ICloud Documents not syncing to Mac

Hi
I have just recently completed a fresh install of Mountain Lion on my Mac Book Pro. Everything is working fine, apart from iCloud documents on not syncing to my Mac. Everything else on iCloud is syncing (Mail, Calender, Reminders etc...) just not; Pages, Numbers and Preview.
I have tried ticking and unticking the Documents and Data tab in iCloud system preferences, but this has not helped. When I look at the "Mobile Documents" folder in ~Library, the file structure is there but no files.
Has anyone got any ideas on what might be the problem?
Many Thanks
James

Save as many documents as you can to your desktop from iCloud.com or from the iCloud document panel in the appropriate Applications.
Turn off document syncing on every device.
On your mobile devices make sure document syncing is turned off not only in the iCloud settings, but also in the settings for each app.
Check the apps on your mobile devices no longer have any documents in them.
On your computer go to system preferences > iCloud > manage and delete any documents you see in your iCloud storage.
Restart all devices.
Re-enable document syncing device by device, ensuring that syncing is working properly before re-enabling syncing on the next device.

ICloud calendar not syncing with Mac calendar

I deleted the default "all calendars" calendar from my iCloud calendar in a browser because it was the only way to solve a bizarre issue where I had 2 sets of every event from an extra calendar that I had subscribed to and then unsubscribed from in Google Calendars. After I fixed my Google calendar (deleted, re-imported) and re-subscribed to the Google calendar from my Mac calendar everything looks back to normal in my Mac calendar and on all my devices. HOWEVER...I can't get anything from the Mac calendar (which is getting its data from my Google calendar) to come back and repopulate the iCloud calendar viewed from a browser.
If I enter a new event in either the iCloud or the Mac calendars it appears in the other calendar within a minute, but all of the events that populated the Mac calendar when I imported my old google calendar to repopulate it have never migrated (unless I manually go to each event and change it from a gmail calendar event to an iCloud event in the Mac calendar).
Help! Any ideas??

iCloud will not sync your Google calendar. To get it into iCloud, you have to export it as an .ics file, then import that to an iCloud calendar on your Mac. See http://www.groovypost.com/howto/osx-lion-import-google-calendars-icloud/.

ICloud calendar not syncing with mac

on my iPhone, when I input an event in my iCloud calender, it doesn't sync to my iCal on my Mac. (BUT, it does work the other way - if I make an event on my Mac it does show up in that calendar on my phone...) Any help much appreciated.

IWork documents not syncing on Mac

a few weeks ago I changed the e-mail on my Apple ID and now my iWork documents will not sync on my Mac. They do still sync on my iPhones and iPad. I have tried deleting the com.apple.keynote, com.apple.numbers, and com.apple.pages folders, signing out and back into my iCloud account, deleting and reentering my iCloud account, unchecking the data & documents syncing in the iCloud settings and nothing has worked. I am running OSX 10.9.2

OK, this now appears to have spontaneously resolved itself! Weird

ICloud will not sync my contacts or calendar in Mac Office 2011. ICloud does however sync to my PC at work running Microsoft office 2010 and also to my IPad and IPhone. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Welcome to the Apple community.
Unfortunately Office for Mac does not support the correct protocols to work with iCloud.

I accidentally deleted documents from Pages on my iphone - and now they won't show up on my mac anymore either. I must have saved them just on icloud and not on my mac, too. is there anyway to recover these documents?

On a mac, when you save docs to icloud, a local copy is also saved. It's saved at:
~/Library/Mobile Documents
Note that Library in the user's home folder is now hidden, so you'll have to set Finder to view hidden files.
The Mobile Documents folder has subfolder where copies of the doc/data files are stored.
If the file(s) are no longer there, then use your Time Machine backups to get copies back to the mac.

Why iCloud only allows store documents created by Pages, Numbers or Key Note ? How can I "iCloud" documents created with Word Mac or Excel mac??

iwork for ios accepts for upload and also happily opens all your Microsoft office files, from Office97 standard doc/xls/ppt to the 2011 versions of docx,xlsx,pptx and various other of these format extensions.
Notice : the upload feature in www.icloud.com is only active if you in fact own these apps on your iPhone/Pad/pod. it is not a feature of iWork for the Mac ( iwork09 ) which itself is not icloud capable at all.

My iPad and iPhone have the same syncing calendar but my Windows 7 PC with iCloud does not sync/show the same calendar...please help!

My iPad and iPhone have the same syncing calendar but my Windows 7 PC with iCloud does not sync/show the same calendar...please help!

iCloud will not sycn a calendar from an external source. In order to use iCloud to sync it, you would have to move it to iCloud and stop using Google. I know how to do that on a Mac, but I'm not sure how to do it on a PC. If you're using Outlook, I suspect you export it as an .ics file to your desktop, then import it to the iCloud account in Outlook. I'm sure you could use Google to find the specific steps.
However, there's really no reason not to just use Google to sync your calendar across your devices. Instead, just continue to use Goole calendar on all your devices and they should stay in sync. Take a look at this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C0Jj0KFgbYI.

