iCloud Genius Tips


Mail Rules let you apply criteria
to all incoming emails across
all of your devices, helping you
gather emails from a specific
person or organisation and then
filter them into sub-folders. The
only drawback is that you have to
remember to check these folders
to see the emails.

1


Access options
Go to iCloud.com, log into your
account and then click on ‘Mail’. Next, click
on the cog icon in the lower-left corner and
choose the ‘Rules’ option from the menu.

2


Add new rule
While in the Rules tab, click on ‘Add
a Rule’ and then create a new rule. You
will be able to set the rule criteria from the
menu of options available.

It is also worth knowing about these interesting things that you can do at iCloud.com

iCloud online secrets


As well as being able to access your files
and use the full suite of Apple iCloud apps
on any computer (even a Windows PC),
iCloud.com also allows you to do stuff
that you can’t do on a Mac or iOS device.
Here are some of our favourites, including
how to create new Mail rules so that your
emails automatically filter into specific
folders, which are synced to all of your
Apple devices.

RESTORE LOST FILES
If you accidentally delete files, contacts,
bookmarks or calendar items from your
iCloud account then you can restore
them through the iCloud website. Click
on ‘Account Settings’ and then scroll
down to the Advanced section and you
will see links that you can click on to
restore various items. You will need to
act fairly fast as these files are only kept
here for 30 days.
