Re: iCloud Drive

['E.T.' via MacVisionaries]

Jonathan,
   Thanks and I will save this information. I did another fresh install 
of Ventura 13.6.6 but this time I did not use Migration Assistant. While 
I was looking more closely at the Time Machine backup, I realized where 
the trouble was. I will verify this another time but think Time Machine 
by default will include other APFS volumes. Thus since I was not paying 
attention, I had restored some data from a different volume.


   Things are looking good now, still a bit of tweaking to do.

...Quick Tip:

Before following our manual recommendations, you should know about quicker 
alternatives like devoted maintenance and optimization tools for Mac.

For instance, Intego Washing Machine is a great and easy-to-use option because 
it has various system cleanup features that allow you to manage and remove 
unwanted items from the “Open With” menu.

How to Remove Items from ‘Open With’ on macOS Using Terminal Command

Obviously, you don’t need two or more occurrences of the same app in the “Open 
With” menu.

So, you need to remove the extras. To do so, you need to run the 
lsregistercommand using Terminal.

This will rebuild the Launch Services database that maintains the list of apps 
in the “Open With” menu.

Time needed: 2 minutes

To rebuild the Launch Services database and rid yourself of these duplicate 
items in “Open With,” follow these instructions.

Launch Applications > Utilities > Terminal.
At the command line, issue the following command:
/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Support/lsregister
 -kill -r -domain local -domain system -domain user

After the command completes, the Launch Services database will be rebuilt. 
However, Finder won’t be able to re-read the new database. So, you will need to 
do a full reboot of your Mac.
Once your Mac is rebooted, you can log in and see if the extra items are gone 
from the “Open With” dialog.

Final Words

Aside from running the lsregister Terminal command, there are also utilities that can help 
you rebuild the Launch Services database. CleanOpenWith 
<https://macdownload.informer.com/cleanopenwith/> and Onyx 
<https://www.titanium-software.fr/en/onyx.html> are two such tools and are both 
available as free downloads. Any of these two tools may be a quicker and easier way of 
getting rid of multiple occurrences of apps in the “Open With” context menu.

Best wishes,

Jonathan Cohn

Hello,

"The document “Catch All.rtf” could not be opened.  Try your operation again. If

   Doesn't matter txt or rtf file type or application. Did some testing and think somehow 
I have duplicate application entries that show up in the "open with" menu item.

   Can someone tell me how I can remove these duplicates? Thanks much.

   I had googled earlier today and got a clue to where to look. Not at 
all what I expected so will change how I handle documents in iCloud Drive.

It is also in the file menu=>Share where for me it is the first item.

want to share. I arrow down to “share” and press vo-space. then I hear”add 
people.” if I press vo-space on that I can arrow right and get: “choose how 
you’d like to send you invitation.” and then: “messages, mail and copy link. I 
think airdrop is after that. first time I did that it worked but now pressing 
vo-space on “copy llink” doesn’t seem to do anything. is thetre another way to 
access this?

thanks.

   Of course. It is after all a file sharing system. Bring up the 
context menu on an item and you will find a Share button.

Re: Sharing a file on my iCloud drive

['Donna Goodin' via MacVisionaries]

Joseph,

I, too have wanted to do this on occasion.  As I understand what you wrote, if 
I copy a file from my iCloud Drive to my downloads folder, then paste that file 
into a mail message, the recipient of that message will see not the filename, 
but a link.  But when I tried that, it did not work, I saw the filename, just 
as I would have expected.  What am I missing here?
TIA,
Donna

Re: Sharing a file on my iCloud drive

[joseph hudson]

Hi Paul, you can copy the file from your downloads folder and it will send it 
as a link. They don't need to sign into iCloud in order to download the file. 
It will give them an option to play or rewind our fast forward or tram, but he 
will just have to advise them not to modify the file if you don't want them to 
modify the fil but it won't affect your copy of the file if they do anything to 
it at their choice. Your copy of the file will be the same. I recently sent 
somebody a zoom link file and it sent it via iCloud once it was pasted into an

Sharing a file on my iCloud drive

[Paul Hopewell]

Hello,
I am running the latest Ventura on my 2019 iMac. I use VoiceOver and want to 
share an 60 MB or so MP3 file which is in my iCloud drive with about 10 people. 
I need these people to play the MP3 file but not allow them to modify or delete 
it.
In the past I used to do this via Drop Box. I loaded the file onto Drop Box and 
then used the context menu to get a Link to the file which I then included in 
the Email to the relevant people.
I can still do this but would rather avoid Drop Box. Is there some way to get a 
Link to the file on my iCloud Drive and include it in an Email? Note that some 
of the Email recipients use iPad and others use Windows. I want the process to 
be simple for the Email recipients and do not want them to have to install 
iCloud or other software on their machines. If that were necessary I would 
revert to the Drop Box solution.
Many thanks for any tips… Paul Hopewell

