Hi,

I recently started using iCloud for my primary work file set.When I try to open an iCloud item, QS acts like the volume is missing.

I imagine this is because the volume is technically missing because it's in the cloud.

Is there anything I can do to make those folders actionable in QS again?

Thanks!

There’s no “iCloud” item, but the individual documents stored in
iCloud should be in the catalog. (Make sure it’s enabled at
Preferences → Catalog → User → iCloud Documents)

You should also be able to access them by selecting the parent
application and hitting the right arrow key.

I think I found the problem. QS is still looking for items at the old ~/Documents location on my internal HDD. 

I went to the source in catalog and pressed rescan button, but those items are still there. 

Can I make it forget those items without starting my catalog from scratch? Or, can I delete my catalog and rebuild it without losing the weighted selection of my most-used items?

Thanks!

Best,
Josh

In the same place Rob referred you to - Preferences → Catalog → User - you should uncheck the ~/Documents item and that should exclude that location from the QS Catalog.

I knew I was missing something easy. 

Thank you for your selfless work on this App. Even though I don’t think about it for years, I’d be so much less productive without it. 

Best,
Josh
