Hello, I'm having problems downloading the Windows version of ReadyNAS Photos 2.0 RC1 using the link in this post http://www.readynas.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=58&t=28567.Can anyone help please?Thanks James

So since you're looking for Photos I software, I guess you have a NV+ v1 (How to tell whether I have a Duo v1 or Duo v2 or NV+ v1 or NV+ v2)?http://www.readynas.com/downloadsNetGear wrote:ReadyNAS Photos I Desktop SoftwareIf you’ve enabled ReadyNAS Photos option in Frontview, you will need the ReadyNAS Photos Desktop software to export photos to the ReadyNAS from your PC, Mac, or Linux system. The link for this software is available from Frontview.Welcome to the forum!

Hi mdgm,Yes I have the NV+ v1 model.I've managed to download the photos software via the Frontview link, but after installing it, it says it's version 1.1?? I was hoping to install version 2.0 so that I could organise my photo albums alphabetically.Regards

Considering that Photos I is being EOL'd (http://www.readynas.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=58&t=60875), I guess they've pulled the non-production software

Yea, I feared this. Guess I'll just have to use what I've got.

Hello all,We apologize for the inconvenience caused.We have identified issues with downloading ReadyNAS Photos 2.0 RC1 and have fixed it.Can you please try downloading the software ones again.-Minerva.

Sorry I don't know if Im right on this topic but I couldn't find a better matching.
Accidentally I deleted Photos from my RND2000 and am desperate to find one to download.
Can anyone please help me?
Thank you so much in advance :worship:

I have version Firmware 4.1.8. From what I am reading, that means that I cannot use the Photo functionality. Is there another way I can use this device to share photos with family members that are not close by?

Not sure its a "dud" exactly. It has a lot of features that are still missing on the duo v2 - though it is slower, and as you point out, it doesn't support the new Readynas photos 2.

If you exchange it, the models to look at are the ultra/ultra plus/pro 2 and the duo v2. I like the ultra/ultra plus/pro lines myself.

So if I have v1 and Frontview has a link to ReadyNas photos that is EOLifed - have I been sold a dud?

Based on the LInk and the "soft" check and the "hard" check, I would appear to have the v1.

Only the v1 would link to that software as Photos II (the version of ReadyNAS Photos on the Duo v2) is completely managed via the web browser. So you must have a Duo (v1). Photos I (the version of ReadyNAS Photos installed on the Duo v1) is EOL'd.

Don't presume, check using the link above. Regrettably you cannot trust the label on the unit.

What does How to tell whether I have a Duo v1 or Duo v2 or NV+ v1 or NV+ v2 indicate you have?

Some v1 units had a sticker on them with a "v2". Confusing I know but at that time NetGear presumably wasn't planning to release a new product called a Duo/NV+ v2.
