Reference

An export is not a backup

An export is a readable or tabular copy for another task. Coldbore iCloud Backup is the recovery path for restoring collection records and attachments.

Reference

CSV, HTML, and PDF for collection records

CSV suits table processing, HTML suits a readable copy, and PDF suits a fixed report. Pick the format that serves the recipient’s task.

Reference

Recorded value, purchase price, and appraisal

A purchase price records a transaction. A recorded value preserves a stated figure. An appraisal is a separate professional source with its own scope.

Reference

A collection record is not independent proof

Coldbore preserves the facts and sources you supply. Saving or exporting them does not independently verify ownership, authenticity, or legal status.

Reference

Record status is not legal compliance

A status describes the information or review you recorded. It cannot determine whether a firearm, document, storage choice, or activity meets legal requirements.

Reference

Understand Coldbore iCloud protection

Coldbore encrypts a backup before uploading it. CloudKit key protection also depends on the Apple Account’s data-protection setting.

Reference

A recovery backup and a live device view differ

A backup preserves a saved recovery point. It does not mean every device is showing every latest local change at that moment.

Reference

Offline access and recovery solve different tasks

Offline access lets you use records already on the device. A recovery backup helps when those local records are unavailable.

Reference

A range draft is not a posted session

A draft preserves entry progress. Review & post makes the session part of recorded history and updates connected records.

Reference

Restore Purchases does not restore your collection

Restore Purchases checks App Store membership access. Restore from iCloud recovers saved collection records and attachments.

Reference

Membership renewal does not control your free records

Membership adds four optional feature families. Canceling renewal or reaching expiry does not delete your collection.

Reference

Coldbore and Apple recovery keys have different jobs

A Coldbore key opens the matching collection backup. An Apple recovery method helps recover the Apple Account. Keep their labels and purposes distinct.

Reference

Erasing local records and deleting iCloud backups differ

Erase all removes local records and turns backup off on the device. Existing iCloud backups remain until you manage them separately.

Reference

A catalog image and a personal photo differ

A catalog image represents a model or category. Your personal photo documents the item in your own record.

Reference

Issue, expiry, and review dates mean different things

An issue date comes from a document. An expiry date states the source’s endpoint. A review date can be a choice you made.

Reference

An ammunition lot is not just a caliber label

A caliber label describes one characteristic. A lot record identifies the source and quantity you are tracking.

Reference

Recognized text is not the original document

OCR helps extract and find text. The original document remains the source for important dates, amounts, names, and identifiers.

Reference

Collection Pack and ordinary reports

Ordinary PDF reports stay free. Membership Collection Pack brings selected records and richer connected history into a dated preparation.

Reference

Purchase price and ownership cost differ

Purchase price is one transaction figure. Ownership cost adds the other costs you deliberately included, in a consistent currency.

Reference

Website privacy and app privacy have different scopes

The website serves public pages and browser-only tools. The app keeps your collection locally, with optional private iCloud Backup.

Reference

A saved plan and a posted session differ

A plan preserves future record selections. A posted session records activity and updates the connected history.

Reference

Configuration history and service history differ

A configuration record describes a dated recorded arrangement. A service entry records completed work. Keep both sources and dates clear.
