[QUOTE="PGB1, post: 1951398, member: 76746"] Thank You Ashwin for your explanation of how iCloud works and for the caution. Since I don't want to access computer files on another device, my best plan seems like to not use iCloud. I'd rather the files stay on the local hard drive. (And Time Machine and the Offsite Backup Application) For iCloud Drive, it may come in handy if I want to have a document available when I'm away- assuming I remember to put the document there. Thanks MacBiter for mentioning that DropBox can sync. Thanks Again Guys! Paul [/QUOTE]
