iCloud Drive

The iCloud Drive, new in Yosemite, is Apple’s version of Dropbox. It’s a folder, present on every Mac, iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch, that lists whatever you’ve put into it—an online “disk” that holds 5 gigabytes (more, if you’re willing to pay money).

The iCloud Drive is a perfect place to put stuff you want to be able to access from any Apple gadget, wherever you go. It’s a great backup, too.

If you click Options (shown in Figure 17-8), you find two tabs. The first, Documents, lists all the Mac apps that have stored files or preference settings on your Drive. “Look Me Up by Email” is a list of apps that permit other iCloud members to find you by looking up your address.

You can read more about iCloud Drive on Meet iCloud.
