.:.impossible Posted November 13, 2014 Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 I'm hoping someone here can help me out. Shawn? Last night, I upgraded my iCloud storage to 200GB to free up some hard drive space. I have drag/dropped about 16 folders from various locations and my iPhoto Library totaling 140GB on my Macintosh HD to my iCloud Drive with the expectation that I would see an increase in Free Space. This is not the case. In fact, I seem to have less Free Space than I had last night... I'm wondering if the migration process takes time and there is not way to monitor progress? When I log in to the computer under my wife's username, I am still showing 5GB even though the account has been set up as Family. MacBook Pro 15-inch, Mid 2009 OSX Yosemite I should note, when I look at the iCloud drive capacity on my phone, I am showing 124GB. That is not at all what the laptop tells me. I have a time machine capsule set up, but am hesitant to delete files from the macbook! I have two young children and very little time to do the requisite research that I was once able to keep up with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.:.impossible Posted November 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 It seems the only way to monitor progress is through the iPhone settings>Icloud>storage>Manage storage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ornette Posted November 15, 2014 Report Share Posted November 15, 2014 Drag/drop default is copy not move. You need to delete the files from your Mac. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
