I hope this helps you out.What if my files don't update to iCloud?
Check these things first:
- Make sure that you have enough iCloud storage. If you need more space in iCloud, you can buy more iCloud storage or free up space by deleting content.
- Sign in to iCloud on all of your devices and turn on iCloud Drive.
- Make sure that you have an active Internet connection on your Mac and on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch.
- Install the latest versions of Pages, Numbers, and Keynote. See which versions of Pages, Numbers, and Keynote you can use with iCloud Drive.
- Create a new document and save it to see if it uploads to iCloud. If it does, see if the other documents start uploading.
If you tried these steps and your files still don’t upload to iCloud, stay signed in to iCloud and save your updated files to a different folder on your Mac or PC. Then contact Apple Support for more help.
