I have an icloud account, with documents enabled, but nothing seems to save to the cloud, it is only on my laptop. What do I do?

    You need iWorks, Textedit or Preview to save to iCloud, if you use iWork you need it at each end (Mac - iPad etc)

    My Mac tells me however that Iwork has been discontinued.  I am havibg the same problem - I want to load a document to the cloud (so I can access it on the IPAD) but do not understand how to load it.

    What type of documents?  What application on the mac are you using to try to save to icloud?  "only on my laptop" - does this mean you are able to save using something else?  More info please.

    Thank you for responding.  I have written a document in Pages on my MacBook Pro which I wish to upload to the cloud so I can view it in pages on the IPAD and make any adjsutments.  I have both machines switched on to recognise the cloud but when I try and save it in pages straight to the Icloud it does not give me the option.  All I can see is Save (and then of course the edited version is saved onto the laptop).

     

    Thanks