IOS: how to read TXT files in iCloud drive contents selected Subject: edit text

[Paul Hopewell]

Hello,
FYI I received the answer from E.T. whoo often posts to this list. He told me 
to first open the desired App in IOS, which in my case is VoiceDream Writer. 
You then open the Files App and locate the desired file and do a 1 finger 
double tap. This opens the file using the desired App. IOS seems to set this 
App as the App to open files of the same filetype. This all worked fine for me 
using the latest IOS 16.4.1.
Many thanks to E.T.  … Paul Hopewell

Re: IOS: how to read TXT files in iCloud drive

['Harry Bell' via MacVisionaries]

if you double tap and hold on the text, file, you get a pop-up menu, including 
the share option. You can then use that share sheet to open the text file in 
perhaps voice dream writer if you want to read and edit it. It can then be 
exported either as a text, file or as a M Microsoft word file.

IOS: how to read TXT files in iCloud drive

[Paul Hopewell]

Hello,
I need to share some TXT files between my iMac and my iPhone using iCloud 
drive. I can edit these files on my iMac using TextEdit butt when I do a 1 
finger double tap on a TXT file on iCloud drive the file is opened by Dolphin 
EasyReader  which is not ideal. I need to read the file line by line by 1 
finger flip up and flip down. I suspect that I can associate a different App to 
process a file on IOS by choosing the share option. I really need to set up an 
appropriate App to process all TXT files on iCloud drive. My top priority is to 
read the files on IOS and it would be good but not essential if I could edit 
these files as well on IOS.
I would welcome any suggestions.
Many thanks … Paul Hopewell

You can put any files or folders in the drive and they will sink. You are not

Ditching dropbox for iCloud Drive

[Phil Halton]

My dropbox subscription is coming up for renewal and I'm thinking about 
cancelling and just going with iCloud drive storage. I have less than 
30Gigabyte of files that I want to keep and that'll cost me .99 cents instead 
of $10 per month for fropbox's 2 terabyte.

Question: I see a handful of preloaded folders in my iCloud drive but can I 
just throw files into it as desired just like I would with Dropbox? or, is 
iCloud drive regulated somehow and only for application folders?
I hope I am making sense with this question. I'd just like to know I can use 
iCloud drive in the same way as I do dropbox before going ahead with the switch.

And, how is the files app involved with iCloud drive? is that the interface for 
iCloud on ios?

Re: IOS 16.3 How to get Safari to read an html file in iCloud drive

[Herbie Allen]

One way I can think of is to put the file in your downloads folder. You should 
then see that folder in Safari and it might open the html that way. I wonder if 
it can also be done in the context menu but not sure.

IOS 16.3 How to get Safari to read an html file in iCloud drive

[Paul Hopewell]

Hello,
I am running IOS 16.3 on my iPhone SE 2020.
I have a html file on my iCloud drive which I want to read with Safari. If I 
locate the file via the Files App and double tap on it the html file gets 
loaded into Voicedream reader which I do not want as the html file contains 
links to web resources which do not work in Voicedream reader.
Is there any way to choose which App you want to use in IOS to process a chosen 
file on my iCloud drive? 
Alternatively is there anything I can do in Safari on IOS to point it to a file 
in the Files App?
Many thanks for any tips.
Best regards … Paul Hopewell

Yes, if I select an item in iCloud, then use vo-shift-m to bring up the

Come to think of it the default finder toolbar has a share button that also has

Tim,
   I'd never noticed this App Library thing before. Good to know about 
this. Appreciate the info!

you can copy and paste it into the App Library version and delete that 
folder version of Pages.


I hope this makes sense.

Hi,

The App Library instances are important, so you should not get rid of them.  
I’m not certain that it will even let you get rid of it.  Items that are 
folders, are items that you’ve created yourself, whereas the App Library 
instances are where the specific app, such as Pages, likes to save its content. 
 These App Library items are accessible to all your devices that are using

Accessing iCloud Drive from two different user profiles on a PC?

