Online backup services like iCloud or MozyPro are not a good idea for backing up VFP data.

Does that iCloud system tray program lock files when doing the sync? That might cause conflicts with Foxpro's locking.
You might wanna exclude the Foxpro data folder in that iCloud program, or move the data folder to somewhere else?

About the only thing I've noticed with their system is they run iCloud on their Windows 10 pc. It pops up about every 15 secs in the right hand system tray, to say it has synchronised some files.
My system has maybe 75 free standing dbf/fpt/cdx files. The corrupted history file only has about 10,000 records, where, on 2 occasions, 120 records have disappeared.
Does anyone wish to comment.
