Decided to continue the conversation here. I’m going to try creating the Notenik folder by myself as suggested because the issue persists.

Cloud Notenik container could not be found at /Users/----/Library/Mobile Documents/iCloud~com~powersurgepub~notenik~shared/Documents?

Attempt to create iCloud container for Notenik threw an error: Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=513 “You don’t have permission to save the file “Documents” in the folder “iCloud~com~powersurgepub~notenik~shared”.” UserInfo={NSFilePath=/Users/------/Library/Mobile Documents/iCloud~com~powersurgepub~notenik~shared/Documents, NSURL=file:///Users/------/Library/Mobile%20Documents/iCloud~com~powersurgepub~notenik~shared/Documents, NSUnderlyingError=0x60000024d6e0 {Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=13 “Permission denied”}}

By the way, that log still shows after I create the folder manually.

Now I get the following error after following the prompts to create a collection with iCloud.

So I think I fixed it. What happened was that I deleted everything in my iCloud folder using the iCloud website. While doing that I deleted the default iCloud container for Notenik and was able to restore.

Fortunately this worked, however now I’m worried about the other apps that used containers. And what could have happened if I never realized this?

Maybe after the limbo state of files when you delete them and you are still able to recover them, and they are permanently deleted the issue fixes itself.

Well, I’m glad you were able to get it working, although I’m confused as to what happened and why you had problems in the first place. Sorry the whole thing was not more straightforward.
