iCloud Drive Sync takes a very long time on Mac OS 13.3.1

Hello,

I use MoneyDance on three computers and my iPhone. It's all one dataset that's about 73.5 MB in size.

The desktop apps take ages to synchronize. It literally can take up to ten minutes. Is this something normal? Is my data too large? I can't go on like this and will need to switch to another solution, which I would hate to do after all these years.

Thanks,
Raed

   What sync method?
   What Os version?
   How do you know it’s takes ages? What messages are you looking at?

   The only thing you can try is toolbox. Update mode. Advanced menu. Force refresh/push sync data.

   just a user - how fast/slow is your network? That can often cause problems.

   Oh and Stuart's advice is always useful.

   // Please reply above this line ================================================== From: dtd just a user - how fast/slow is your network? That can often cause problems. Oh and Stuart's advice is always useful. As to "which part is not clear" - it is clear... but which part of "we need more information to try to diagnose why it takes up to 10 minutes" is not clear to you?
