Getting to Know the Work Area - Adobe Illustrator CC - page 41

The new Sync Settings feature enables individual users to sync their
preferences, presets, and libraries to the Adobe Creative Cloud. This means
that if you use two machines, say one at home and the other at work, the Sync
Settings feature makes it easy for you to keep those settings synchronized
across two machines. Also, if you have replaced your old machine with a new
one and have re-installed Illustrator, this friendly feature will let you bring
back all those settings you took so much time to set up.
The syncing happens via your Adobe Creative Cloud account. All the settings
are uploaded to your Creative Cloud account and then are downloaded and
applied on the other machine.
You need to initiate the sync manually; it does not happen automatically and it
cannot be scheduled. For more information on syncing, see the “ Sync settings
using Adobe Creative Cloud ” section on page 6 in the “ Getting Started ”
section.
