ICloud or player?

My LT crashed a few months ago and I always try to find files.  I got ICloud backup on my Iphone6s & PC, but my new LT has 10 windows and it uses a disc.  I was wondering if I can ever get back what's on ICloud?  I need to download iCloud for my new LT? I don't know if we need to use a reader or get the download to ICloud.

Confused in the clouds...

iCloud backup only covers iOS (iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch) devices. These devices can save on a computer using iTunes and/or they can save on iCloud. The only thing you can do with a backup of an iOS device to iCloud is to use to restore or implement an iOS device.

It is not possible to back up a computer (Mac or Windows PC) to iCloud. However, it is possible to synchronize data of computers in iCloud and save files to iCloud by car. You can use any computer to connect to https://www.icloud.com/ to see and retrieve the data you have stored in iCloud (except for the iOS device backups that are stored in iCloud but not visible since iCloud.com).

For backups of iOS and to synchronize data like Contacts, iCloud would be the standard choice. For other things - it depends on a number of factors, including your goals. For example, if you use Microsoft Office on your Windows PC and your iOS device, you find that it is easier to use a reader. If you subscribe to Office 365, which includes 1 TB of storage on a disk, so it can be a good choice financially.

  • iCloud Windows Player 10 does not synchronize

    I installed iCloud for Windows on two machines Windows 10. iCloud Drive seems to work for small files or records that are placed in it. iCloud drive on both machines have been synchronized. Then I copy a folder with several subfolders and files in an iCloud drive. The container main folder about 30 GB of data and I know I have enough space iCloud (43GB). But the synchronization completed once a file and a subfolder was copied to the second machine. I waited a few days for the synchronization to proceed, but no activity seems to have occurred. I restarted. But the timing has not changed. How can I force synchronization to occur.

    Yes. Everything stored in iCloud Drive is synchronized on the hard drive of your computer.

  • Are the contents of iCloud drive saved by Time Machine, or can they be by another application?

    Applications like CarbonCopyCloner or SuperDuper cloning can copy/clone the content of hard drives; I don't think they can save things in the cloud. And, although I don't use time machine, I don't think it can be. Here are a few articles from Apple on icloud-storage and backup:

  • Remove iCloud locally cached document reader

    Hello.

    I want to remove some documents offline cached locally to my iCloud drive app iPhone, without deleting icloud. How can I do?

    Thank you.

    Sorry, but you can't. If you delete the local copy of iCloud drive it will automatically remove the copy to iCloud and also delete any copy on any other device connected to the same iCloud account player. iCloud Drive is a synchronization service, not a cloud storage service only. If you need storage cloud only, you can consider cloud 3rd party options. You can also suggest that Apple offers more options via http://www.apple.com/feedback/icloud.html

  • synchronization of player iCloud is frosty

    Hello

    I recently upgraded to Mac OS Sierra and started to benefit from the new office + Documents synchronize with iCloud drive.

    Unfortunately, I encountered a problem and cannot find a solution by myself.

    Sierra said that load files to iCloud, but loading is the gel at the end. Nothing is more responsible.

    For this reason, when I add another file in my "Documents" folder, it will not be loaded because the previous files are always "loading".

    I opened Safari and tried to download files directly, it worked. And I saw on my Mac that these files were downloading (from iCloud on my Mac).

    Therefore, it seems that only the loading process is buggy, but it's very annoying. I can't use the Finder effectively and need to download files via a web browser, which is not practical at all.

    • I turned off my Wifi, but the same question remained on.
    • I restarted my computer, and the question remained.
    • I've updated all applications, as mentioned in the support article related to potential problems of iCloud.

    Do you have any other suggestion. Thank you very much for your help!

    Try to go into System Preferences/iCloud and stop synchronization. Wait a few minutes, then recheck the timing.

  • Can I have more than one player iCloud folder in my finder? One account for work and one for personal use.

    I want to synchronize my work to my home mac mac but don't want my work and personal files of mixture in the same iCloud drive.

Is there a way to have the disc records hard icloud of two different accounts on the same mac under the same profile?

    ICloud there than one disc for each Apple ID. You can, however, create more than an Apple ID, but that creates other issues as demanding that you trade ins iCloud to access the content of the newspaper reader.

    You can create subfolders in your drive to iCloud for work and personal use. You can also purchase a subscription to more storage if you need.

    No solution to this question. Each has its compromise.

    Could you use, say, iCloud for your personal files, but use Dropbox for those work-related?

  • Cannot save or open player iCloud. Have a mysterious unknown data.

    Hello.

    I recently have a problem with my iCloud drive. Yesterday, I can't save my iCloud iOS devices (iPhone 6 and mini iPad 3 with iOS 9.3.1).) So I go to the menu "settings > iCloud > backup" turn it off and I turn it back on but it keep showing popup "iCloud backup failed".

