Re: [iPad] using iCloud to transfer files between my computer and my iPad

 

You aren't the only one with some basic questions about iCloud, David!  I may be able to shed some light on one question you have.  If you open your iCloud account on www.icloud.com you will see the  main iCloud screen with five icons.  The one on the right, iWork, is the one that synchronizes Numbers and Pages.  Try clicking on it.
 
The problem I am having is that I seem to have two iCloud accounts, each with a different user/account name and separate password.  I have no idea how to get these two together.  On my devices I see the first account, and on the Internet and my PC the second one.  (The second one, by the way, is the one that was formerly Mobile Me, while the first one is my Apple ID account.)  I tried calling Apple for support, but so far have only found out how to see various things on my devices, and even they aren't always visible.

Subject: [iPad] using iCloud to transfer files between my computer and my iPad
 
I'm confused about iCloud.  I thought it worked like DropBox -- tell
iPad apps I want them to sync data with iCloud, install the iCloud
control panel on my Windows computer, and then from the iCloud control
panel on my computer I can download the data I want from iCloud.
 
I can see the data in my iCloud Manager on my Windows PC but I can't see
how to get that data into any of my programs on my PC.
 
What am I doing wrong?  Am I misunderstanding the purpose of iCloud?
What can I do to easily transfer data from iPad to PC without using
iTunes, if the apps don't work with DropBox.  I'm specifically thinking
of the apps Numbers and Pages, which don't appear to work with DropBox
from the iPad.
 
Thanks for any insights anybody might have.
