Synchronize files and folders on Desktop and Document on macOS Sierra with iCloud

One of the great features on macOS Sierra is the ability to use iCloud Drive better by syncing the files and folders found on the Desktop and in the Documents folder.

In the article below, Network Administrator will guide you how to synchronize files and folders on Desktop and Document on macOS Sierra operating system with iCloud.

Steps to sync Desktop and Document with iCloud on MacOS Sierra:

Step 1:

If you use Apple's interactive desktop platform to change the system, you'll have to familiarize yourself with System Preferences. First load System Preferences by going to System Preferences via / Applications or using Spotlight search to find its location.

Step 2:

When the System Preferences window appears, click iCloud to access all options on the macOS Sierra configured with iCloud.

Step 3:

On the iCloud window, you will see iCloud Drive listed here. Click on the Options button on the right side of iCloud Drive.

Step 4:

At this time, a window will appear with options for configuring iCloud Drive.

Make sure the Desktop & Documents Folders folder is checked for selection. By default this folder is not selected.

Step 5:

Finally select Done to exit the iCloud Drive preferences window. Next is to exit the System Preferences window.

macOS Sierra will upload and sync all the files and folders found in the Desktop and Documents folder with other devices like iPhone, iPad, .

If you use another Mac version, you log in with your iCloud account, then open a new Finder instead of clicking iCloud Drive in the left pane.

There you will find the Desktop and Documents folder and all the files and folders on the Mac when you enable this option.

There you will find Desktop and folder documents with all files and folders from the Mac that you enable this option. If you enable sync on the second Mac, the Desktop and Documents folder will be 'duplicated' on both Macs.
