  • iCloud mobile documents folder deleted

    I am a MAC user, have my MBP PRO synchronized to iCloud entirely.  iCloud is my base repository.

    I managed to delete the file/folder called com-apple-CouldDocs.  Fortunately I've recovered from the Recycle Bin as well as documents are safely on my local drive.  Phew.

    I have consulted library and just hoped things would drag my com-apple-CouldDocs Mobile Documents in the folder, but I can't access this folder as a record of the normal finder.

    If I try to rename the folder Documents Mobile (and then rename my copy of the Mobile Document > com-apple-CouldDoc) then the folder reappears just on finder, OSX recreates it as some file system type essential.

    So I can't copy my com-apple-CouldDoc to ICloud.

    If I have access to iCloud sidebar folder is completely empty

    Any tips?

    Simply drag all the files from my backup copy in the new "empty folder iCloud and and gradually let it resync the 50 GB of data.

    Lesson: Do not access LIBRARY when you have no idea what you are doing!  Stick to the GUI of MAC

    It appears by dragging in the iCloud folder are the best choice.

  • Configuration of backups from iCloud drive: why are there two Mobile Documents files?

    I've recently started using iCloud drive to synchronize documents between my Mac and iOS devices. Now, I want to assure you that I have local backups of these documents.

    I understand that the documents synchronized via iCloud are store locally in my Mobile user home/library/Documents folder. But when I check I made 2 folders: Documents Mobile and Mobile Documents.90391253.  The Documents Mobile folder seems to keep all the records that I created using Pages, drafts and TextEdit.  The second folder has files with obscure names such as ' JFJWWP64QD ~ com ~ goodiware ~ GoodReader. ". Records of Documents that I checked are empty.

    Here is a screenshot of the second folder:

    Why are there two folders of Documents Mobile? When you add a folder to a backup program, I would add two folders or just the folder Documents Mobile?

    The second folder (the one your screenshot) is a backup of an iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch, which was made via iTunes. More information: finding and managing your backups iTunes - Apple Support

  • No iCloud drive merger or double documents folder?

    I have two computers that I had of the SugarSync, sync.  In other words, the documents folder on both computers, through SugarSync, is synchronized and identical.  If I go into system preferences > iCloud and click Options to iCloud drive and turn on the desktop and Documents folders, be it synchronize (or fusion) the dossier of documents on two computers or it will publish two documents separate (and then more and more different) folders?  Thank you, in advance!

    I use iCloud Drive to synchronize the office and the three Macs Documents folder.

    Initially, the synchronization to create a folder for the documents of every Mac as subfolders of Documents and office, named 'old Documents - computer name '. Thus, there are essentially three separate folders of documents of each computer. I have to merge them on mine, if I want to.

    In my case, that doesn't matter much, because I started syncing with almost empty Documents and office on three Macs.  Any document that I add after the initial synchronization is now synchronized with the devices.

    In your case, where the records are already synchronized, you could simply remove a set of Documents on one computer, before you start the synchronization.

    It is probably created by the so-called "Quick License Manager" (developer name "Soraco"), installed by a third-party app, but I can't tell you that one.

  • How can I restore my time capsule documents folder?

    I use an iMac OS X El Capitan and support up to a Time Capsule airport running.

    One of our user accounts on the iMac ran into problems w access to the apple of the user ID (could not access iCloud preferences, etc.) before doing a clean reinstall of the OS X software, so I opted to try to remove the problematic user account (another account has no problems) and then configure a new user account. It seems (the jury is still pending on that) have toured and account is running normally.

    My question now is to restore a subset of the records of the time Machine to the specific user. Is it possible and if yes, can you give me instructions on how to do?

    Thanks in advance.

    Migration wizard does not have the granularity you need. It is simply not possible to choose more great lines.

    So, you'll need to do it via the standard recovery... method that looks like you have never used.

    This is the basic method of use Time Machine, you will need to learn how do.

    TM open via icon in the dock. If this isn't in the dock it from applications.

    All you have to do is open TM...

    Go to the date when the user has always existed.

    Now in the finder as the interface.

    Go to the user that you want to restore... I suggest that you actually just take the folder of any user.

    Sorry I can't take screenshots inside the TM... so if this is not clear look at a standard youtube video, of which there are hundreds.

    It's the old version... but it is clear and well spoken.

    https://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=6bcf54aRBPk

    Restore now all the folder to somewhere else... maybe not even on your hard drive, but on a USB key or a convenient place.

    Once the entire restored user to a location, you can then choose say all the documents in the documents folder and copy it directly to the new user that you created, file documents... same thing for music, even for photos etc... the actual application should always be connected libraries... which will make you within itunes or photos, etc..

    Our great master guru on this stuff is Pondini, who died some time ago... and it is a few obsolete versions... but it is always interesting to read.

    About the use of configuration and migrate...

    http://pondini.org/TM/home.html

    The real using TM

    http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html

    The restoration is Q14-17 and fairly detailed.

    I made an example using method pondini... just iphoto, but gives a good idea how do...

    Cannot access old files on time capsule

    If you want to just retrieve the documents folder say... Then, you can use the same method... Simply select the entire folder.

    The permissions problems arise often... but once the files on your local disk, you can correct them.

  • Move the Mobile Applications folder

    Running iTunes 12 on El Captain on my iMac with a 256 GB SSD and 2 TB HD.  The SSD (my drive home) fills, and I move as much as I can on the HD (data files, that is, no apps) or core files.  I moved my iTunes music library, but I'm struggling to see how I can move the Mobile Applications folder (now up to 10 GB) on.  The question was asked before and answer, although in 2009/10.  The option to hold the SHIFT key when you start iTunes is no longer seems to result in a request for the .itl file.  After you have moved the whole iTunes folder, everything that happened was that a new was created instead of the old - my music was OK but my iOS apps were not found.

    I have no problem if iTunes must keep records of library on the drive home, even if I spend all the rest (media, apps and work) if possible (and relatively simple).  Any ideas?

    You can move all of these applications in a folder, don't talk about mobile applications for guard duty. Even if you redid your iMac, you can create a folder with the Media Kit located in the iTunes folder once you launch iTunes for the first time. You will need to use the function 'add to library' to get the iTunes to recognize these apps. I've never tried "add to library" with the folder of mobile applications that is not located in the Media folder in the iTunes folder. But you can try as a test.

  • After upgrading from Vista created a new documents folder and now ignores the original

    Last week I updated my computer (which I believe has an update of the graphics card and some windows stuff) using Windows update and left while he was closing. I guess what he finished close, but as I was leaving for the weekend, I can't be 100% sure and this weekend my house loses power at least once.

    As for the problem, at windows startup today made first time setup that works normally when you connect to a user account for the first time. Applications of Sidebar by default loading, the default value of the user interface (that I don't use, so it was the first sign), and I found that on the opera opening, all my favorites and settings were gone.

    At the opening of my documents, I found that they were completely empty of content, including all hidden folders where all of my settings the user should be.

    Navigation around the computer, I find that this will C:\Users\USERNAME\ my documents are still intact, but are ignored, with all the shortcuts leading to my documents redirect me to the 'new' documents folder, which means that for all purposes useful all my user settings for all programs that store data in the documents have been reset.

    Maybe someone has an idea of what may have caused this?  Personally, it's one of the strangest bug I've ever seen in any version of windows, and I'm not sure how I should go to deal with it.

    Update:

    To check the path of the 'new' documents folder, it appears as C:\Users\TEMP

    This means at least all of my original documents folder has not been deleted, but I'm trying to support everything up to an external drive where vista decided to replace my old documents folder entirely.

    Hello
