Yes you could save them you just had to do it yourself to save them on to the server by doing the following. Also this was added years ago which was a nice addon to FFXI every sense that i can load my Macro on my PS2 or any PC i was using at the time. I hope FFXIV would also this some time soon![]()
Now when i return to FFXI i can just reload the macros and i don't have to do any of the macros
The following data can now be backed up on PlayOnline's servers.
-"Config" settings inside the main menu (excluding platform-specific settings such as "key assign", and language-specific items).
-[Current tell target] history for "chat" inside the active command window.
-Macro and book data.
-Map marker data.
-Item display sorting data for the "bid" option in the auction menu.
[Storage Location]
It is now possible to store configuration data on PlayOnline's servers, in addition to your game machine's own hard disk drive. Up to four slots are available on your hard disk for this purpose, while one slot is available on the server. One slot stores one character's worth of configuration data. Selecting a used slot will overwrite existing data.

To save your macro for FFXIV For now too they have there own way you go too.
Documents--> My games--> User you put the user file into a winrar and put it on your USB and then switch the file later when you redownload FFXIV. This is the best way to save everything from UI setup to macros too SE allow us to save macro onto the server it self.
