ICloud – How to access TextEdit documents saved in iCloud on a PC

icloudpctexteditwindows

I use TextEdit to store a number of notes for me, and now my Mac is in Apple repair, I can't access them.

  • How can I use a PC to access these notes?

  • Is it possible to use an iPad mini to access these notes?

What I've done so far

  1. I logged into http://icloud.com and didn't see my documents under any available application.

  2. I installed the iCloud app for PC and although I see the ability to sync "Mail, Contacts, Tasks with Outlook" and sync "bookmarks" and "photo stream" … none of them are "text files".

Best Answer

You can't.

TextEdit files can only be accessed from TextEdit (That's how iCloud storage is made). Therefore you'll need a Mac connected to your iCloud account.
