      Anyone else have this happen?

      Update your CC apps through the Creative Cloud application. And you now have your old CC apps + new folders, etc for your CC 2014 apps. This means, moving extensions, plugins, GREP — any customization from the former app.

      Hmmmm, it appears that hitting Update All — former CC apps — causes an all-new download. Time to hit the FAQ. This is crazy.

      Here, at the Adobe site >> https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/install-apps.html#Update apps

      “Note: When you update to a CC 2014 version of the app, the previously installed versions of the app are not uninstalled, and all versions of the app are available for use.”

      So I was right. You have to manually reinstall plugins, GREP queries, workspaces, keyboard shortcuts …. you name it. There’s a name for this. :-)

      No, no… is is the first time ever that you DON’T have to manually reinstall workspaces, etc.! One of the great new features in 2014 InDesign is “seamless update,” where it moves all that stuff over. I’m not sure if it does plug-ins, though. That could be dangerous (as they sometimes need more subtle updates).

      But yes, it does live alongside InDesign CC 2013.

      Hi,
      Seamless Update will help you to preserve your workspaces, keyboard shortcuts, etc. basically your preferences.
      But the plug-ins you install are not the part of your preferences hence they will not be migrated by the seamless update.

      I spoke only half-too soon. The shortcuts, prefs + workspaces make it over once you launch 2014 (woo, thar’s a phrase). But plugs, F/C queries are a hassle. Some kind of note before installing would have been nice.
