Numbers will not sync with iCloud

Two weeks ago I started a new spreadsheet and then shared it with two others under the collaborate with others button. It worked perfectly and I had no issues.


Now, others are no longer able to see the spreadsheet and cannot make any changes.


I literally changed nothing and this very useful part of numbers is no longer working for me. Does anyone have any experience with this problem or suggestions on how to fix it?


I'm using numbers on my MacBook Pro with operating system 11.2.2.

MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 11.2

Thanks for getting back with us about this. If you stop sharing the document, then re-share it, is the behavior changed at all? Follow these steps to stop sharing: Stop sharing a spreadsheet in Numbers on Mac. If the behavior persists, please create a new spreadsheet and attempt to share that one. If the same thing happens again, we may need to look into possible software on your Mac profile that could be causing this.


Please let us know the results of your troubleshooting so we can best guide you to a resolution. Thanks and take care!
