None of my desktop files are showing up on my MacBook Pro after I upgraded to Sequoia 15.0 today. I went into my iCloud settings > iCloud Drive and attempted to turn on Desktop & Documents Folders which is currently turned off. Every time I move the slider to On, it thinks for a second then immediately switches back off. I've restarted my computer and have the same result. Any suggestions/fixes?
MacBook Pro 14″, macOS 15.0
I just got off the phone with Apple support for this too. I couldn't see some, and then all, files on my Mac's Desktop, which were also in my iCloud/Desktop folder. Apparently this is a known issue. After I upgraded to Sequoia, I was supposed to accept a new iCloud license. Maybe I didn't see it or maybe it didn't show up. The support person had to reprompt me and I accepted it. They also said my iCloud account had a storage discrepancy they had to fix and it should be reindexed in the next 24 hours. In the meantime I can show hidden files (CMD SHIFT .) to see my files on my Desktop.
Very good, fixed my issue thx
Thank you so so much. Worked for me.
Would NEVER have worked it out.
Thanks a lot, this was very useful.
You da man! This fixed my issue, have been trying for days to fix. I had a sneaky suspicion it was parallels when I saw the hidden files in the tools section, but that just turned them on and off.
akcoddington, Thank you
Stressful when upgrading during work. Totally unacceptable that I can´t find job files on the Mac. Furthermore some of these files are certainly not permitted to store on my iCloud. Shame Apple!
Bingo! Thanks!!!
I LOVE YOU
