New RN202 with a Mac Questions
I am just setting up a new ReadyNAS 202 and am having several issues. I have set up the admin account and also set myself up as a separate account as a "User" so I can interact from my Mac as a regular user but now I'm questioning if I need that account since I see that my admin ID (the ID I used to create the ReadyCloud account) has a private Home folder already. I have also set up a user account for my wife but I cvan't figure out how to connect her account to ReadyCloud. In looking on line, it says there should be a place to enter her email address since it is already in the system but the only place to enter her email is to invite her for full access but that results in an error message that her email is already in the system. How do I get her remote access as a user registered in the system? How does she actually "sign in" to the system the first time so that her private Home folder is created? Finally (for now), I have the ReadyNAS listed on the Finder sidebar three times under the Shared section. One is for the SMB connection, one for the AFP protocol and one is just a general connection. Is there a way to remove two of them? Also, none of them show the private Home folder that is set up as part of my admin ReadyCloud account. I've been trying to figure this out for a couple fo days and I'm pretty frustrated. Any help would be appreciatred. Thanks.Solved
