ReadyShare USB Drive - Unable to Write to Drive from MacBook Pro
I can connect to and read my files with no problem from the connected USB drive. My problem is when I try to write to the drive. First it asks me to log in. The only login it will accept is the user ...
Have you set up the desktop drive access by opening the share using Opt/K on the mac and SMB connect to the share? This should put a share drive icon on the desktop.
Any chance you have a different PC, like Windows to try this with?
I had already tried that but I tried it again just in case. I'm still getting the same error. Sadly I do not have another computer to try this out on. My MacBook Pro is a MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Late 2013), Processor: 2.6 GHz Dual-Core Intel Core i5, and 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 of Memmory. I don't know if that will help out but I wanted to provide any information that I can to help resolve the issue.
What OSX version is the Mac running?
Are you accessing the drive using this proces?
I am running macOS Big Sur version 11.6.1.
Yes. As far as I can tell I am accessing the drive per the link provided.
I also just disconnected the drive from the router and plugged it into my computer to verify that everything is working on the drive correctly. The drive is functioning how it should with no problems. After reconnecting it to the router the problem is back.
