Q: Cloud data restore on a PC
Alright you Apple geeks... help! I changed my internet provider, so I ended up having to change my Apple ID. I did so on the appleid.apple.com site and that worked fine. I then started having popups on my PC asking for my password and it had my old AppleID. I could not use my former password, so I was stuck. I read on your support site to temporarily reverse the AppleID on the appleid website, complete the login on the iCloud popup, then logout of the PC iClould, change the AppleID back to the new provider and relogin on the PC iCloud. It worked like a charm.
Except for the fact that it forces you to select the "remove items" during the logoff. Really? Why not make that an option, Apple? My question is how do I restore all of my iCloud data back to my PC now? I have LOTS of data! It is all there on the cloud side...
I guess I should clarify that all of this data is on the iDrive in many directories and sub-directories
Thanks much
