iCloud drive files disappeared

My iCloud Drive files often disappear.


The symptoms are:

  • Most folders become empty on both local devices and in the cloud.
  • I cannot find the files in the Recently Deleted folder.


It seems that iCloud is not a reliable service since there is no version control and, therefore, no way to recover the files.


Please, Apple must solve this issue. I spent so much time preparing my course materials and don't know why or when they will disappear.

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 14.2
