Nice adverts.  Little more than that, I’m afraid, and not very relevant in the context of this support forum.  More likely to wind people up than anything…

Is there one on how to SSH into your My Cloud and disable the crippling indexing services?

Hi guys, these are a couple of videos to help out new users. As you can see there are several videos that share some information on the common questions you see on the Community. Thanks for providing your feedback. 

Thanks for posting these. I can forward this link to my parents. This should be a good way for them to start getting hands-on with the device.

Just curious about capt paranoia’s question though: Can you SSH into this thing? If not, Im thinking maybe I can hook my raspberry pi to it and SSH in that way

I was thinking that I could plug my Raspberry Pi into it and use that as a go-between. But how would one disable or modify the indexing once thats achieved?

Thanks jubei04 for posting this. I think it will help a lot of people and answer some basic questions for all.

Love the one on “How to use the My Cloud iOS App.” It shows you how to access the files on the device, but shouldn’t they show you how to get the files up there in the first place?
