Hello
I am new on the forum.
I am using a WD My Cloud over the internet.
The first time I used the system it worked well. I could login to the cloud and mount My Book as a drive. I created a directory and uploaded a group of subdirectories and files to the directory. All was well I could open PDF files and TXT files but the Windows word files wanted a user name and password.
I discovered that I needed MyCloud desktop to open Windows files.
So I installed MyCloud desktop. I log on to the cloud but MyCloud desktop logged on to My Book without asking for a password. The windows files and all other files are quite usable.
Then I needed to do a backup to the cloud. I tried to map My Book as a drive. The system will not accept my password for My Book.
I have tried using a different computer to map the My Book as a drive and My Book will not accept the password.
However when I installed MyCloud desktop on the new computer I was able to log into the cloud and the desktop then logged into My Book without a password.
Now my question is how do I use the cloud as a receptacle for my backups without mapping it as a drive?
Thanks in advance
Phil P
