Is there any way to sync iCloud drive to a local folder on my Mac?

Hi there,
I would like to have a local copy of my documents held in iCloud Drive. I understand that I can set up subfolders in the iCloud Drive folder in finder, but assume these are not held locally??
I have a application called Goodsync that I used to keep my dropbox folder synced with my docs folder, but I assume this program won't work as I cannot find iCloud drive locally to tell it to sync my document folder with (which I used to do with Dropbox very easily).
I'm aware there is another thread on this point, but to be honest the content of that thread is rather beyond me. I'm aware that if there is a local version of iCloud Drive, it is likely to take some time to sync with iCloud.com, but at the moment I don't even know if there is a local copy of iCloud Drive. I feel there must be as I can copy content to the iCloud Drive on my mac pretty instantly (but it doesn't obviously sync with iCloud.com instantly).
Any pointers much appreciated
Cheers
Justin

All folders and files on the iCloud drive are duplicated on your hard drive. They are located in the Users/Home/Library/Mobile Documents folder
It will take a bit of time for additions to the iCloud Drive folder
to be synced to the online iCloud.com Drive folder.

    is there any way to sync my work pc outlook contacts and calender with my personal mac air

    Sure. Install the latest version of iTunes on your PC, and just connect your iPod Touch to it, decline the prompt to autosync (the warning about losing your music), then go into the info tab, select sync contacts, and click apply. Your contacts will be transferred (both directions, i.e. the outlook contacts and your IPT contacts will be merged and the combined set will be present on both lists).
    Hope this helps...

  • Is there any way to sync notes from iPhone 4 to MacBook Pro?

    Is there any way to sync notes from iPhone 4 to MacBook Pro?

    If the phone doesn't power on and isn't seen by the computer then you wouldn't be able to pull data off it with the USB connection to your computer.
    You could pursue data recovery if the notes are very valuable, but the cost can be similar to having data recovered from a failed computer drive(possibly prohibitively expensive).

    Is there any way to sync my lotus notes calendar and contacts with the calendar and contacts on my MacBook Pro?

    You would need to have enabled iCloud on your MBP. Your question indicated you did not.
    Its serial number is useful for establishing ownership should the MBP be recovered. File a police report.

  • Is there any way to sync Outlook for Mac with iPhone? I have tried everything but not successful. Apple says it is not possible to sync contacts from Outlook for Mac to iPhone 5. Any help will be much appreciated.

    Is there any way to Sync contacts from Outlook for Mac to iPhone 5? Apple support says that only iTune can only sync contacts from "Contact" which is the default contact of Mac. If one is running Outllok on a Mac machine then it is not possible to sync the contacts with iPhone. It is strange that Apple distributors are promoting and offering machines with promise that Windows users can now run MS Office on Mac machines without any problem. While this is true, it is so strange that one cannot sync the contacts from MacBook Pro to iPhone5. If someone has found a way to sync contacts from Outlook to iPhone 5 please help as it is very frustrating to not be able to sync the contacts. Thanks, Amit.

  • Is there any way of syncing mail on mac with mail on iphone so if you open an email on one it is marked as read on the other?

    The title speaks for itself. It's very anoying opening a message on the iphone and when you get to the mac all the messages you read allready on the iphone are not opened yet. Is there any way of syncing them so if you open a mail in iphone its marked 'read' in mac?
    Thanks in advance

    Such behavior requires an IMAP or Exchange account. Sounds like you have a POP account & that's the way that POP accounts work. POP was designed for an age when users had only one device...a computer, thus POP doesn't play well in the modern world where users have multiple devices.

    Upgrade to 10.7.5. See:
    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.

  • Is there any way to organize icloud mail by discussion?

    Is there any way to organize icloud mail by discussion?
    This funcitionality seems to be on all other apple devices, but I can not find a way to organize my emails by conversation.
    If this feature is not currently available on icloud mail it desperately needs to be added.

    There is no option to sort photos with various options in the Camera Roll on your iPhone just as there is no way to do the same with a digital camera. The default sort order is by date and time - as photos are captured or saved from another source such from a received email or text message.
    Not sure why the sort order changed with your iPhone's backup, but there this can't be changed.

  • Is there any way to sync 20 iPads to the same account and keep their folders?

    Is there any way to sync 20 iPads to the same account and keep their folders?

    We have 2200 student iPads on our school campus. When starting from scratch they all receive one identical image and then are renamed according to their property tag (manually ). Students are then checked out their device for the school year and often move their apps around into folders. I often have some come back in to be synced, updated, etc. and I do mid-year updates to apps. As long as their names are unique I have no issues with them retaining folders when they are resented late. So basically as long as you don't mind doing the set up to each one of the 20 the first time you sync them, you can update them whenever you'd like, adding and updating apps, and you can retain folders.
    And of course there are all sorts of other options with Configurator and other MDMs.
