Document and data on ipad

iMac has document and data.Where is it on iPad?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Documents & Data storesz your iWork documents, you'll find them in Pages, numbers or Keynote. Several other apps also use documents & data, if you use any of these apps, you'll find that data when you open those apps.
To see exactly what is using documents and data, look at system preferences > iCloud > manage.

Document and data deleted by mistake

I accidentally deleted my Goodnotes files from setting→icloud→document and data,and found that all the notes stored in the Goodnotes application have also been deleted. These notes are very important for my work, could anyone tell me how can I restore my notes? I use a ipad air and windows 7 pc. Thank you very much for your help.

The only way to get those documents back is to restore your iPad from a backup, either from iTunes on your computer or from iCloud:

or if you saved the documents to your computer, copying them back through iTunes. If you did not have a backup and did not transfer the documents to your computer, then unless they are somewhere else such as in Dropbox, they're gone.
Regards.

Ihave over 7gb of saved text messages that i cant delete, ive deleted all my texts and it still says that. ive read that backing up with icloud and turning off documents and data would eliminate this issue... well how...?

icloud will not allow me to backup my phone because of the 7gb of data its too much for the 5gb free space on icloud and i have the documents and data turned off in the icloud settings so i dont understand whats taking up all the space? the only thing i have on the settings is my photos and thats only 4gb. SOMEONE HELP ME!!!

I have this identical problem. For a while my group texts didnt show up on my ipad. Then one day they did, maybe everyone in the group started using the same os version or something. Ever since my first reply to the group there have been complaints of multiple threads. I can not find a pattern for when my group text's decide they want to create a new thread. (it doesnt happen every time) Everyone in the group has deleted the thread, we've all toggled imessage on/off etc. There still hasn't been a solution.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

I want to turn off Documents and Data iCloud syncing (in Sys Prefs on iMac) but it insists on deleting all docs from my iMac! HELP!

I don't want to sync my 'Documents and Data' with iCloud any more (iMac, iPhone and iPad). When I go into iCloud in System Prefs and try to uncheck the Documents and Data box it tells me 'all docments stored in iCloud will be deleted from this Mac'. Really need to keep all my docs and quite shocked that iCloud would even consider deleting them from my iMac. Does anyone know any way round this other than backing everything up and restoring it after it's been deleted? Thanks!

Hi doodlebuglondon. I understood you throughout the thread as I have the same situation. I turned it on, then decided immediately to turn it back off. It then gives you the scary warning, assuming you understand under what circumstances documents got stored in the iCloud. Like you, I had no idea. But I did see 5 GB of 5GB available on iCloud Storage, which was a hint. So I opened a folder with some Pages documents, turned off Documents & Data, clicked the big scary "Delete from Mac" button. If it had really deleted my iWorks documents, like you, I would have had to restore perhaps 40 or 50 disparate folders. Whew!
Did it work out OK for you? I note you were very clear in pointing out you hadn't actively put anything in iCloud, but who knows whether Apple magically puts stuff in iCloud for you. I couldn't find that explained anywhere in Apple's "instructions", but I'm sure it's buried in there somewhere.

What is documents and data and how do I remove it?

When I updated my phone I noticed documents and took up a lot of space. What is it and how do I remove that?

I made some significant discoveries on the Documents and Data battle last night and wanted to share.
1) Turning off Documents & Data made no difference in the 4.7GB chunk of mystery space being used up by D&D on my iPhone 4S.
2) Removing Texts did help, but I was still left with 4.1GB of mystery space. I had one text message with my son in the USAF that had lots of videos and pictures. I made sure to save them to my Camera Roll before deleting. But that one text was over .5GB. So Texts matter.
3) Backing up and Restoring just my Settings did not eliminate any of that 4.1GB.
4) Reseting my phone as a new phone initially did, until I added my two email accounts.
JACKPOT.
5) My Gmail account, upon extensive review, retains all the same folders on my phone as it does in my Gmail account on the computer (which I've never once visited). I looked in each folder until I came across one that said All Mail...containing 830 emails that date back to the establishment of that email address in the summer of 2012. On my phone there is no option to delete those, other than the painful process of going Edit>Tap>Tap>Tap>Tap>Scroll>Tap>Tap...830 times. I logged onto my Gmail account on the my computer, visited the All Mail folder, did a mass delete (100 items at a time) and then emptied the Trash
6) All 830 items were still on my iphone and were not budging without individually being deleted and I couldn't find a Sync with Gmail type option, so I deleted the Gmail account and then added it back to my phone immediately.
BOOM - Docments and Data went to 60.1MB.
The good news is that if you have a Gmail account and need to fish out an old email, you probably can. You have to work at it to make them go away. I had one come in this morning and had to flush it through my Inbox, the All Mail and then the Trash to get rid of it. I've opted to instead use the Gmail app for that account to save me this drama again.
I also use an iPad and through the cloud, had duplicates of ALL my text messages and the gmail account. Which explains the 'your storage is almost full' messages I've been fighting.
I am happily restoring all my music and plan to spend today in an 80s music haze. I hope this helps someone.
Good luck to all.

