    Does anyone know how i can get back these files?


    I dropped the files into the icloud folder to sync, then it said there was a newer version so I updated icloud & signed back in. All the files that were waiting to be synced in the icloud folder have dissapeared. They are not in the recycle bin & i cant find the file names on the search. Is there any way to recover the files - at no point was i warned they would be deleted.


    does anyone know what happens when you drag and drop to the icloud folder? Are the files deleted from the pc automatically or are they hidden? Any insight would be useful, thanks

    :)

  2. Icloud Drive for windows not syncing files

    On windows 10

    Files (folders, word, excel pdf ect) that are added to icloud drive folder from the Win 10 PC will not upload to apple server or sync to apple devices

    Similarly files added from a mac or apple device do not sync back to Windows 10 PC

    Photos, calendar, reminders all sync normally

    Everything is up to date (windows & Icloud), tried signing in and out of icloud for windows, etc, disabled Norton, all the obvious things are ok

    Called Apple, called Norton, all is good on there end

    Even stranger, after signing out of icloud, deleting files off pc, and signing back in the files from icloud download to the pc just fine populating a up to date file list, but once the files are in the PC are alter or added to they will not sync as described
    above

    Anyone else experiencing this

    Creators upgrade and CodeTwo Sync for iCloud

    My upgrade went smoothly, but Office Outlook 2007 would not open, citing Code Two as the culprit. Code Two is an Outlook add-in that syncs Outlook calendars, contacts etc with iCloud calendars, contacts etc.
    With Code two uninstalled, Outlook works fine, as does iCloud for windows.
    I've tried all suggested fixes on the code two website, but have had no success in getting the calendars to sync.
    Has anyone been able to get them to play together?

    Prevent iCloud Photos Folder Being Auto-Created?

    I have iCloud for Windows v7.0.1.210 on Windows 10 version 1703. I only enabled iCloud Drive and web bookmark sync features. But somehow the iCloud Photos folder is created automatically every time I open the iCloud setting after I deleted it manually, especially annoyingly it got added to my Quick access list inside File Explorer.

    BTW, anyway to remove the iCloud icon from system tray on windows 10?
