Access denied after update

tried the WD expert suggestion and various reboots, exactly the same as others, can see the drive in WD quickveiw, and via windows explorer but as soon as I run WD SmartWare (oxymoron) it says drive locked and whatever I type in (I have never set a user name so assume it is admin, although I have tried my e-mail address, WDLiveBook and other users names that I have used in the past on other things as well) and any of the passwords I use to access via dashboard or web it says authentication failed! Please sort soonest

Please can someone from WD send some other suggesitons or a fix so we can actually use the MBL properly. Otherwise, this purchase has been a waste of time.

Thanks nfodiz.

Think the update has solved the issue (fingers crossed).
