iCloud data recovery takes forever than crashes
So I’ve deleted some files, and now I’m trying to restore them using iCloud.com on the browser. And while I’m thankful that this feature exists, it’s full of fail.
- the “Select All” feature doesn’t work and trying to restore all available files results in a crash every time:
No seriously, EVERY TIME..
- and because were in the “Tim Cook era“ where things don’t just work anymore, you cant just hold Shift and easily checkbox a row of consecutive files, you have to select 3 at a time, scroll the window, then select another 3, then scroll the window and so on…

- Thankfully, it’s not my files I’m recovering, it’s for a client who’s paying me upward of $100 an hour to sit here and click 3 files at a time and recover them… They’re probably going to be very upset when I hand them the bill, so I’m recording this whole fiasco.
- I’m posting here to see if anyone knows of any other way to do this faster so I’m not up till 5 AM exhausting myself. Or is the check 3 files and recover, the only method available?
