    Hi

    For various reasons I have 2 iCloud accounts. So what I was thinking I could do was to have iCloud Syncing on my main computer and then use Nearby sync on my iOS device.

    Would this work. I tried it and it synced from the computer to the iOS device , but was not working from iOS back to computer.

    Thanks,
    Andrew

    Are we talking about different documents or the same documents syncing both with iCloud and Nearby? If so, no, you shouldn’t sync the same documents with two different sync services. Pick one per document.

    Make sure that your Mac is set to accept incoming connections if you have your firewall enabled and also your iOS device has your Mac added to it and your Mac has your iOS device added to it on the Nearby sync settings screens.
