Since upgrading to Readycloud v1.12 and FW 6.5 I cannot sync folders to my PC.

I have migrated my Readycloud account to the myNetgear account, and updated the interface and the system FW. I can access the folders and read and write, but the sync funtion no longer works.

 

Also, after migrating my account my product registrations did not transfer.

 

OS: Windows 10

PC: i7 4790 quad core

    Hello NWWA,

     

    Welcome to the community!

     

    Did you enter myNetgear account (email address format) and its password when signing in?

     

    Regards,

      Yes, I migrated my account successfully. I used the email and password associated with my Readycloud account and upgraded to mynetgear account. I received an onscreen message that the migration was succesful.

      Yet when I attempt to sync the folders to my PC I get a message "offline (readycloud is not available).

      Why should this matter, I am syncing to my PC not a cloud account?

        Hello NWWA,

         

        Are you on the network where the NAS is? Please also try going to the admin page, get to Cloud tab then click Settings for ReadyCloud,  make sure Use Proxy settings is not marked then click Security, make sure Encryption is enabled.

         

        Regards, 

  • Hi Jenn and NWWA, 

    for a few weeks I am new to the NAS-world, but I am somewhat experienced with IT-stuff for a while now..

    I have read your conversation above, since I have the same exact behavior observed at my systems.

     

    I can neither sync an existing share down to any of my machines (which are of the following: Win 7 pro, Win 10 pro, Mac OS X 10.11.6) with none of the connected accounts of mine (neither the registration- or "admin"-account, nor an invitated "low-rights" account) nor sync (uploading) a local folder as a new share to the NAS (e. g. "Backup Mac Folder"-function in the ReadyCLOUD App for Mac).

    As described above, the connection to the NAS works fine; I can click on any of the available shares and the filebrowser on each machine opens up showing the content.

     

    Has a solution to this problem been found yet?

     

    Kind regards, Wicky

      In addition to my preceding post I need to clearify the "upload"-sync-problem; it occurs in another way then the "download"-sync problem. The following error-message is shown as a floating window as well in Windows Systems as in Mac OS...

       

      An error occured during synchronization

      Failed to upload file: <filename>, reason: Service Unavailable
