Re: Refreshing iCloud Drive

2020-02-21 Thread Dave Carlson 
Okay, I went back to iCloud settings in the iPhone, and iCloud in System 
Preferences, made sure I had everything checked, and then launched iCloud.com 
 in Safari on the Mac. After I logged in and went through 
all that 6-digit verification code stuff…dah-dah-bang, gah-dah-boom! It’s 
working again. Thanks for pushing me in the right direction.

Re: Refreshing iCloud Drive

2020-02-21 Thread David G. Carlson via iPhone 
Likely you are correct. I need to go back and see if I set up something 
incorrectly. It’s strange that a couple files are updating to fairly recent 
vintage, but most of them are stuck back in the dark ages.

Hmmm.  That is odd.  Like I said, 5 minutes should be the longest you have to 
wait from my experience.  If you go to iCloud.com on the web, are the files 
there as far as you can tell?  Is your Mac set to optimize or to keep 
everything local?

Dave,

Did you just start syncing things in your Documents and Desktop folders, or has 
this supposedly been syncing for quite a while?  If it's brand new, then it may 
take a while for everything to move up to iCloud then be visible to the iPhone. 
 If it's not a brand new thing, I have seen it take a while for the iPhone to 
see updates or changes to files.  Not a real long time, maybe 5 minutes or so.  
The only way I know to refresh things, would be to either turn off iCloud Drive 
on the iPhone, then back out of Settings, wait a minute or two then re-enable 
it.  I don't recommend that approach.  Alternatively, you could close the Files 
app from the app switcher, then upon re-opening it, it would do a poll of the 
existing iCloud Drive data.  Again, this should only be necessary if you've 
been syncing iCloud Drive for a long time and this is just happening lately.  
Finally, of course, there's always the good old restart of the iPhone that 
likes to fix all sorts of unknown issues.

HTH.

Re: Refreshing iCloud Drive

2020-02-21 Thread J. Cyr 
I ran into this issue with the Notes App just  yesterday.  Being very new to 
the Mac I presumed I was missing something or doing it wrong and called Apple 
Accessibility.  After going through everything he knew to do the rep assisting 
me concluded that it was a technical problem, referred it to the correct 
department and arranged a call back with me next week.  Very interesting to 
hear I may not be the only one experiencing   this problem.
