hi all,

Maybe I am missing something here but I can’t see the files I have stored in iCloud Drive on my MacBook Air like I can on iPad and iPhone.
I have everything signed in to the same Apple ID but all of the folders I have created do not show up in the finder.
I can access and edit the files on iPad and iPhone but not on the air, I would like some help on this if possible please.

Thank you.
 
When you enable iCloud Drive on Mac, Finder moves the iCloud Drive, Documents and Desktop folders from the Favorites list to a new iCloud list. If these are not appearing in your Finder Sidebar, go into Finder > Preferences > Sidebar and check the iCloud Drive, Desktop, Documents and they should start appearing.
