My Cloud Devices How to use for remote access

[RLMWD]

On the WD My Cloud web manager for my user name I have two devices:

Mac OS 10.9.5

Windows 7

Those are not devices but OS’s for my mulitple Laptops, some PC, some Mac.

Can someone help me understand what these WD Cloud Devices are and why I do not need one for each of my PC’s for remote access.

I can not seem to find anywhere an explanation.

Thanks

A ‘MyCloud Device’ is simply a thing that is registered as being allowed to remotely access your MyCloud.

I am surprised that you don’t need to register each device. Have you tried remotely accessing the MyCloud from all of the PCs?

So why are OS’s showing up as Devices.  I find this whole area of remote access confusing.  If I have 2 Mac Laptops, and 2 Dell Laptops that I travel with should each one be listed under devices.

Not sure what is going on.

You are not alone…

Both the old (pre-OS3) manual and the new OS3 manual say that each device needs an activation code.
