How to sync apps and layout ?

[007xico]

Hi,
i have one laptop and htpc running windows 8.1 and can't figure out how the sync works.
Yesterday, i set it all up and and today turned my htpc on to have the same apps and layout. But nothing changed, turned the both pcs on and off and it did change but the other way, htpc to laptop, so got a messy layout.

Deleted all the apps from the start screen and started again but now won't change in neither of them.
Just changed the wallpaper many times and sometimes changes but other times it doesn't.

Any ideas how this works?

First both computers must have the same sign in.
Swipe over to the right and bring up the charms bar
Go down to settings and then to the bottom "change pc settings"
Choose One Drive then sync settings.
