edcyn/OT:
Our iMac "completely" failed in 2017 (nothing retrievable per Apple).
We replaced it with another/like iMac (the old one was 7 years old).
Approx. one year ago my wife was able to retrieve all of our lost photos, documents et cetera, when she accidentally discovered that they had been stored in The Cloud (think she was doing something on FaceBook @ the time).
Not a computer person, but glad my wife eventually figured it out (and pissed that Apple didn’t bother to advise/look).