['Donna Goodin' via MacVisionaries]

Hi all,

Somehow my Windows user Profile got corrupted, so I had to create a second user 
profile on my PC.  Unfortunately, all my stuff is in the original profile.  I 
was hoping that at least a partial work-around would be to be able to access my 
iCloud Drive from both user profiles, but when I set up iCloud in the new 
profile, rather than just giving me access, it seems to have created a second 
copy of my iCloud Drive, and now I’m getting disk full error messages.  Does 
anyone know if there’s a way to access iCloud Drive from two different Windows 
user profiles without having two copies of the drive on your hard disk?
TIA,
Donna

Re: Refreshing iCloud Drive

[Dave Carlson]

Okay, I went back to iCloud settings in the iPhone, and iCloud in System 
Preferences, made sure I had everything checked, and then launched iCloud.com 
 in Safari on the Mac. After I logged in and went through 
all that 6-digit verification code stuff…dah-dah-bang, gah-dah-boom! It’s 
working again. Thanks for pushing me in the right direction.

Re: Refreshing iCloud Drive

[David G. Carlson via iPhone]

Likely you are correct. I need to go back and see if I set up something 
incorrectly. It’s strange that a couple files are updating to fairly recent 
vintage, but most of them are stuck back in the dark ages.

Hmmm.  That is odd.  Like I said, 5 minutes should be the longest you have to

Dave,

Did you just start syncing things in your Documents and Desktop folders, or has 
this supposedly been syncing for quite a while?  If it's brand new, then it may 
take a while for everything to move up to iCloud then be visible to the iPhone. 
 If it's not a brand new thing, I have seen it take a while for the iPhone to 
see updates or changes to files.  Not a real long time, maybe 5 minutes or so.  
The only way I know to refresh things, would be to either turn off iCloud Drive 
on the iPhone, then back out of Settings, wait a minute or two then re-enable 
it.  I don't recommend that approach.  Alternatively, you could close the Files 
app from the app switcher, then upon re-opening it, it would do a poll of the 
existing iCloud Drive data.  Again, this should only be necessary if you've 
been syncing iCloud Drive for a long time and this is just happening lately.  
Finally, of course, there's always the good old restart of the iPhone that 
likes to fix all sorts of unknown issues.

HTH.

Re: Refreshing iCloud Drive

['Tim Kilburn' via MacVisionaries]

Dave,

Did you just start syncing things in your Documents and Desktop folders, or has 
this supposedly been syncing for quite a while?  If it's brand new, then it may 
take a while for everything to move up to iCloud then be visible to the iPhone. 
 If it's not a brand new thing, I have seen it take a while for the iPhone to 
see updates or changes to files.  Not a real long time, maybe 5 minutes or so.  
The only way I know to refresh things, would be to either turn off iCloud Drive 
on the iPhone, then back out of Settings, wait a minute or two then re-enable 
it.  I don't recommend that approach.  Alternatively, you could close the Files 
app from the app switcher, then upon re-opening it, it would do a poll of the 
existing iCloud Drive data.  Again, this should only be necessary if you've 
been syncing iCloud Drive for a long time and this is just happening lately.  
Finally, of course, there's always the good old restart of the iPhone that 
likes to fix all sorts of unknown issues.

HTH.

Later...

Re: Refreshing iCloud Drive

[J. Cyr]

I ran into this issue with the Notes App just  yesterday.  Being very new to 
the Mac I presumed I was missing something or doing it wrong and called Apple 
Accessibility.  After going through everything he knew to do the rep assisting 
me concluded that it was a technical problem, referred it to the correct 
department and arranged a call back with me next week.  Very interesting to 
hear I may not be the only one experiencing   this problem.

Re: iCloud Drive and Editors

['E.T.' via MacVisionaries]

   After going brain dead last night I came to that conclusion too. I 
found something in a Google search that indicates that one can only 
import text files into Writer. So today I will go back to the TextEditor 
app I already had and see what happens.

Hi ET,
So I have no problem saving a document as RTF, but you are correct, you can't 
open anything but plain text in Writer. Too bad, that seriously limits its

with txt documents anymore!

   Perhaps if I could impose upon you, it might help me if you can tell me how 
you do it.

   Using Voice Dream Writer, what steps do you take to create or edit an rtf 
document? Do do all of it from the Voice Dream Writer on iCloud Drive?

   When I edit the document, I do not see a save option. Under the Export 
button I used the export to external destination option.

Re: iCloud Drive and Editors

['Donna Goodin' via MacVisionaries]

Hi ET,
So I have no problem saving a document as RTF, but you are correct, you can't 
open anything but plain text in Writer. Too bad, that seriously limits its 
functionality. Not sure what the developer was thinking here. I mean, who works 
with txt documents anymore!

