iCloud Drive Stuck Uploading...

Hi,

Yes I have added iCloud drive to my finder. What I meant is that I can't see the cloud icons indicating which files are currently being processed by iCloud. I don't know if this feature is present in El Capitan or not but it's not showing up to me.

I can navigate my iCloud drive but I cannot tell which file has and has not been uploaded to iCloud. This is my problem. There is one file that is stuck being uploaded. I don't know which one.

If there was a terminal command or console log or something to help me locate, or way to kill the sync process from the terminal, this is what I'm looking for.

I appreciate all the responses so far but this issue is apparently quite common and still unresolved for me...

Hi,

I'm basing my assumption on what is displayed in the finder status bar: "8 items, 236.1 GB available, uploading 1 item Zero GB of 385.3MB".

I am also basing it on an educated guess based on common problems with iCloud syncing that I searched for online...

Thanks Winston,

Unfortunately, the finder is not showing cloud icons like you've displayed.

Hence I cannot find the file.

I don't know if this is because I'm running 10.11.6...

Hence the problem remains, I still can't locate the offending file...

Hi Eric,

I did think about that, but when unchecking the iCloud box I get a message about deleting files on my Mac! This would be the last thing I want to do if it includes files that haven't yet been uploaded to iCloud...?

Hi Winston,

Thanks for trying to help me from beyond the grave.

As I mentioned in the first post, my main problem is I don't know which is the offending file, or how to locate it?

I'm curious, why would the fact that there is likely only one file that it is stuck on make it any easier to locate? Did you read my original post?
