts and sees that there is a 13.0 preferences folder but no 13.2 preferences folder, it will ask you if you want to migrate your settings. Then you can use Sync Settings within After Effects 13.2.

Where is the "Sync Settings Now" button?

I have just upgraded from CS6 to CC, thus new to the Cloud. I was able to create a folder on the Cloud and upload a file to it. On the far right is "Desktop Sync Settings", when I click on it I get another window telling me I need to open my desktop application and click "Sync Settings Now".
I have looked through the desktop application and the only buttons (under Assets) are "Open Folder", "View on Web" and "View Archive". I also checked Photoshop and Illustrator and I'm not seeing it.
Am I looking in the wrong place?
I'm using Win7 64 bit.

THQ_Graphics,
You can get more information about using sync settings in each of the desktop applications here: Creative Cloud Help | Sync application settings with Creative Cloud. In general, though, you can find "Sync Settings Now" option on the menu item for your Adobe ID under the Edit menu.
Hope this helps.

Photoshop CC Sync Settings failed

When I try and sync my application settings, I always get an error message saying 'sync settings failed - can't connect to creative cloud'. However, I am signed in to the creative cloud application manager (sitting in my task bar, saying I am signed in) and there is nothing wrong with my internet connection. Why can't my photoshop sync my settings?

Having the exact same issue, for months now (originally, I had (almost) no problem syncing settings.)
I'm on a 2010-2011 27" iMac running OS X Mavericks, never had a single software/network issue with this machine since the day I bought it. I typically run 2 to 4 Adobe apps simultaneously, in addition to Chrome, Spotify, Mail, and a couple of other apps/utilities sporadically with no performance delays (aside from memory cache needing to be cleared occasionally).
I'm connected to Creative Cloud via the app and signed-in via browser. In the CC app I can see that all my apps are up to date, I can access my files, I can see the synced fonts, etc (however I cannot connect to Behance).
Error messages I encounter:
Photoshop CC: Sync settings failed. Cannot connect to Creative Cloud.
Dreamweaver CC: Sync settings failed. Last Sync: 1/24/14 10:20 AM (not sure how that even connected or why during that time on that day.)
Illustrator CC: Cannot even click the Sync button, it's greyed out. If I click the Share on Behance button I get a pop-up that says, "Sorry, there was an error with your request. Please close this window and try again. Still Having Trouble? Contact Behance Help and reference error: Error fetching access token." If I go to that Behance Help page, there is no help on this topic, nor is there a search or anything to input this "Error fetching access token" reference error.
Indesign CC: Does not allow me to click the Sync button, I get a "bad-circle" like Ø icon.
TypeKit: Not an error message, but this feature is so unbelievably unreliable and inconsistent I dare even call it a "feature." Newly added fonts don't show up for days. Always need to restart Apps before they will show up. Sometimes fonts will just disappear. I love the IDEA of this but I'm so disappointed in the execution...are we PAYING to be beta testers?!
Not being able to sync my settings in the CC isn't the end of the world, but I still want to be able to do it, and I spend what? $50 a month on this, and this is like a CORE feature of the product.
I would sincerely appreciate any help at all fixing this CC syncing issue, I have no idea what to do next.

How can I turn off over the air sync settings on my Mac iPhone

Hi,
For some reason I am attempting to sync my iPhone with my laptop as usual but now in the iTunes app when I attach my iPhone and go to Info, it reads: Your contacts are being synced with your iPhone over the air from MobileMe. Over the air sync settings can be changed on your iPhone. So here is the thing, I have looked online and have found nothing at all to show me how to do this on my iPhone. I want to be able to add info on my iPhone and then connect it with my laptop and sync it immediately with my laptop and also to add info on my laptop and immediately sync it with my iPhone. Please help. Thanks

On your iPhone go to Settings - Mail, Contacts, Calendars. Then select your MobileMe account. Turn off the items you don't want synced over the air.
