since upgrading to Big Sur my home duo no longer appears as a drive, i downloaded the “discovery app” the app says that i have to “allow access” i have done that (to the best of my knowledge) and it doesn’t work.
i uninstalled the app, re installed it rebooted etc, nothing works, and, you can’t actually plug into the hard drive though the USB to access the drive (how stupid is that)
i can access my files through the web browser but, can not access the drive directly. i am working with large video files that take HOURS to move though the web when it took seconds before
it worked before as an available drive though my home network.
I have done that multiple times, I installed that app, from that article and tried to run it, when attempting to sign in to the drive my computer asks me to allow access from the “general settings”
I have done that, it will not sign into the drive or acknowledge that the drive even exists.
I have run the “uninstaller” for that app, then re installed it, I have rebooted my computer multiple times before and after un installing and re installing that app. I have emptied my trash bin, and re booted my computer.
It does not work.
That is why I posted this question.
Is there something else that can be done? I have no practical access to that drive. I can sign in through “my cloud” through the Internet but the speed is so slow that it takes 12hours to upload
