How to Sync iWork between iCloud and Mac

iClould was introduced by Apple for awhile already and of course it is quite popular now. iCloud allows you to sync photos, videos, music, iWork and other stuffs to the iCloud account as well as pushing them to your iDevices. Everything is done in an automatic manner but something is wrong with Mac. The automatic sync won’t work between Mac and iCloud and you have to do it manually. However there is way that you can do to auto-sync data between iCloud and Mac.

Here are the instructions to auto-sync iWork between iCloud and Mac:

1. Holding down the Option key, access the Finder’s Go menu and select Library. This takes you to the (invisible in OS X Lion) Library folder in your Home directory.

2. Scroll down to locate the Mobile Documents folder. Create an alias of the folder and drag it to whatever location you want for easy access. I put it on my Desktop. Optionally, you might rename the folder alias—to something like iCloudSync. You are now ready to start syncing.

3. Double-click the folder alias to reveal its contents. What you will see depends upon what exactly you have previously set up to sync via iCloud. Assuming you previously enabled iCloud syncing for iWork apps, you should at least see three folders, one for each iWork app: com~apple~Keynote, com~apple~Numbers, and com~apple~Pages. Inside each folder will be two subfolders: Documents and iWorkPreviews.

4. Open the Documents folder inside the application folder that matches the document type you want to sync. For example, to sync a Pages document, go to com~apple~Pages -> Documents.

5. Via the Finder, drag the icon of the desired Pages document to this folder (drag a copy of the document, if you want to preserve the original as a backup).
