iCloud Drive can strip (meta)data from your documents
- jtbayly 9y agoI’ve always been hesitant about trusting iCloud. I remember losing metadata with early cloud storage and networked backup solutions across platforms. This shows me I was entirely justified in doubting the reliability. Anybody else able to confirm this?
- stephenr 9y agoIs this really an iCloud issue? My first thought would be its a HFS+ vs APFS issue.
- jtbayly 9y agoWell, the impression I got was that if you copied the file by flash drive, for example, that you didn’t lose any metadata. But it’s a good question, and I don’t know. I updated both of my computers, so I can’t test either way.
