All of my documents are in iCloud and I have 135 gb of storage available in iCloud. I have checked optimize Mac storage one both my laptop and iMac. Both devices have enough storage space for all of my documents and pictures. However, I can not locate my files on my devices. I want to have them both in iCloud and on my devices. What am I doing wrong? I thought that optimize Mac storage does this.
