Hey,

When using iCloud drive on Macbook Pro using Finder I will drop a few episodes of a show into a TV folder.

I open up iCloud Drive on my iPhone 5S and I can see the shows, but sometimes when I click download - it never starts or it just takes a really long time for only 98mb file in wifi.

Once the video file has been downloaded, other then going to iCloud drive, where is the video physically stored on my iPhone?

I ask because I notice that the video will take up space on my divide (32gb) and so it's hard to miss when 1GB becomes unavailable.

My finder always shows a dotted cloud, but once that goes away the clock-like upload wheel show on my Finder sidebar. (See attached screen shot)

**It's not a big deal as I use 1TB with GoogleDrive which is probably the best/fasted/user-friendly paid cloud provider available (sorry iCloud)


(Separate issue: Saving Pages/Numbers documents to iCloud never actually loud to iCloud drive/icloud.com)
