I want to allow friends and family to be able to access files I store on MyCloud for them. So I create a folder on my device using their email address and password. I then password protect the folder. But in order for them to access their folder, they have to login to wd2go.com using my details before they can access their folder.
Surely this can’t be right? Surely if I create an account on my device it should get mirrored on wd2go.com so that they can login and go straight to their shares?
If MyCloud doesn’t work like this then surely its a massive mistake on WD’s account as this is the way cloud storage should work.
If I’m doing something wrong or there is a specific way to do this that I’m not following, let me know.
When you create a user on the NAS and enable remote access for that user, they will receive an email leadin gthem to create an account on wd2go.com. You resend the email from the NAS UI. Check junk email if not received
Thanks for the reply. I’ve done that but when the user logs in and tries to access their shared folder from the drop down menu on the shared device page, they (eventually) get an error message saying the page isn’t available.
