Hi dr.aslam,


Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. It sounds like you’re having trouble trying to restore files from iCloud. I’m happy to help. To start, I suggest trying the steps here:


Access iCloud Drive files from your iPhone and other devices - Apple Support


Should the issue persist, I suggest signing out of, and then back into iCloud on your Mac. You can do so by clicking  > System Preferences > iCloud > Sign Out. You can sign back in using the same steps.


Let me know if that helps.


Take care.
