I have my desktop in the iCloud. On a regular basis, my iCloud comes to a point where it wants to upload every single file again, so it sets every existing file on "Waiting for upload", and takes 3 – 5 days to reupload everything. I don’t know what causes this, it comes out of the blue sometimes. During that time, I can’t copy files, and can’t open some programs like Xcode. How can I avoid this?

Okay, now it’s officially useless. It goes to 400,000 files, then back to 1,000, and then back again to 400,000, and so on, taking about 2 days each iteration. If there is no solution, I will just cancel iCloud
