For apps that support Documents in the Cloud, all you have to remember is which app (or apps) opens the type of file you want to work on. From then on, iCloud manages everything, storing any changes you make back up to the cloud, and pushing down those updates to every device you have logged into your account. Create a Keynote (http://www.imore.com/keynote) presentation on your iPad at home, it's ready and waiting when on your Mac when you get to work.</p> <!--break--> <ul><li><a href="#documents-cloud-enable">How to enable Documents in the Cloud on your iPhone or iPad[/url]</li> <li><a href="#documents-cloud-create">How to create a new iCloud document on your iPhone or iPad[/url]</li> <li><a href="#documents-cloud-delete">How to delete a document from Documents in the Cloud[/url]</li> <li><a href="#documents-cloud-existing">How to get your existing documents into Documents in the Cloud[/url]</li> </ul><h2><a name="documents-cloud-enable" id="documents-cloud-enable">[/url]How to enable Documents in the Cloud on your iPhone or iPad</h2> <ol><li>Launch the <strong>Settings app</strong> on your iPhone or iPad. </li> <li>Tap on <strong>iCloud</strong>. </li> <li>Tap on <strong>Documents &amp; Data</strong>. </li> <li>Turn <strong>On</strong> the option for <strong>Documents &amp; Data</strong> at the top. </li> <li>You can also specify underneath that which apps you'd like to be able to store documents and data in the cloud.

Some may even offer local options instead of storing them in Documents in the Cloud, and you may be able to revert to that option too.</p> <h2><a name="documents-cloud-existing" id="documents-cloud-existing">[/url]How to get your existing documents into Documents in the Cloud</h2> <p>Once you've got Documents in the Cloud turned on, you may realize that you have files on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac that you'd like to sync up to the cloud. On iOS, it's a simple process. After you launch Pages, Keynote, or Numbers, you're prompted about Documents in the Cloud and whether or not you'd like to use it. Just say yes and you're all set. However, documents you already have saved on your Mac will need to be moved over. Luckily the process is pretty simple and we've already got a guide that's got you covered.</p> <ul><li>How to move existing iWork documents to Documents in the Cloud (http://www.imore.com/how-get-pages-numbers-and-keynote-files-your-mac-icloud)</li> </ul><h2>How to get more help with iCloud</h2> <p>If you still need help with setting up or using Documents in the Cloud on your iPhone, iPod touch, iPad, or Windows or Mac PC, or any other iCloud feature, head on over to our iCloud Forum (http://forums.imore.com/icloud-forum/) and ask away!</p> <p>Note: Originally published, April 2012.
