Numbers lost changes after update of OS to fix offline issue I have a numbers file on my iCloud and wanted to collaborate on it with my wife. It showed that it is offline and I need to update before collaborating. Then it asked for OS to be updated. I've done those, but now the changes done while offline are lost and I can see only the version stored in iCloud.. Going to Revert to menu .. no recent versions found. I was expecting either to merge the offline changes into iCloud once it was online, or to have both files available.. Any ideas if I can recover the offline version?

Unable to retrieve a previously saved version of a file from iCloud Drive Dear community, I have an excel file saved in icloud drive which I access everyday. Today suddenly it stopped opening with an error Excel cannot open the file ’CC Bills 2023.xlsx’ because the file format or file extension is not valid. I have asked Apple Help and Senior Advisor's help too - to recover a previously saved version of the file They clarified they can not retrieve any old versions of this file Also, the other way suggested - Open using NUMBERS - Select Browse all versions and open previously saved files - also did not work - as the Numbers app becomes Unresponsive as soon as I select browse all versions I am wondering, isn't it the basic feature of a drive - to retrieve the previous versions of the file - that too just 24hr old? Do you know any work arounds for this

NUMBERS APP NOT ALLOWING FILES TO BE AUTO-SAVED OR SAVED SINCE INSTALLING SONOMA A Numbers file being worked on and stored on my desktop before Sonoma 14.1.1 now will not autosave or allow me to save. Says I am not authorized. Went to File>get info, and unlocked the padlock, still not allowing. Restarted with padlock left open, was locked when I did Get info again. Rarely use numbers, How do I fix?

No, you won’t lose your data. Data is not stored within the application.
