I am replacing the previous admin of this device. I'd like to add my email address and remove theirs. Their email address appears in the "Permissions" column, but it does not appear in the list of ...

Hello axiomcrs,
When you login to the ReadyCloud portal, make sure you are using the account that has admin right, it should be the one that is set as "signed in as" in the admin page's Cloud > ReadyCloud. Once logged in, check under Manage if the account that you want to remove it listed. If it is not, reboot the NAS and check if you get the same results.
Do you have files stored to the ReadyCloud home shares? If none or you have backed up the files stored to the ReadyCloud home shares you may also try leaving ReadyCloud from the admin page. This, however, will delete the ReadyCloud users you have added as well as their home shares which will delete the files stored to them also (that is why I asked if you have files stored to the ReadyCloud home shares or if you have backed them up). So, before deciding to push the Leave button of Cloud > ReadyCloud, make sure you have no important files stored to the ReadyCloud users' shares or if you do have then just make sure you have full backup. :)

Hello axiomcrs,
Did you already reboot the NAS? What's the firmware version? Please also check if UPnP is enabled under System > Settings.

Hello axiomcrs,
Do you have another ReadyCloud account that you try to use and test if you get the same error message?
