iCloud Drive files do not show on new Mac

Hi,


I have a Mac mini which contains all of my files and syncs with iCloud Drive

I've bought a new MacBook Pro, but now even though iCloud Drive and Apple account all set up on the new MacBook Pro, I cannot see any file from iCloud Drive in its folder.


Any ideas?


Thanks,

Asaf


MacBook Pro 13”, macOS 10.14

Have you gone to Finder/Preferences/Sidebar/Favorites to check iCloud Drive so, it shows in the Finder Sidebar?


Try going to System Preferences/iCloud and stop iCloud Drive syncing by unchecking the box. Wait a couple of minutes, then check syncing. Allow time for the  sync to complete.


Last resort - have you tried signing out of iCloud and then sign back in?
