Is anyone here using the Silhouette Cloud? If so how is it working for you?

It isnt working for me at all. I can never get both of my computers to sync to the silhouette cloud.

ewwwwww that's not good! I thought I would ask how it is going before I downloaded it. It sounds wonderful if it works. Have you said anything to support about it?

It works great for me. My mom put her account on the cloud and I put mine and we can both access each others purchased designs and user created designs.

I had a rough go at first. Now it is much better. I do have to download my new stuff and then shut down my computer for it to upload to the cloud. Don't care for that. It is nice to know it is in the cloud.

I haven't updated to the software that has it yet - and I think when I do I won't bother with the cloud. I only use 1 laptop so don't see the point (and I back up my library to Dropbox periodically so it's there if something happens to my computer).

I use it and it's working fine. I only use it one one computer, but I have changed to a new computer recently and this was much easier than having to do whatever you had to do before to get your downloads onto a new computer. My only issue is that I have a few shapes that don't seem to live in the cloud - all older ones - and it annoys me that I have two libraries to deal with that.

My mom put her account on the cloud and I put mine and we can both access each others purchased designs and user created designs. How do you do that? Do you have to sign out of your account, and in to hers? Does that mess with your Designer Edition (if you have that). I thought they kept this kind of thing pretty locked down so people can't share...

Edit because I didn't realize I was violating Silhouettes TOS.

I have all of my designs in the cloud and have not had any major problems. I have two laptops and can access all of my designs from either one. The only thing I have found is that I have to completely logout, close the software and get back in in order to see the newly downloaded designs.

So I did that with my mom's details and now both my cloud account and hers are accessible at the same time listed under each email address in the library. I am really amazed you can get that to work! LOL That is totally against their terms of service, and I figured there was no way you could ever do that. Sharing librarys is a big no-no ... so I would keep that one on the down low! LOL

LOL! Gotcha! It's been super useful though, my mom likes to design her own cut files and for some reason they occasionally cut better on my Portrait than her Cameo 3 so she designs and I cut for her.

I want to thank all of you who contributed! I am going to back up my library and then download the software. Wish me luck!
