NV+ Unable to Connect on Mac running Sierra
I see my NV+ in finder. The logins work via the web. However, only guest connects on the Mac. I have tried forcing both SMB and AFP connections. I get the error "There was a problem connecting to the server ..." Then it says "Check the server naem or IP address, and then try again. "
I haqve a lot of data on the NV+ and it is now inaccessible other than via the web interface and even that only shows the media folders and not the user home folder.
I tried that and it didn't work. I verified the credentials by logging in via a web browser.
I tried updating the device via the web and it didn't find an update but I found one online. I was at 4.1.13. I downloaded 4.1.15 and updated. That fixed the issue.

In Finder as it starts connecting, you should see "Connect As", can you click that and change the user credentials to your username/password for the NAS?
