I can't find my files through iCloud Drive

Through Safari, on my Mac, I added files to Preview in my iCloud account. I cannot find them on my iPhone or iPad. Can anybody help?

There is no icloud drive app available for ios devices so icloud drive is kinda useless on ios devices.
You have too use other apps with icloud drive support like documents 5 but this does not work perfect for me.

  • Can you share large files on iCloud drive like dropbox?

    I am exploring how to use iCloud drive now...and had a basic question.  Can you share large files from it in a similar way as you can with dropbox?  This is a great feature of dropbox...or google drive when mailing large files just doesn't work. 
    I have a Yosemite beta currently, and it doesn't look like you can do this. 
    I also was wondering if anyone has figured out how to make an alias of the iCloud drive on the desktop rather than always opening a finder window in order to drop files into iCloud drive....

    Have a look at the iCloud Drive FAQ:  The file size limit is 15 G:   iCloud Drive FAQ     http://support.apple.com/kb/HT201104
    You can store any type of file in iCloud Drive, as long as it's less than 15 GB in size. There's no restriction on file type, so you keep all of your work documents, school projects, presentations, and more up to date across all of your devices. Learn more about managing your iCloud Drive files.
    If you make an alias to a folder on iCloud Drive, you can drag it to the Favourites in the Finder sidebar. That is the best I could do.

  • Finder can't find / display files in external drive

    Just upgraded to Lion on my MacBook, and Finder can't find / display files from my external thumb drive. I got message that the external drive was removed incorrectly, but I did not remove the thumb drive at all. After several attempts on removing and inserting the thumb drive, the files just didn't show up under Finder, and I have no way of working on files from external drive. I went to a Window based notebook and checked, the files are still in my thumb drive so they have not been corrupted, hopefully. How can I make Finder works with external drive in Lion ?

    The problem I have was finally resolved by having a "clean" install for Lion, meaning to back up your hard disc, re-install Snow Leopard, then Lion. It's a lot of work but my MacBook is now working.

  • Can't find Imovie file on external drive

    Hi,
    I finalized a project and exported it to an external hard disk. Used ' share' and 'export using quick-time' and saved it on a hard disk. However I can't find the file anywhere on the hard disk. What am I doing wrong??

    Hi
    And the external hard drive is formatted as ?
    for video - it must be Mac OS Extended (hfs) (mine are journaled)
    UNIX / DOS / FAT32 / Mac OS Exchange works for most other things BUT NOT for video whatever editing tool used. iMovie, FinalCut etc doesn't matter - it just doesnt work but cut's up video in 4GB bit's that don't connect back or play.
    Select the ext. HD icon (one click) then go up to file and down to Show Info and read
    • Formatted as : nnnnnnnnnnnn
    • Frames per second
    What does it read ?

  • Can't see Garageband files on iCloud Drive

    I've updated my iPhone 5 to iOS 8.0.2 and the latest version of Garageband (2.0.3) for iOS and am having problems accessing Garageband files I've saved to my newly converted iCloud Drive.  Garageband on iOS still sees the files.  As does Settings -> General -> Usage -> iCloud Manage Storage.  But when I go to iCloud.com to access my iCloud Drive there are no Garageband files/folders to be found.  I'm still on OS 10.6.8 so this is the only way I can access my iCloud Drive from my Mac.  Perhaps these are stored as invisible files/folders but it would be nice to have access to them as I can with Pages, Keynote, Numbers, and iMovie.  Anybody else have this issue or have any ideas of how to correct it?  Thanks in advance!

    Hi, I've the same issues/questions. Sorry for my poor english but I'll try to explain there what's happen on my devides IPHONE 5s/IPAD air on IOS 8.1
    I'm dreaming about the possibility to access to "cloud" songs in ICLOUD DRIVE for example when I start to find a melody on my IPHONE, using Garageband to record my voice and after I want to continue at home with my USB Mic on the IPAD and finish the song.
    I've 2 issues :
    I'm unable to export or upload ".band" on ICLOUD DRIVE or even an exported mp3 from GARAGEBAND interface. I can see options like UPLOAD to ICLOUD or ITUNES or GARAGEBAND
    I cannot see how to access on both devices to 2 differents ICLOUD DRIVE because my ID on the IPHONE is not the same as the IPAD for many reasons and it will be very confortable to have this capability in my current settings.
    The previous solution was to export to ITUNES and use the AUDIO files or export as .BAND and import on MAC OS etc. But I thought that with the new mention (GARAGEBAND compatible) with ICOUD DRIVE it will become easier to do this kind of actions.
    Thanks to Apple care & the community !

  • Can't Find Music Files in C Drive

    There are many AAC files that I can see in iTune library, but I can't find those in 'My Document/My Music' folder, nor can I find those in my local hard drive. Where could these file be?

