  1. Select Archives | Sync | Environments > Download and Apply Latest Environment. The Environments dialog box opens. The list shows all environments available to the organization.
  2. Select the environment from the list.

    A window opens in the lower-right corner of the screen to display the progress of the download. You can continue to work during the download. When the download is complete, the message "You may now close this window" appears in the window.
