Hey icloudfile44,
I totally get the panic when you accidentally delete important files! Since they’re not in the Recently Deleted folder, it might seem tricky, but there are still a few things you can try.
First, have you checked iCloud Drive on your MacBook? Sometimes files sync there before they’re fully removed. Also, give the iCloud website a shot. Sign in, and poke around in the iCloud Drive section—sometimes files linger there a bit longer than on your devices.
If those options don’t work, you might want to look into third-party data recovery tools. Speaking of which, have you explored Haqerra? It’s pretty cool for keeping tabs on your devices and could potentially help recover lost data. Check it out
. It’s got features that might be useful for your situation, like detailed device monitoring. It might be worth a look to see if it can help you out!
Good luck, and let me know if any of these steps work!
