Disabling iCloud
I no longer have any devices to sync with my mac but have an active iCloud account. I have archived on my mac my address book , ical calendars and bookmarks. Those are the current active iCloud functions. I would like to turn off iCloud and transfer my archives to their respective applications and convert them to "on my mac."
When I uncheck these functions in icloud they remove the data as described but when I restore with the archives they reappear in icloud and the headers in the apps say icloud. What am I doing wrong?
