How to use Mobile Documents in Library in my Mac as backup for iCloud?

Does anyone know how I can ensure the Mobile Documents in Library in my Mac contain updated versions of the documents created and modified in iCloud (just to be safe)? I know the purpose of iCloud is to host these documents and make them available to all my devises, but I want to maintain a backup on my own mac as well, just in case.
Thanks in advance for the help!

I logged on to icloud through Safari on my mac. I can see all the updated files there.
Is the mac reading the files from the Mobile Documents folder? If so, then that is very weird indeed.
No, it's not using the mobile documents folder if you are viewing the documents thrrough your browser, but it is using the Mobile Documents folder when you view all your documents from the iWork applications themselves.
I've been assuming you see them there.

  • How to use a single iPhoto Library from multiple macs

    I'm trying to help my brother out with his iPhoto Library and his Mac network.  He has a Library on a MacBook Pro that is about 65GB.  I am moving it to his Mac Mini to make it the primary Library.  What he wants to do is be able to load new photographs from any Mac in his house and have them appear in the primary Library.  If I make the Mac mini shareable and point iPhoto on each of his Mac's to the Library on the Mac Mini, will that work?
    Are there any down sides to doing it this way?  Can you create multiple Libraries for iPhoto, the other thing we are thinking about is to organize his Library by years.
    Thanks
    Elliot

    What do you mean by "make the Mac mini shareable"?
    Iphoto is not really designed for this kind of use, but there are some possibilities - with limitations.
    I'm assuming you want to use the same library for each machine, so there is only one.
    Put the Library on a disk formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and set to ignore ownership and permissions.
    Then point each machine at it in turn.
    Remember only one machine can access the Library at a time, and attempting to do so with multiple machines can cause damage.
    How are you connecting to the Library? A strong warning: If you're trying to edit the Library (that is, make albums, move photos around, keyword, make books or slideshows etc.) or edit individual photos in it via Wireless be very careful. Dropouts are a common fact of wireless networking, and should one occur while the app is writing to the database then your Library will be damaged. Simply, I would not do this with my Libraries.

  • How to use Mobile VOIP on BB9300

    Please guide me how to use mobile VOIP to make call from BB9300. Please advise

    You need to download and install the latest Ovi suite and install it on your laptop. Connect your phone to your laptop via usb or bluetooth in PC Suite mode. In Ovi suite, goto Tools > Connect to Internet. After setting your country and carrier, the suite will connect you to the internet via your phone.
    Note that this will connect you using your phone carrier's network, so you will incur data costs on your phone plan.

  • How to use xsl document() function with LiveCycle XSLT processor

    Hello,
    I would like to use LiveCycle XSLT processor to merge xml documents by using the xsl document() function.
    However, I have not, yet, found  clear reference information on the specifics of how to accomplish in LC. For instance if you have
    a transformation that does merging using a standalone xml editor (such as Oxygen), than what is required to accomplish the same
    using the LiveCycle XSLT service.  How do you specify the URI of the XML document that is specified as an input in the xsl document() function. Your insight is appreciated.   Regards

    Hello Steve,
    I checked the reference that you cited (XSLT Transformation).   The reference omits discussing how to use xlst document() function within a stylesheet.  I think that probably means that feature of xslt technology is not directly available through LiveCycle.  When I find a workaround, I'll post an update...for the user community that might encounter the same issue.  Thank you for your response and insight.  Regards, jb1809

  • How can I move my iPhoto Library from one Mac to another without losing the comments on the individual photos in the process?

    How can I move my iPhoto Library from one Mac to another without losing the comments on the individual photos in the process? The source Macbook (OS 10.4.11 and iPhoto 6.0.6 (3.2.2.)) is with my husband in Germany, the target MacBook Pro (OS 10.8.5, iPhoto 11) is with me in Japan. Thanks for your help.

    I copied the iPhoto Library to a CD and from there to the new MacBook
    If you copied the library to the CD via the Finder it would be no different than the methods Terence suggested.  If you used the Share ➙ Burn menu option from inside iDVD you'll get a mini library that has to be accessed from the open library and the events/alubums copied into the destination library.  Not the same as the other methods.
    The Share ➙ Burn method is no longer supported with iPhoto 9 and later.

    how do i import an iPhoto library from a time machine backup? I did a back up and i formatted my machine. How do i get iphoto to be the same?

    This screenshot shows how to restore a library from Time Machine.
    There is NO importing necessary.  One should never import one library into another.  Just restore it to your Pictures folder and launch iPhoto.

  • How to use the manually entered Hours/Days in the Duration field for BG_ABSENCE_DURATION

    Hi All,
    How to use the manually entered Hours/Days in the Duration field for BG_ABSENCE_DURATION fast formula?
    Requirement is to restrict employees for applying for leave more than the accrued balance. In SSHR, apply leave functionality, the employee enters the start date, end date and duration manually. The entered duration must be used in the fast formula to check against available balance.
    In the BG_ABSENCE_DURATION FF, I have a function to calculate the net accrual balance as on the calculation date.
    I want to add the logic as - If to_number(Duration) /*[manually entered value]*/ > net accrual balance then
    Duration = 'FAILED'
    invalid_msg = 'Error'
    return duration, invalid_msg
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    We have a standard functionality to override the duration calculation and you don't need to add a validation for the same. Please set the value of profile option HR: Absence Duration Auto Overwrite to Yes
    When you do this user will not have to enter the duration value manually. It will get auto calculated based on the duration calculation in BG_ABSENCE_DURATION when you click on the next button.
    For not allowing negative leaves to be applied, If you are on R12 then, this is a standard functionality and you need to set profile option HR Allow Absence Negative Balance to No
    If you are on 11i then refer Note: 268171.1: How Do You Stop Accrual Plans from Going Negative?
    Try and let me know in case you need further help.
    Thanks,
    Sanjay

    How do I save my iTunes library from my windows pc to my iCloud account?

    You can't. iCloud does not apply to music. You will need to subscribe to iTunes Match to get music into the cloud but note that this is not a back up service.
