iCloud Drive Nightmare

[I WAS the one]

Ok. I need to get rid of my iCloud files to make room for a basic backup. So, I am deleting files from my iCloud account and sending some of them to my Google Drive and so on but suddenly I can't find some files that are showing up in my storage manager that I really need to send to Google Drive or My iMac. How can I get those files that don't show up in your iCloud but shows up in your iCloud Storage Manager???!

That's (for example) is a comic I made with Procreate and put together with Strip Designer App. I need those files (the ones that says 'comic') but there aren't on any iCloud drive on any devices or my Macs!!!!

How I get to them? Any ideas?

Hi,

Log out of iCloud on every device. Then log back in again.

This might restore your documents.

your files.

iCloud is a typical current Apple Service.

Rather substandard. But Apple may improve it in the coming years. The good news is while waiting for Apple to get serious and fix it, there's lots of excellent alternative choices.

Google Drive
Dropbox
OneDrive
and others
