Hi, Not that this helps your situation at all, but, just a clarification for you. Anything that is in iCloud, is also on your Mac already. Therefore, moving those items out of the iCloud area does not specifically do anything profound, in fact, you're losing one backup location.
For example: * File xyz.pages saved in iCloud resides off in Cyber Space, in /Users/YourAccount/Library/Mobile Document/blah blah blah, and in your Time Machine location if you use Time Machine. Thus, three places to recover from. * File abc.pages stored somewhere else on your Mac such as the Desktop, is in /Users/YourAccount/Desktop/abc.pages and in your Time Machine backup. So, only two locations. Later...
