RNDU4000 Adding and editing a share
When creating a new share you get an option if it should be public or not. 1/ Where do I find that setting after share is created , if I want to change it ?
Sorry, I mistakenly gave you OS-6 instructions.
On your NAS, select the icon in the CIFS column for one share. There are access rights there (both the top section, and scrolling down to the "advanced cifs" permissions)- you'd need two screen shots for those. If the Macs are using AFP, you'll also need to look on the AFP tab. I don't use AFP, so I can't give guidance there.
There are some additional settings at the beginning of the "advanced options" tab ("advanced share permissions" section).
To show a screenshot that you understand I need to change language to English.
I tried that, choosed English (Unicode), but its still Swedish, even after reboot.
This shows one share that works with the MAC computers for both read and write.
Do I really need to enable Guest mode to have the MACs access to write ?Shares Advanced

This could be the NAS admin account, or it could be a user account that you create. You'd have to enter that username/password on the mac: https://support.apple.com/kb/PH25269?locale=en_US
Your advanced options settings look fine.
