Hi, my Mac operating system is OS X El Capitan, i want to get all my Documents files into iCloud Drive and have them synchronised. That means when i change anything in any file, the same in iCloud Drive changes accordingly so that I can always have backup. How can I do that?
MacBook Air, OS X El Capitan (10.11.6)
Automatic sync of Desktop and the Documents folder was introduced in Sierra. You can't set it up in El Capitan. You can drag the files into iCloud Drive if desired.
Thank you Allen,
In that link, they asked to update the Mac to OS Seirra, is it a must? Pls note that my mac is on El Capitan.
Secondly, when i press options next to iClound, i do not see Desktop & Documents option!
Please advise
You don't given a right answer, we want to know if we can use Icloud Sync (desktop and document folders) in our mac with El Capitan. I don't want to use Sierra because I did a clean installation and the imac started to run too slow (imac late 2013).
Thanks a lot. Advice: I did a new clean installation in my iMac late 2013 trough internet recovery mode and now the machine run fast, even with High Sierra!
You are welcome.