Donna

Donna,
   Perhaps if I could impose upon you, it might help me if you can tell 
me how you do it.


   Using Voice Dream Writer, what steps do you take to create or edit 
an rtf document? Do do all of it from the Voice Dream Writer on iCloud 
Drive?


   When I edit the document, I do not see a save option. Under the 
Export button I used the export to external destination option.


   Thanks much Donna.

   I may be overdriving this. I want to settle on which rtf editor I 
use on the Mac and on the iDevices. I copied the same document to the 
native TextEdit folder in iCloud Drive. But on the iPhone, when I want 
to the TextEdit folder and selected that file, it opened in Voice Dream

would open in iCloud Drive.

Re: iCloud Drive and Editors

['Donna Goodin' via MacVisionaries]

Hi ET,

When you open text editor, it defaults to showing a list of recently opened 
files. But at the bottom of the screen, there are two buttons, recents, which 
is selected, and Browse. If you tap browse, you can browse and open files in 
iCloud drive.

In Voice Dream Writer, the easiest way is by opening the File Manager. All your 
recently opened files will show up there. (Note that you will want to enable 
iCloud syncing.) Alternatively, you can select Add Document, which is at the 
top left of the screen, right next to the File Manager button.. Then select 
Import from External Location. Then you'll have a choice between Recents, and 
Browse. If you Select Browse, and iCloud is enabled, that will be one of your 
options.

Re: iCloud Drive and Editors

['Tim Kilburn' via MacVisionaries]

Hi,

A problem with the method I mentioned is that it will make a duplicate copy of 
the document in the other app.  so, for example, if you chose to share the 
document to Pages, it would make an editable copy of the document with the 
dot-Pages extension.  Thus, you would not be specifically working in the same 
document as you had originally in the Files app.  Not sure if this will be 
improved upon in future updates to the Files app, but that's the best I can 
suggest for now.

iCloud Drive and Editors

['E.T.' via MacVisionaries]

Hi Donna,
   We had discussed this regarding rtf editors and iCloud Drive. I am 
finally getting around to working on this.


   On the iPad I can find any file using the Files app. But how then 
would I edit a file using say, TextEditor or Voice Dream Writer? On the 
other hand, if I open either app, I cannot find the file in its folder 
on iCloud Drive.


   I've been placing certain documents on iCloud Drive for easy access 
from any device such as a list of shortcuts for Mac or iOS. Reading them 
is fine. But if I need to do any editing, that is where I am lost. If I 
can figure out iCloud Drive, I am home free. Thanks.

Re: How secure is iCloud drive?

['Andrew Lamanche' via MacVisionaries]

As an alternative, you could create a sparse bundle disk on your mac using Disk 
utility.  You can password protect it and I believe it is encrypted too.  Only 
a person who knows the password can open such a disk. You can specify how large 
the disk you want.  I did so a number of years ago.  It sits on my mac in docs 
but to open it you have to know the password.  YOu can also copy it anywhere 
you want and the password protection remains.  I chose a couple of GB for the 
size of the disk but you can decide on any size.

Re: Synchronizing Files in iCloud Drive Between Mac and iPhone

[Jonathan Cohn]

I believe you are  on the right track now, but what was happening to you was 
that you ended up with two copies of the documents. One being synced to your 
phone and another in your documents folder. In terms of incremental backups if 
you are using Apple's system where when you edit a file you don't have to 
actually click save for it to be saved, then the Macintosh is automatically 
making a regular backup of that file no matter where it is. 
Best wishes,

Jonathan Cohn

RE: Synchronizing Files in iCloud Drive Between Mac and iPhone

Hey Dave,

No issues,

 That's what this list is about.

Everyones here to help everyone else.

 Although I'm still thinking ET has lost his home phone number and has just 
decided to stay,

Simon and E.T.,
Seems to be working now. What I did:
Located the Documents folder using the Dock, and opened.
Copied all the folders and files I wanted to have synchronized.
Verified that any change I made on Mac showed on iPhone, and vice versa — Voila!
Created an alias for the Documents folder on my Mac Desktop for rapid access.
Re-built other alias for individual files so that they pointed to the correct 
locations.

Thanks very much for helping with this.

RE: Synchronizing Files in iCloud Drive Between Mac and iPhone

[Simon Fogarty]

Hi Dave,

Then simple 
If you update a file in any of those folders then the file should be updated on 
the phone or your mac as well as the other device because it's saved in one 
place but shared through the iCloud drive service.

