Hi i cannot seem to be able to change the passwords for users or time machine even though i am logged in as admin. Can anyone help? Thanks in advance

Can you tell us what NAS you have, and what firmware it is running?

Hi Stephen Thank you for helping im not sure what Firmware it is running on the overview page it says version 6.10.3 Regards Gary

Sorry forgot to say its a ReadyNAS 102

Are you using Active Directory or local NAS accounts? If you are using local NAS accounts, what happens when you go to the accounts page in the web ui, select the user, the choose settings, and change the user's password? Though I don't use Time Machine, my understanding of the setup is that it simply uses the user's account credentials.

Hi Stephen B I tried going into Users but it will not let me change the users paqssword? I can change the Admin password though?
