Try the Following...

A. View the Downloads:

Tap the downloads button for Safari.


B. Single-Out Safari:

Try performing this using another browser. Any success?


C. New iCloud Session:

If items are not downloading as they should to iCloud, then log out of iCloud in Settings, and then log back in again.

Other than PDFs, what type of files are you attempting to access - and from where? What, precisely, happens when you try to open the files? Do you see any errors - and if so, what are they?
