Syncing Projects

Syncing Projects Across Multiple Macs

If you want to work on your Elements project across multiple Macs, we recommend using iCloud Drive. It’s built into macOS, fast, and well-integrated with the system, making it the most reliable option for syncing your projects.

While some users have reported success using services like Google Drive, we’ve also seen cases where those services can cause sync issues or corrupt project files due to the way they handle file locking and syncing.

Tips for iCloud Drive

• Make sure iCloud Drive is enabled on both Macs.

• Store your .elements project file inside your iCloud Drive folder.

• Wait for the project to finish syncing before opening it on another machine.

Supported Sync Services

• ✅ iCloud Drive

• ❌ Google Drive

• ❌ Dropbox

Avoid opening the same project on both Macs at the same time. Always allow iCloud to finish syncing before making changes.
