Q: why am i not able to find iPad documents in the iCloud on my imac

Hi darceyam,

I'm sorry to hear you are having these issues with iCloud Drive. If you are having issues accesssing your previous files, you may find the following article helpful:

What if I don't see all my files at iCloud.com?

Any documents that you've already stored in iCloud are automatically moved to iCloud Drive when you upgrade. iCloud.com will display these files in the new iCloud Drive app in addition to the iWork apps (Pages, Numbers, and Keynote) that you're used to seeing.

 

If you don’t see your files in the iWork apps or in iCloud Drive, then make sure that you set up iCloud Drive on all of your devices.
