[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1772863, member: 46727"] You definitely have to copy them back to a separate folder on the Mac before changing that setting to off. If you don't, the documents will be deleted and possibly lost. Don't copy them to the user documents folder as they will be duplicated back to the cloud. They need to be copied to a temporary folder first, then turn off the iCloud setting. After the iCloud setting has been turned off you can copy the documents to his Documents folder. [/QUOTE]
