I am unable to to have documents on my MacBook Pro store in my iCloud account so I can access them across devices. I have made sure that the correct items are selected in my ICloud settings on my MacBook but still not seeing them show up.

After following the ICloud guides I can still not get my MacBook to sync documents to ICloud so I can access them on other devices. All devices are on most current software update.


Anyone have any ideas? Known issues?


Thx!A

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 12.4

Are you storing the files in "iCloud Drive" on your MacBook Pro?


If you open Finder it should be on the sidebar.


If it's not on the sidebar, open the Finder preferences. You can open the Finder preferences by clicking Finder on the top left and clicking "Preferences" or by using the shortcut (while Finder is open):

⌘ ,


Once Preferences is open there is a tab for "Sidebar" where you can select what sections are visible or not in Finder's Sidebar. Under iCloud, you'll find "iCloud Drive" (make sure it's enabled).


Try storing your files there and seeing if that helps you!
