![]() ![]() I think that that drive can do what you want but I’m not sure - seems everyone exaggerates their capabilities. Only thing was that although AVCHD movie files are compatible with the Zyxel NAS themselves, Polkast isn’t. I was looking into that drive myself because Polkast can do video thumbnail previews on ALL devices which I really want. The Zyxel NSA 310, 320, and 325 all use Polkast for accessing files on your NAS. I’d also be very interested to know if anyone has a NAS drive, with cloud support, where true editing is possible … I think it would seem that the Buffalo product works properly … but I may be wrong. ![]() It is only when you open the file directly on local network that you see the edits are not present, If you then make changes on local network, then look at the file again remotely … any edits you made remotely are lost instead you pick up the version that was edited on local network.īut if anyone finds anything different, then I’d be really interested. Trouble is when you edit using WD My Cloud, it all looks like file is being updated, especially as when you re-open the file (remotely) all edits are present. However i will forward this to our team to see if this is possible to implement.Ĭertainly it would seem from the above comments that the support guy believes editing, then saving file back to NAS drive will not work using the WD My Cloud app. We apologize for the inconvenience but this is all due certain technicalities that this is not possible. However what i could do is use a file manager like Astro file manager and copy this file over regular network share and override this. If you upload by using the upload functionality within the WD2go this will not override the original file. So once this is edit you can only safe this to the local drive. The reason of this is that the 3e party software that is able to edit the file can not use/see the path where the original file is located as this can only be mounted by the WD2Go as of security reasons. I am sorry to inform but this is not possible. I assume I am allowed to repeat the words that the support guy put in his first email… It would be great if someone else could try it … please. However, I’m very interested to hear what you say. I origially used to use wd2go app as well - this is where I first saw the problem … on Android. I did raise a support request to WD, but that seems to have dried up … they said they’d phone me, but never did. Therefore, again, I would be extremely grateful if others could confirm or otherwise that edits are not saved back to the WD My Cloud. If Dropbox can do it with their app, surely WD can also?īut perhaps BOTH my devices are not working properly? But then why would it not even work with the connected Dropbox? (But at the risk of repeating myself … if I use the Dropbox app itself … no problem! Edits saved beautifully) This same limitation applies when I connect my Dropbox to the WD My Cloud app … edits are not saved back to the Dropbox cloud. I had previously lost many edits as a result of this massive limitation. In truth this wouldn’t be so bad if the WD My Cloud application informed the user of this. The changes NEVER get uploaded back to My Cloud. Ĭertainly if I try using any office application on my tablet (Nexus 7) or my smartphone (HTC Desire), the edits are only ‘saved’ locally on the device - actually within a temporary folder. ![]() I would be extremely grateful if someone would confirm that if you edit any office document (doc, docx, xls, xlsx, etc.) on a mobile device and save the changes, that the edits do NOT get saved onto the My Book Live device itself. But having not got to the bottom of it, I wanted to try again. ![]() I know this is a similar post to one I raised previously. This is certainly the case with Skydrive, Google Documents, Dropbox etc. My understanding of ‘The Cloud’ is that you can edit files on the cloud and the edits are then seen across all your devices. I believe the answer is when it is WD My Cloud. ![]()
