Q: How do I use iCloud Drive?

I've been looking at the iCloud Drive page http://www.apple.com/icloud/icloud-drive/

 

It says you can do all these things but there are no instructions on how to do any of them.

 

It says I can get to my content from my PC, how do I do that?

A:

iCloud Drive is a folder on your PC that you can place files and folders in.

 

You do this like you would for any other file operation.

 

Drag and drop. Copy and paste

Once in the iCloud Drive folder, the content will be uploaded and synced to your iCloud Drive account online, Assuming you have the space of course. 5GB comes free, and you can pay for more if needed.

    Thanks, they sure make those instructions hard to find.

     

    That said, if I may continue, I've installed iCloud for Windows on my PC, activated iCloud in my iPad (OS 10.0.2), added my photos, and nothing's appearing on my PC's iCloud download folder. Any idea what I'm missing? Thanks for the help.
