I can't seem to access a number of Excel files that I accessed as recently as 10/21/21. I upgraded to Big Sure recently and also upgrade to MS 365. Help!!!
MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 11.6
Have you searched for these files using Spotlight or in a Finder window search?
What version of macOS were you using before upgrading to Big Sur?
Where were the items located? Were they being synced to the cloud as part of iCloud, One Drive, Google Drive, Drop Box, etc? Is that cloud syncing service still enabled? Or maybe you just activated the cloud syncing service which may affect the items located in the Desktop, Documents, and Downloads folder. I don't use any of these cloud file syncing services so I cannot provide any more details.
Check the Trash to see if they may have been accidentally deleted.
If you cannot find the files, then restore them from your backup.
I am trying to access a number of Excel spreadhseets that I am certain that I have not deleted. One is a folder containing tax docs, and the other spreadsheeets were last accessed on 10/21/21. All of a sudden I cannot find them? Help!!!