IOS Still Won't Sync Documents and Data

For about four months I haven't been able to use iCloud's documents and data on my iOS devices. AppleCare have tried to help but I'm still getting nowhere.
If I open an iWork app on my Mac it shows me the files which are stored on iCloud. I can go into Safari, upload or delete a file and it's reflected live in the apps on my Mac. If on my iOS devices I open up, say, Pages and I'm met with the lone "Getting Started" document. I've gone into the iCloud settings and documents and data is on and then checked the settings in Pages, Keynote, and Numbers and they're all set up to use iCloud.
I have toggled these iCloud settings, deleted my iCloud account across the Mac, iPad, and iPhone and the iOS devices are still not showing any of my documents. I've gone as far as resetting my iPhone and iPad to factory settings, restoring the devices and still getting nothing. I even formatted and did a clean install of Mountain Lion on my Mac but still no luck.
If I go to Settings > General > Usage, iCloud > Manage Storage and look at Documents & Data > Pages -- it displays a list of the files up on iCloud. Same with Keynote and Numbers.
The iOS side can see the documents up in iCloud but won't show them in the appropriate iWork apps while the Mac and iCloud sync quite happily. I should say that Calendars, Mail, Reminders – everything but documents and data – work perfectly. Just documents and data. AppleCare had engineers reset my account but still no luck.
Has anyone had a similar experience?
Thanks

Hmmm, I'm able to sync fine with Outlook 2003. Unfortunately, the iPhone won't sync with any Outlook versions prior to that one.
I was upset and frustrated too, but some savvy net searching yielded a fully licensed, legit copy of Outlook 2003 for less than $40. I actually like it better than previous versions of Outlook and see it as a great upgrade, and it syncs with the iPhone. Upon installation, it brought over my old Calendar, Contacts, etc. It's all there.
I've ditched using Yahoo! calendar and contacts as I never felt comfortable with putting my friends and family's information on the internet.
Hope this helps. Cheers!

How to delete "Documents and Data" without deleting App?

iPad does not have any way to clear the "Documents and Data" items. I need the experts to help me out. Thanks

The "Documents and Data" use up the memory and my iPad only has 16G ....

8.1 icloud drive for Document and Data is not working well

On my iPad Air 2 and iPhone 6 (both on ios 8.1), every other day my apps would stop syncing with icloud. I noticed this with a few apps such as 1Password and Drafts 4.
icloud for default calenders and reminders were still working during this down time, just the Document and Data not syncing with icloud.
Remedy action:
(1) I need to off icloud drive
(2) press on home bottom and On/off bottom simultaneously to re-start the device
(3) then switch on the icloud drive again to make the Document and Data sync with icloud again.
This is really irritating and how can I think of a PC-less future when icloud is not reliable?
I am supposed to gain synergy for using 2 ios devices but I am certainly not feeling it at the moment.
Please can Apple fix this soon?

Page and Numbers are having the same problem. It gets so irritating that I have turned off the icloud drive for both apps.

How do I delete documents and data on the iPhone 5?

I've been seeing responses such as turning it off, so I did. However I didnt change my memory at all and when I found out whats using it up it was message with (saved) next to it. So i deleted some conversations from other contacts, but it barely dropped to like 1 GB. I check and check to see what else is being used up and music I don't have a problem with and I always delete pics and apps, like google drive. Can someone tell me how can i delete even more of documents and data?

That is certainly a possible interpretation.

Document and data not showing in mac

I upgrade my iCloud to iCloud Drive when I used the Yosemite . Yesterday, I reinstall Mavericks and then iCloud is not working anymore. I can't see iCloud in Pages , Numbers, Sketch 3 , etc. I can't access any iCloud Data anymore and I can't work at home now.
Is there any way to download iCloud Drive or how to do to support iCloud Document and data again in current Mavericks.

Is there any way to download iCloud Drive or how to do to support iCloud Document and data again in current Mavericks.
iCloud Drive does not work with Mavericks. It requires the system support of Yosemite.
There is no way to share documents in iCloud between Mavericks and the system to come. Use dropbox, if you need to share documents between incompatible system versions.

Reset documents and data in yosemite

How does one reset data & documents in iCloud under Yosemite? I've used this support document (https://support.apple.com/kb/PH14669?)viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US) under Mavericks, and the directions worked. But under Yosemite, all I see is a dialog box that says (paraphrasing) "click here to sign out of iCloud on all browsers." The button to "reset" is gone.
Any help appreciated.
Early 2009 iMac, 8GB RAM, Yosemite 10.10.2 with all updates.

Welcome to the Apple Community kmaddenmpg.
That is what is supposed to happen when you reset documents and data, it indicates that there is some difference between the two sets of contacts.
The following article(s) may help you.

Why is my "Documents and Data" section taking up so much space on my iPhone?

Before I updated my iPhone to iOS7, my "Other" section was giant, taking up over 4 GB! After I updated, the section split into "Other" and "Documents and Data". My "Other" section is under control now, but my "Documents and Data" section has over 3 GB, and I can't figure out why. I deleted many, many texts and it hardly changed the usage in this section. I've searched all over Google and Apple and can't seem to find a solution.
I don't even know what this space is used for. What falls under the usage of "Documents and Data"?
And how can I minimize this usage?!
Someone please help!
Thanks!!

According to Apple at the time to the iOS launch, it was confirmed that the iOS 8 in iPhone 6 will consume maximum 3GB of space.
So its actually the iOS 8 and the system files that has been categorized in the OTHER section using 2.83GB of space.
