Search for Spreadsheet
« on: April 10, 2022, 05:41:06 AM »

Duh. I can’t find an iOS Numbers spreadsheet on my iPad. I can’t remember the name of it, which really doesn’t help matters but I perhaps only have about 50-100 spreadsheets in total, and I’d soon recognise it as I always use long descriptive meaningful filenames. I’m worried that it may have got deleted somehow. It should be in the iCloud, but if not then it will possibly be on my older iPad still if it somehow ended up not being in the iCloud for some reason.

Can anyone help me with advice on how do a complete search ? I’ve tried the iPadOS Files app and the Numbers spreadsheet manager.

I could perhaps try and guess what kind of words might be in the text in the file, but guessing the filename might be easier.

It’s a spreadsheet concerning DSL framing parameters, as defined in G.992.3 section 7.6. Can’t search for most of the mathematical symbols as they are just a single character (in upper case most often).

If somehow it has got deleted is there any chance of recovering it?

open your favourite browser, go to icloud.com, login, click iCloud Drive, then bottom right, 'recently deleted'

Thank you so much, what a superb tip.

No luck unfortunately. If it was deleted, perhaps it was too long ago. I looked through all the spreadsheets I could see in icloud.com too, no luck there either.

How stupid I am, what have I done with it. There are two other iPads to look into yet.

I’ll just have to recreate it, which will take forever.
