How do I restore my MacBook Pro from the iCloud?

I backed it up before I dropped it off for repairs. Now I am having a hard time downloading all my files and email accounts.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.13

Hello Kevin Straub,


Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!


While some data is able to sync through iCloud from your Mac, you're unable to do a complete system backup to iCloud for a Mac.


In order to access anything you were storing in iCloud, you'll want to sign in to iCloud and select the data that you wish to sync. This can help with that: Sign in to iCloud on all your devices - Apple Support


Cheers!
