Adobe Creative Cloud subscription account lets you activate Dreamweaver on two machines. A subscription account is basically the Adobe ID
account using which you purchased the subscription. Synchronization with the cloud is tightly tied with your subscription account.

The cloud sync feature helps you keep the following Dreamweaver settings synchronized between the two machines:

Application Preferences:

General: All preferences except Enable Related Files, and Discover Dynamically-Related Files.

Code Coloring: All preferences except Document Type.

Code Format: All preferences except tag libraries.

Code Hints: All preferences except changes done using the link Tag Library Editor.

Code Rewriting: All preferences

Copy/Paste: All preferences

CSS Styles: All preferences

File Compare: This setting is synchronized only between computers running on the same operating system.

File Types/Editors: Only Reload Modified Files and Save On Launch.

Highlighting: All preferences

New Document: All preferences except Default Document Type (DTD) and Default Encoding.

Preview In Browser: Only Preview Using Temporary File is synchronized.

Site: All preferences except Always Show On the .

W3C validator: All preferences except changes made using ‘Manage’.

Window Sizes: All preferences.

Note: Except File Compare, all the other Preferences listed above are synchronized between computers irrespective of the operating system they
are running on. For example, Mac to Windows.

Site settings: All site settings (except username and password) are synchronized between computers running on the same operating
system. username and password cannot be synchronized.

The path and name of the local site folder is synchronized if a folder with the same name exists in the same path.

If a site does not exist on a machine, Dreamweaver creates a new site folder in the default location and all the paths are relative to this
folder. You can change this path at any point in time. For all subsequent synchronizations, only the changes in the site folder are
synchronized.

(13.1) Keyboard shortcuts: The keyboard shortcuts are synchronized only between computers running on the same operating system.

(13.1) Workspaces: Workspaces are saved when you quit Dreamweaver and are then synchronized with the cloud. If you want to
synchronize Workspace changes without exiting Dreamweaver (in the current session), click Save Current in the Workspace menu and then
manually synchronize the settings (Preferences > Sync Settings).

Workspaces are synchronized only between computers running on the same operating system.

You can choose not to synchronize a specific setting, for example, Preferences. Deselect the required check box in the Preferences (Sync

Settings) dialog box.

Synchronization with Creative Cloud is not supported in the following scenarios:

You have a volume license and are signed in as an anonymous user.

Your machine is configured to connect to the Internet through a proxy server.