RE: Synchronizing Files in iCloud Drive Between Mac and iPhone

[Simon Fogarty]

Hi Dave,

 As you probably know, 
With iCloud drive on your mac computer enabled you have specific folders sync'd 
to the iCloud environment 
I think it's documents, desktop  by default.

I can't remember if they are included in time machine backups  by default but 
you could have a look at your time machine back up drive and see if they are 
showing in the backed up content.


If they are included then if you put the folders your wanting to add in to your 
documents folder which should be in iCloud drive then  that way everything 
should be sync'd and backed up as you require it.

Simon,

I understand what you are suggesting. However the “fils” app on the iPhone is 
the interface to iCloud Drive. I do have iCloud Drive enabled on my iPhone.

I’m wondering if I cannot have those files and folders on my Mac hard drive, 
but instead have to move them to the iCloud Drive and always access them there, 
whether on my Mac or on. my iPhone. If so, I’d just need to set up an alias to 
the iCloud Drive on my Mac desktop to make it easier to get at that set of

If this is the case, then how would I ensure that these files get incrementally

You are not you mistaken. They should be syncing. Make sure that iCloud Drive

RE: Synchronizing Files in iCloud Drive Between Mac and iPhone

[Simon Fogarty]

Hi Dave,

On your mac you have iCloud drive,
What about on your iPhone 
Do you have iCloud drive synched  or are you some how copying your folders from 
your mac to your files application?

To me if you update the files in the shared iCloud drive folders (Mac ) then 
the files should have updated time / date stamps to say you've updated them.

If the files / folders viewed through your phone are not showing the same time 
/ date stamps then they are not updated on your phones files app.

  Try using the iCloud Drive option under settings / iCloud  so that you get 
the iClud drive share setup on the phone as a live connection.

I may have mis-stated what is happening.

I have several folders from my Mac hard drive copied to iCloud Drive. I can 
access those file from my iPhone using the files app. But what I was expecting 
is that when I change the file either on my iPhone or on my Mac, that the file 
would be changed across both platforms.

I’m thinking that simply copying the files and folders from the Mac is not the 
correct approach for using the iCloud drive, since there appears to be no 
linked connection between the Mac hard drive and iCloud drive.

Is that why I’m not getting what I expected?

If so, how would I be able to have files that reside on my Mac hard drive be 
available to view and edit on my iPhone, that would allow them to always be 
synchronized?

is that when I change the file either on my iPhone or on my Mac, that the file 
would be changed across both platforms.

I’m thinking that simply copying the files and folders from the Mac is not the 
correct approach for using the iCloud drive, since there appears to be no 
linked connection between the Mac hard drive and iCloud drive.

Is that why I’m not getting what I expected?

If so, how would I be able to have files that reside on my Mac hard drive be 
available to view and edit on my iPhone, that would allow them to always be 
synchronized?

Hi,

You are not you mistaken. They should be syncing. Make sure that iCloud Drive 
is checked in settings on your iPhone, and that the specific applications such 
as Pages or Numbers are also checked in iCloud settings on all devices.

Synchronizing Files in iCloud Drive Between Mac and iPhone

I have files in the iCloud Drive that show up on my iPhone in the files app. 
They are hopelessly out of date. Why do I think these files should

RE: Virtual machine folder after moving documents to iCloud drive

[Simon Fogarty]

Yes you will have moved your vm folder to icloud drive also.

 Bad move sorry to say,

 You could possibly redirect your vm client to the location in icloud drive but 
then your working over a slower connection.



If you can move it back to your local machine you will be better off but the 
location of the folder will be the thing to consider.

I'd go with the shared folder under Users.

Hi,

I've not noticed a limit, but I really haven't put more than four or five 
devices using iCloud Drive at a time.  I believe that there is a limit of 10 
devices that can be associated with your Apple ID, so that may be a limitation. 
 Although, that may also be different now that HomePods and Apple TV's are 
associated with your Apple ID.  It would be annoying to use up the device count 
just because you like multiple HomePods and Apple TV's in your house.

Re: Is there a limit on the number of devices you can have signed in to iCloud drive?

['Tim Kilburn' via MacVisionaries]

Hi,

I've not noticed a limit, but I really haven't put more than four or five 
devices using iCloud Drive at a time.  I believe that there is a limit of 10 
devices that can be associated with your Apple ID, so that may be a limitation. 
 Although, that may also be different now that HomePods and Apple TV's are 
associated with your Apple ID.  It would be annoying to use up the device count 
just because you like multiple HomePods and Apple TV's in your house.

Later...
