"Documents In The Cloud" lost after restore

Hey,
My Safari was acting up so I decided to restore my Air to a Time Machine copy that was like 2 weeks old. After doing this my Pages documents have been restored to the date the backup was made! This is horrible, I had some important work in there. Guess with all this smart cloud technology it's still important to keep backups :/
Anyway, is there ANY way I can get my Documents In The Cloud items back to what they we like yesterday, before the restore?
Any help is MUCH appreciated.

Documents stored in iWork (e.g. Pages docs) on icloud also have a copy stored locally. When you restored from a TM backup, you got back the old iwork files. Whether viewing the older files has put those copies in icloud, in place of the new ones, I'm not sure. But if you log into icloud.com and go to the iwork page, you'll find those files there. You can then download them to the mac. Whether they will be the recent, new versions or the old versions, I don't know.

After the last update I lost a lot of documents I had edited and saved in my tablet. Any option to recover them? Now I can only access the documents of the cloud.

Hi,
Please take a look at one of the following documents to see if it answers your question about finding the files that are locally stored on your device.

"Documents in the Cloud" vs iCloud---lost docs

I put in a new SSD and upgraded my MBP to Yosemite. All good---except some docs I had written using Text Editor are now somehow just gone. Evidently these were saved to Documents in the Cloud, which is now just gone...??
What has Apple done with my docs that were saved in Mountain Lion to (what it called anyway) the Cloud?
In Snow Leopard, my last OS, my Text Edit offered an option to save and open docs either to/from On This Mac, or onto Cloud. Some I had saved to Cloud, they are now in some unknown domain of cyberspace, or annihilated.
Apple says iCloud Drive now doesn't offer saving of text docs written in Text Edit. The Text Edit app used to offer saving/opening docs from what it called "Cloud"---evidently that was Apple's Documents in the Cloud, which is now deprecated---?
Apple told me that "the docs might be saved in Pages format" on iCloud Drive, but I thought I would inquire here if anyone had any experience with this, it looks like once you upgrade to iCloud Drive there's no going back, so I'm afraid to upgrade and then find the docs still aren't there and have been annihilated.
How to find my previous Documents in the Cloud folder, now that I'm on Yosemite with a new hard drive? I tried searching the old hard drive for .txt docs, it doesn't seem to see them. I have not searched Time Machine, but if I can't find the .txt files on the old hard drive, how would I find them in Time Machine?
I was a fool not to save the Documents in the Cloud docs separately---hoping someone can help me figure out if they still exist.

Documents in the cloud seems to be dead after update

After the latest update (Mac and iOS) iCloud Documents is no longer working. icloud with calender and contacts is working but not documents in the cloud.
I use iwork on all my devices (iPad/iPhone/Mac) and it worked well in the last year. Now all functions are dead.
No up/download from/to Mac. Tried log out/log on to iCloud no change. Tried to connect via browser, but after selecting Pages or any other iWork app i'm always asked to give in my apple ID again. (This was working for weeks without any problem)
Any idea?

iCloud IS a disappointment. I am more than frustrated by the iCloud document service and sync. I teach and use a Numbers spreadsheet to keep track of my projects, grading and classroom attendance. I used to carry around a flash drive or use my wifi to exchange the latest updates to and from my laptop and desktop. When iCloud began I was excited about the possibility of accessing one file from two devices. But I am getting only upload failures and errors every time I try to access the shared document. It appears that the file is saved from the laptop and is accessible there. But if I go onto the iCloud web site or try to open the document from another computer, the document isn't there or, more than likely, the saved document was uploaded incompletely. So now I have a local backup on my laptop, another on my desktop, one incomplete document on the cloud and the original saved on the cloud on my laptop. The whole system is unreliable.
My fear is that since Mtn Lion saves 'local' documents to the cloud (unless you manually change the save to the hard drive), any document left up there will not be accessible by a new replacement machine or even a correctly inputted id and pw.
I'm going back to local save, copy and replace method of keeping one file up-to-date on multiple computers and talk to the iCloud geniuses to find out what's going on. I'll report back.

HT5527 My icloud apple ID had been disabled after icloud services downgraded my 18Gb documents in the cloud to 5Gb. I can't updated now because when i try to do it i get a message saying that my ID is disabled

My icloud apple ID had been disabled after icloud services downgraded my 18Gb documents in the cloud to 5Gb. I received an email from icloud services a couple of months after i upgraded my icloud storage (on Sept30th) saying that my billing info was wrong. In fact my credit card was outdated so i updated my credit I can't updated now because when i try to do it i get a message saying that my ID is disabled. Can you help me?? I can't access my docs now...

Can't see Numbers 2.3 documents on the cloud after upgrading to Yosemite

Hello all,
Just upgraded to Yosemite on a machine I was using Numbers 2.3 (yes, the new 3.X design is not working for me) with documents on the cloud. Now when I open a doc, the only "cloud" option is iCloud Drive.
Is the 2.3-on the cloud functionality now broken? Do I have to upgrade to iCloud Drive (and, subsequently, to the latest Numbers)?
Help!
Thanks

Yes I did that, as I stated above - by hitting F3 and looking at the different desktop spaces. I'm wondering if it is just hidden below some border of the screen ? How would I determine that?

Pop up window says need to upgrade to newer version to work on document from the cloud. go to app store and it says already installed...help

pop up window says need to upgrade to newer version to work on document from the cloud. go to app store and it says already installed...help. Am trying to work on document from office computer at home on laptop.
This is what the pop up says:
You need a newer version of Numbers to open this spreadsheet.
You can download the latest version of Numbers from the Mac App Store.
Thanks,

WS,
At first, it can be difficult to determine which version of Numbers you are using. The user interfaces are different, but if you are new to the apps you may think you are using the new version when if fact you have launched the older version. Make sure you are using Version 3.x. Then you won't get the message that you need a newer version.
Use Spotlight to launch Numbers. After typing Numbers into the search field, pick the result that says "Numbers -- Applications".