Reversed iCloud "Document & data syncing" settings

Hi there,
I do have a "really weired" problem.
Using 1 iPhone and 1 iPad (mine) and another iPhone (my wife's) on the same iCloud account.
1) docs (i.e. GoodReader or Pages) generated on my iPad show up on my iPhone, but not on my wife's iPhone. So, my wife's iPhone seems to be "separated" from the other devices, even it's on the same "account".
2) on my iPhone and iPad in "Settings -> iCloud -> Document & Data syncing" it has to be OFF to make Pages and GoodReader show iCloud. If I turn it ON, immediately there's no more iCloud availabe. So this setting is "reverse sensed".
What is more, when I go to "Settings -> iCloud -> Memory & Backup" all devices show the same "usage", only let's say 10MB used it Pages and GoodReader (which is true for my wife's iPhone) even on my iPad there's >10GB of files in GoodReader.
All devices newest iOS.
When I found out files didn't sync to my wife's iPhone (which had the "reverse sensing settings" problem too), I deleted the iCloud account, used a differen account, deleted that too and activated my iCloud account again. That helped switch from "reverse" to "normal" settings.
This didn't help on the other devices (my iPhone and my iPad).
Is there any "RESET on the server-side" to get things running correctly?
Thx & best regards,
Peter

Correction and one more explanation:
Let's say, my wife's iPhone has in GoodReader -> iCloud -> Folder A (with 10 MB) of data-files, but doesn't see Folder B & C,
My iPhone & iPad both have Folders B and C with 1 (not 10) GB of data files, but cannot see Folder A. Everything that's created / moved / deleted shows on the other device (as iCloud is supposed to), but not on my wife's iPone at all.
And what is more, the "Settings -> iCloud -> Memory and Backup" on my two devices shows "10MB used in GoodReader" even if it's 1GB of data in there and "Documents & Data settings" is (and has to be) switched OFF.
At the Genius Bar in Munich Apple Store they were quite puzzled and said there is a Server-Reset, does anyone know how to contact iCloud support for that?
Thx & best regards,
Peter

HT2513 my iCal calendar that I created with the color green keeps changing to purple. no matter how many times I change it to green, it turns it back to purple. Of course this only happens with iCloud and not "from my Mac". Any ideas?

my iCal calendar that I created with the color green keeps changing to purple. no matter how many times I change it to green, it turns it back to purple. Of course this only happens with iCloud and not "from my Mac". Any ideas on how to correct this? This seems like a trivial error, but it's super annoying.

I called Apple and they said that they know about this problem. It's a problem with iCloud which their Engineers know about. (there was a new iCloud release, hence...) No ETA for a fix yet. I asked that this be escalated so Engineering doesn't put it at the bottom of their fix list. I talked to a Senior Advisor and mentioned to them to have QA check their regression tests as this has happened before to me (the problem just didn't take this long to resolve). I like to use green too for important stuff, so I've resorted to creating a new calendar using the normal calendar green for events going forward. They could have picked another color besides green to have this problem with and I wouldn't have been so upset. ;-)

Seems to be a major problem, according to MacRumours. Just have to wait, I guess...

ICloud Drive not syncing photos before 2013 to iPhone 5 -

ICloud is not syncing photos

iCloud is not syncing photos from phone to ipad? When I login to icloud.com there is no Photo folder?? I read somewhere that you must close camera on iphone for photos to sync, have been doing that, but that's not doing it now.

Photo stream photos are uploaded when the camera app is closed, the device is connected to wifi and has at least 20% battery life remaining. Also, only photos added to the camera roll after enabling photo stream are uploaded, not earlier photos. If those conditions were met and the photos are still not uploading, try turning photo stream off, then back on. Before turning it off, if you have any photo stream photos on it that are older than 30 days and are no longer in the camera roll, save them to the camera roll or you will lose them. (Open your my photo stream album, tap Select, tap the photos, tap the share icon -- box with upward pointing arrow, then tap Save to Camera Roll.)

After downloading maverick, iCloud will not sync across my devices

Since downloading Maverick [10.9], iCloud will not sync across my devices. Mail is not working properly. I'm being asked for passwords from everything.
Also, every time I close and then reopen Mail, I get a message saying "Mail cannot connect to the iCloud account "iCloud", requiring my password, again!
Is there a solution to this? How can I find out if it's server related, etc.?
Thanks to anyone out there that can help!

Try restarting your router and all the other devices.

Why will my icloud calendar not sync between my iphone and calendar on Outlook PC?

Why will my icloud calendar not sync between my iphone and calendar on Outlook PC?

I think I may be having the same issue In a round about kind of way. Just got an iPhone4S ... everything worked great until today when I started tinkering with the settings in my new phone and noticed my cloud was getting full and I had two iPhone back ups on there at 4GB a piece. So.... I deleted the old back up of the iPhone4 and after that is when I started noticing issues. The cloud on my phone can no longer authenticate itself , unable to tell me when the last back up was, and will not perform a back up at all. Furthermore I am unable to download apps or updates on my iphone4S, they all sit in "waiting" status....
I also must say that I purchased an iPad 2 and still have my original ipad in the house and active. Both back ups are in the cloud and both devices work fine independently and can download apps and back up fine as well. I'm pretty sure this may be the culprit concerning this issue and I too have no idea how to fix it. Please Help!!!
