iCloud restore files is utterly useless
I accidentally removed my entire Documents directory. I would think that's what iCloud backups are for, so I went to Safari, logged into iCloud. Had to enable web access first and after that I was able to access Data Recovery.
I found 900-something files.
First problem:
I get a flat list of files, unable to sort on Directory name (it does show the source directories).
Second problem:
The window is so stupidly small it shows 2 lines only. How the F am I supposed to scroll > 900 files that are randomly sorted by delete date or name (and not directory) to select only the 800-something files that I need??? Whoever designed this at Apple needs the left foot of fellowship (ie, get fired).
Third problem:
Need I say more?
Fourth problem:
I can try again, it will restore a few more. I can try again, it will overwrite some, and restore some new ones.
HOW MANY TIMES DO I NEED TO DO THIS BEFORE I GET ALL MY FILES BACK!!?!
The one time I actually need this, it doesn't F**G work!!
I'm not even going to apologize for my tone, I am so ****** off and so frustrated right now! I can't make silly mistake and fix it with the very tool that is designed for it.
Please Apple ... if you read this, the restore option needs a complete overhaul! It is so utterly useless it's BS. Seriously ...