Documents in the Cloud not working

I'm having issues with the Documents in the cloud feature for a couple of days now, first I thought my restore fixed it but as I was working with some documents in iWork for iOS I ran into the exact same problem again.
All my documents display the arrow going up badge or occasionally a progress bar that doesn't fill, and other apps that support iCloud for storing documents just refuse to let me access them.
I checked the logs for my iOS devices (an iPad 2 and iPhone 4S) and they both exhibit a particular line when I try to sync my files with iCloud
librariand[1208] <Error>: client connection is invalid: Connection invalid
I have no clue what's going on, going to icloud.com on my Mac and entering the iWork webapp doesn't show any documents either, even thgough I succesfully synced all of my Pages documents across my iOS devices yesterday and they are still on sync.

I'm having weirdness in Numbers and Pages too. Just upgraded an iPad 4 to 8.1.1, and now neither Numbers or Pages will load the iCloud documents. In fact, when I turn on "Use iCloud" in Settings and go to either of the Apps, nothing changes, but when I go back to Settings the "Use iCloud" has been switched back off. Both Apps load very slowly. When they finally do open and I click the + sign in the upper left of title bar, a blank cartoon-like bubble opens, then the App crashes. Interestingly a new iPhone 6 running the same software works just fine... both Apps load quickly and retrieve the iCloud documents instantly. I haven't got a clue...

Documents in the Cloud a one-way street?

I was really looking forward to the Documents in the Cloud feature so that my Numbers spreadsheets would stay in sync between my Mac, iPad, and iPhone. However, currently any documents I save to iCloud from my Mac never become visible to Numbers running on my iOS devices. However, if I create a new document on iOS, the Mac version eventually sees it and also changes made on the Mac are synced to the iOS versions, albeit with quite a delay. The Mac is running Mountain Lion and all apps are patched to their latest versions. However, my iWork on the Mac is a boxed copy as I bought it before the MAS versions came out.
Does anyone have ideas on how to make this work properly? In the current form it's not quite what the feature description promised.

Actually, I found this:
Documents in the Cloud. And on your Mac or PC.
iCloud makes it easy to move Pages, Keynote, and Numbers documents between your computer and your iOS devices. Just sign in to icloud.com/iwork in any modern web browser, and all your iWork for iOS documents will be there — complete with your most recent edits. Click a document to download it in iWork ’09, Microsoft Office, or PDF format. You can also drag and drop any iWork ’09 or Microsoft Office document from your computer into one of the iWork apps on icloud.com, and it automatically appears on all your iOS devices, ready for you to review, edit, or present.
BUT - it states that the document will be downloaded. I am assuming then, that the document will need to be reuploaded after editing.
Can anyone confirm?

Documents in the Cloud - Need an easy answer

I have OS X Mountain Lion on a 27 inch iMac and 13 inch MacBook Pro, iPhone 4 and an iPad 2. I am trying to use iCloud to sync documents such as Pages Keynote and Numbers between them seamlessly. I have documents in the cloud turned on on all of my devices. I can upload documents into the cloud from my Mac computers, and they automatically upload into the cloud on my iOS devices. Any changes I make to the document on my iOS devices (ipad and iphone) automatically appear on my desktop and MacBook almost instantly which is awesome.I just can't get it to work in reverse. What I mean is when I make changes on my imac or MacBook Pro the changes do not appear automatically on the iOS devices. Is there anyway to sync or save the changes made on my Macbook pro or imac directly to my iOS devices without saving the document and re-uploading the document onto iCloud after making changes or editing the document. This only adds another version of the document in the cloud which doesn't seem logical. having more than one copy of the document and iCloud seems ridiculous. I thought this was the reason to buy mountain lion so that all devices would seamlessly work together, and keeps your documents in sync across all devces.
I know someone in this community knows the answer. It's a yes or no answer, as it's either possible or it can't be done. I don't want to hear maybe a future update may fix the problem. Thank you for any advice

Try this...
Open System Preferences > iCloud
Deselect the box next to: Documents & Data then reselect it.
On the iOS devices, tap Settings > iCloud
Switch Documents & Data off then back on.
Give it a minute or two for edits to sync between your Macs and iOS devices.

Documents in the Cloud with a PC?

I am thinking of using Pages & Numbers to manage some documents on my devices --> iPhone 4 & iPad2, MBP, but I sometimes want to edit these on my work laptop as well...which is a PC.
If I use documents in the cloud, will I be able to open anything on my PC with the appropriate Office apps?
I currently use Dropbox, which works great, but is limited in my ability to edit anything on my iPad...unless I pay for DropDAV...which I would prefer not to do.
If I instead move my documents to iCloud, I know this will sync things across my apple products, but what about modifying things on my PC??
Has anyone tried this?

Documents in Numbers all gone after restore my iPhone

I am using Numbers on my iPhone running iOS 5 for sometime, and Documents in the Cloud syncing is working fine all these while. But since I restored my iPhone, all documents in Numbers are all missing and the app won't sync the documents back to Numbers on my iPhone. When I try to logon to iCloud.com I can see the documents still in the Cloud. I even try to delete and reinstall numbers but the the documents just won't sync back to my iPhone. I have created a new document on Numbers, and the document just show a upload arrow sign without further action. Has anyone encounter the similar problem?

But since I restored my iPhone, all documents in Numbers are all missing
On the iPhone tap Settings > iCloud
Make sure Documents & Data is switched on.
