Just read the article in the link you supplied and I think I can see why I’m 
not seeing the full benefits.

I’m running El-Cap and it looks as though there have been major improvements to 
iCloud Drive in MacOS Sierra.  I’ve not upgraded to Sierra since I never 
upgrade until around V3 since long experience with Macs has taught me it’s 
better to wait until the bugs have been well shaken out.

Since v4 is near release I may as well wait for that and then give iCloud Drive 
another go since it does look as though it will do what I want.  

Still be good if there was some indication DropBox style of when a sync is in 
progress.

Thanks for the help

Chris
