I have the same issue – it’s never avialble for my macbook pro to do the automatic backups (time machine) in the background or from my phone for the auto-backup of photos. Very frustrating. The only time I can access anything or do any backups is if i unplug the device to reboot it. Then it’ll stay on for maybe 24 hours, if that, and then it goes offline again. Does anyone have a solution for this?
@dtphonehome please collect the system logs at the end of your day (not just after a reboot) and send those logs to support so that we can check your devices system state.
Thank you. I’ll do this, however it has to come after a reboot because it will be offline otherwise. Hopefully they give more response than the others have suggested they offer.
Thanks for reaching out.

It is happening here too. It was working fine before the firmware update.
Now it is taking ages to finish indexing, and after a while, it goes offline. I have to reboot the device and the index starts again…
This nightmare will never finish!!! Wish I had never updated.
How can we fix this??

It is so bad that they don’t give us any support. I am sure this is a common problem…
I really need the files from the cloud to work. How can I do it if the thing keeps going offline?
I sort of get this feeling they have done the update to kill off older cloud drives to force you to but new ones. There is no support and I’m sure they will be very aware of this issue but choose not to comment. Customer service is appalling.