    I open iCloud app on my PC and I 49.7 GB of available space on my drive to iCloud. I go to the menu of storage management, and it is to show that I only have 41.6 GB of available space (same display on my iPhone). My iCloud drive data 201.6 MB of backups, 5.1 MB of messages and unknown Documents and data that I can't view, delete or do something.

    Then I switch to iCloud.com. In iCloud settings I 49.8 GB of free space, and Yes, I still can't open my iCloud even drive in iCloud.com. I'm so frustrated right now.

    I think the unknown data on my iCloud drive are my photos. I created folders in iCloud drive and maybe download 7 GB of my photos in to this topic a few months ago (manual upload not sync), now all of these photos are missing from my iCloud drive and it seems to be the causes of this problem. Well, any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • iCloud Mess

    HI -.

    I could not see the content of my player iCloud on my iPad, so I pulled out and tried to sign in.  I've entered my apple ID and password, but after saying "check" for some time, it me invited to enter a password of 6 characters, but refused BOTH the verification code, he sent me earlier and my password.  So I can not re-login to iCloud for my iPad.

    To connect HERE on this forum, I had to have the system send me a NEW code verification and authentication.  SO I thought maybe we could work on the iPad, but it doesn't.  And there is no place on the iPad password prompt to send a new code.

    Anyone know what I'm doing wrong or not done?

    Thank you.

  • ICloud pushes everything in my iPhone?

    Since iOS 10 update, my iPhone has constantly fills up zero space on the left, and I think that it is related to iCloud.

    I went through and deleted (and deleted from the deleted items cache) videos and photos that I didn't need to free up space on my iPhone (3-5gigs value). This solves the space for a short period, then iPhone fills somehow upward. I delete apps more like Mobile Garage Band (~ 1gig), remote logic (~ 1gig), iWork Apps (Mobile), freeing up large amounts of space, but still, it is only temporary.

    I store files on iCloud (a lot of 3D elements, so that they are big enough) and the only thing I can think is that the files are pushed on my device. Or an app or the iOS is something wrong with leaking memory, filling all of the remaining space. I even deleted the player to iCloud application and everything that is not essential at this stage, but it keeps falling to zero amount of space, also make the device run slowly. At this point, I can not download an update if there is a problem with iOS 10.

    Is this plausible what happens?

    Are you referring to your space on your iPhone itself or space on iCloud?  Both are very different from each other.

    Go to settings > general > storage & use iCloud > the next screen, you will be able to tell how much storage iCloud you left, and also how much storage, your iPhone has left.  The latter, you can enter this menu and see what specific applications take the place.

  • iCloud Drive not sync on iOS 10

    Hello

    As I moved to Sierra and iOS 10, my iCloud reader app on my iPhone is not in harmony with what is on my Mac. All my documents are missing. They are on my Mac, on iCloud.com, but will not be displayed in the app iCloud on my iPhone that doesn't show a record of 'Numbers' by default.

    Am I missing something to get all my devices synced?

    Thank you

    Theophanes of greetings,

    Thanks for your post today in Apple Support communities. I see that documents which are synchronized on iCloud computer of Sierra of macOS are not sync on your iPhone. I know it's a great feature to have all your synchronized documents. I'll be more than happy to help.

    Because documents are correctly synchronized from the Mac to iCloud.com, allows to get their sync correctly to the iPhone. Lets go to settings > iCloud > the iCloud player on and off. Once it is off, exit the settings. Then lets turn it back on. It might take a few moments to all turn on again and start the synchronization.

    Check if the documents are appearing. If this is not the case, let know us and we will be happy to help you further.

    See you soon.

  • How to save the document iWork on iCloud drive?

    I have 4 files in my player to iCloud.  When I create a new document in Pages and save it in the folder of chemistry, I noticed that the Pages also saves a copy in the Pages folder.  So I find myself with two copies of the document.  The same thing happens with Numbers and Keynote.

    Is there a way to save the Pages (and Numbers and Keynote) documents to an iCloud specified by the user folder without copy also end up in the related app?  THX

    When you save Pages documents in iCloud drive, but not in the Pages folder, it will create an alias in the Pages folder pointing to the active page document that you saved in your folder of chemistry. These aliases will be a small vertical arrow under the icon, accompanied by text stating "in iCloud drive." You can right-click on the alias and choose the menu option Show Original.

    The cure is to make your records custom inside the respective iCloud drive: Pages, Numbers and Keynote primary records. These applications have an abbreviation save default Panel. On the right of the Save As the Committee Save: field, you will see a small box with an angle down in it. Click on this button, it will expand your panel Save/Save as and a button new folder will appear on the bottom.

    You select iCloud drive from the Favorites panel column Pages save and then browse the Pages main, numbers, and Keynote files. This is where you click on the button new folder, which will initially show no icons it contains until you save the document. No alias is generated. For existing records outside the above-mentioned applications, you could drag and drop the folder in the respective Pages, numbers and Keynote primary records, and then you can delete the (single) alias files.
