Time to move Desktop and Documents from my Mac to iCloud?
Hello!
I just recently started to move Desktop and Documents from my Mac to iCloud? Seems to take forever… Any idea how long it takes in average with a decent connection?
thanks,
iMac

When you rename a file or folder, don’t change its filename extension, or you may no longer be able to open the file with the app that was used to create it. To be warned before you change an extension, select “Show warning before changing an extension” in the Advanced pane of Finder settings.
If you want to change a file’s format, use the app you used to create the file. For example, TextEdit can convert a document from plain text format (.txt) to a rich text format (.rtf), and Preview can convert many types of graphics files.
