may you can help me with my problem.
I created a container in my icloud using VeraCrypt. I also installed icloud on my windows pc to have access to my data from different places/workstations/OS'. Now I can see the container, can open it and can store files into it. So far, so good.
But now I have the problem, that the files I stored on my windows pc into the container aren't visible on the mac. Like the container isn't up to date. And after I opened the container on the mac, the file isn't available on the pc anymore. It feels like icloud on windows can't detect, that something in the container has been changed and so the container doesn't have to be synchronised, but on the mac the change will be recognized. I can see any file in windows, which I copied on the mac into the container.
And to complement: without the container all files in the icloud are available and synchronised on both systems.
Perhaps there is anyone who can confirm this or have solution, how to synchronize on both systems correctly.
I'm using Win 10 on a laptop and an older Macbook with Yosemite. iCloud on the PC is version 11.4, VeraCrypt is V1.24. And I tried FAT and extFat as file system. The container has a fixed size. (I will try dynamic size now, but thats not what I wanted)
EDIT: okay, dynamic size is only available with NTFS... didn't work either.
Thanks and have a nice weekend!