    Rename what, the m4a part? I wouldn't if I were you! The file extension (the m4a) tells both Windows and iTunes how to use the file. If you change it to something else, your computer won't know what to do with it.
    I don't know the full history of Apple's development of these files, but AAC is the name they gave to the encoding system that turns the CD music into iPod format. Perhaps it was only after they developed it that they discovered a good reason why they couldn't use aac as the file extension, but quite frankly, you don't need to worry about any of this, because now you know that Apple's AAC files are stored as m4a files. End of problem.
    Don't forget, the filename is what the computer (both Windows and MAC) and the internet use to handle the file. But that filename is not detailed enough for you and I to use on our iPods. So "tags" were introduced as an additional piece of information "within the file" so that we humans can see all the information we want. Those tags are what you see in iTunes and on the iPod.
    Or, did you mean renaming the song's filename? Well you can, but why would you want to? You can change the *name of the song* in iTunes so that it's your choice in iTunes and on your iPod, but the filename would stay as before. (Note that filename and song title/artists name are separate pieces of information that are not actually connected to each other. A song called "one, two, three" could have a filename of "xyz"!) A word of caution here; if you change the filename after you have added the song to iTunes, it will be lost by iTunes and you'll then have to spend time getting iTunes to find it again, probably after another post here to find how to find the lost songs! (We've seen such posts in the past.)

  • Win 7 can't find inf file through network.

    I have an old hp G85 that works great. i have the printer connected via usb to a computer that is running windows xp and that computer is connect via network cable into the wireless router. my other laptop is running win xp and works fine using a wireless card, i can print through the computer to the printer just fine. my new laptop can see the printer but it is looking for an inf file to install the printer. when i connect the printer to the laptop by the usb cable the computer can locate and install the printer but once i disconnect the cable and try to print and i get a print error.  i tried to download an install exe file but it doesn't like my win 7 os. any suggestions? i don't want full function operations of the printer, i just want to print through my network. 

    "when i connect the printer to the laptop by the usb cable the computer can locate and install the printer but once i disconnect the cable and try to print and i get a print error."
    After connecting the printer to the new laptop with Win 7 installed and installing the driver, did you go into the print driver properties and make sure the printer was connected to the shared printer port (Example: \\winxplaptop\oj85) rather than the local (USB) port for printing?

  • Can't find photo files on my drive

    When i upload photos to my iphoto account from my iphone or a digital camera, they only show up when i open iphoto. if i try to find the actual photo files on my computer, they are not there. I have a Macbook running OS 10.6.4 When i go to Pictures/iPhoto Library, no files come up, it just automatically opens iPhoto when i double click. How can i access the photo files once they are uploaded without opening iphoto?

    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
    *For Users of 10.5 and later*
    You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    (Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
    You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    *For users of 10.4 and later* ...
    Many internet sites such as Flickr and SmugMug have plug-ins for accessing the iPhoto Library. If the site you want to use doesn’t then some, one or any of these will also work:
    To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
    This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. However, if you're using Gmail you can use iPhoto2GMail
    If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    *If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running*:
    For users of 10.6 and later:
    You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu. Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
    For Users of 10.4 and later:
    Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
    Other options include:
    1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

  • Can't find some files after changing drive name

    I keep all my music files on an external drive, and my iTunes folder (and iTunes Music folder) on the internal drive. After changing the name of the external drive, a good number of files (not all, and probably not even most, but a lot) couldn't be found by iTunes.
    I'm suspecting that this problem results from having my files stored externally and separate from the internal default iTunes Music folder, but I'm hoping someone can give me some more details about this and hopefully help find a solution. Thanks.

    In the root of the filesystem there normally is a folder "lost+found", in which files with strange names are found. These are the files cvfsck has collected in the recovering of the filesystemnames. It is sometimes not possible to recover the original file name and location. So this is the only way for cvfsck to give them back.
    If you think the content of these files is allright, you can rename and relocate them.
    Regards

  • Had to uninstall Firefox, now I can't reinstall. Get error message "Can not find archive file." Please help!

    I believe I had some kind of virus attack. I got everything cleaned up. (I HOPE) In the process of cleaning the virus, I unintalled Firefox because it wouldn't open. Kept getting the error message that Firefox was already open and I had to close out of the sessions or restart the computer. After restarting the computer several times and not being able to find any open sessions in task manager, I uninstalled. When trying to reinstall, I get the error message "can not find archive file." I've tried downloading Firefox from cnet as well as the Mozilla site to no avail. Please help. I'm getting tired of using Chrome already!

    Hello,
    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
    #Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    Please report back to see if this helped you!
    Thank you.

  • HT1923 I can't uninstall or update iTunes. I get an error message that it can't find the file itunes64.msi.

    I can't uninstall or update iTunes. I get an error message that it can't find the file itunes64.msi. where is it suppose to be?

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?
