I just installed my unit with wireless. It lists my computer. I entered my Windows 7 username and password. It won’t take it. Keeps advising me that I’ve got a wrong username or password but I know this is not so. What is it I can do?
You probably have Microsoft live essentials or live sign-in assistant installed.
I have exactly the same problem. Rolling back as mentioned. As it is not removable and only a rollback to a prior restore seems to sometimes work for some users,
I think WD needs to address this ASAP . I see LOTS of requests for added firmware features, which I will not say are frivolous, but which are not core issues. This is a core issue
ya I have this exact same problem. And it has only occurred recently … huge pain
For what I use my WD TV for this problem literally renders it useless
Yes, I have a similar problem. I am asked for an account name and pasword, but have never set any, so all is over before it startst???
Not necessarily.
It will ALWAYS ask for a User ID and password.
If you don’t have password-protected sharing enabled, and your shares are shared with “Everyone,” you use the User ID “anonymous” and a null password.
I had the same problem. Finally I did the following.
When it ask for a username and password, enter administrator for user and leave the password blank.
On my computer it didnt even have an administrator account. Go figure. Hope this helps people.
