Same thing happened to me. I lost all my files. 2nd time for me. The first time I lost so many important documents and photos (from a camera). This time I found the documents by clicking off, on the iCloud. I am ready to throw the while thing away. I can’t afford to loose more files. Is Apple is trying to protect me from myself.... they need to stop. I’m ready to go back to Windows. What do I try next? How do I keep from having this happen again?
