since a couple of days the icloud drive seems to be "stuck". The symbol in the sidebar in finder doesn't go away (pie chart). It looks like it still sycning.
What can I do to find out at which files it is potentially stuck?
Best Answer
Go to the Terminal and type:
killall bird
Check if this fixes your issue. If not, go back to Terminal and type:
cd ~/Library/Application\ Support
rm -rf CloudDocs
Then immediately restart.
For 300gb of files, I had to wait an hour for anything to show up in the iCloud folder, and 4 hours for the sync to finish.
If ~/Downloads/.localized does not exist, try creating it:
touch ~/Downloads/.localized
When the OS language is not English, there is normally an empty file named .localized inside each directory like ~/Downloads/ that has a localized name, and you can disable using localized names by deleting .localized files.
