I have a network from which I can access my itunes on the mybooklive duo via an old Mac but with the new windows 8 PC I can’t get it working. The drive doesn’t show up as a network location only the media server and I can’t direct itunes to use the existing library that still works from the Mac.
I have tried WD Link and Discovery. WD Link shows the ip address at the top but no folders or drives below.
Discovery only shows my c: drive.
I can connect through Mycloud and I can see the files. I have tried every sharing option, network permission etc I can think of and all the hours of google haven’t helped.
The device should be displayed as a network resource. Check your firewall and Workgroup settings, and ensure you are using a Private/Work network with Network Discovery “On” as opposed to a Public network.
It says it can’t find it or connect to it. I can see it as a device on the router and the ip address is shown there.
I also tries pugging in a new external hard drive to the pc, not a NAS device and windows doesn’t see it as a device either. It knows it’s connected because I have the option to safely eject it from the taskbar at the bottom of the screen but in explorer it doesn’t show so I can’t use that either.
