    You do not provide much details on the context - but assuming you are updating and organizing files on a PC at home and consult iCloud from other devices elsewhere, we could assume that the synchronization of the file you place on the iDrive on your PC are not propagated to the cloud.

    I would check Internet connection and eventually re-install iCloud on the PC (letting the iDrive cache at the same place). If successful, iCloud engine should resume syncing again merging iCloud and PC content (you may then have to clean up a little bit your iDrive).
