iCloud Drive isn't compatible with OS X Mavericks

Hi TomNYC,

without downgrading this will work: Go to safari, "iCloud.com", login with your iCloud account and go to numbers. You will find your already existing spreadsheets. Download the spreadsheet(s) you need to work on, choose numbers format. The files will end up in your download folder. I suggest moving them from there to a folder of your choice. e.g. create: "iCloud-exchange". Now you can open these files with numbers on your Mac. Do any changes you want to these spreadsheets and save them to this "iCloud-exchange" folder. If you need them in iCloud again, open both your local folder "iCloud-exchange" and numbers in safari ("iCloud.com") sides by side and drag&drop the files you want from "iCloud-exchange" to numbers"iCloud.com". Last not least: pray to god that apple will come up with a better way the next time they choose to change their cloud service - and wait for yosemite.

Thanks for that, Michael. Didn't know you could drag and drop files from the Mac directly into Numbers for iCloud. Not true sync, but it's good to know there is a partial workaround.

Question below. Sorry created this by mistake.

Hi Andrea,

I got exactly the same message when I open a new numbers and a page document. So far I have just clicked ' ok ' and gone ahead. I have had no problems so far , so I assume its not an issue. I checked on the iCloud account and my numbers sheets are not there. Not sure why , how and if they should be - probably as they are not saved under the icloud drive. Do you think that could be the reason?

Is it recommended to follow your suggestion? Can you please advise if not done, would there be any consequence to my existing number files and documents.

Thanks,

Sunshine from NL
