>From the mac side, I did the following to transfer files. Open finder. Press command K to connect to a server. Type smb://wdmycloud and press enter. Note that if you cleverly changed the name of your drive you’ll have to replace this instruction with the new name. Enter your username and password. When asked to mount your volumes, say OK. Back in finder, you should automatically be taken to the computer folder where you should see three new volumes. One is called public, and that is where your files go unless you have set up your account to let you access a custom private folder.
>From there, it’s just a matter of copying and pasting. On the mobile side, I’ve only gotten as far as agreeing to the licence terms and looking at some of the initial setup screens. I want to log in by token, which takes some extra setup. Also, I haveent’ gotten all the files mounted yet. That’s got to take priority for the next day or two because the drive that currently holds the files is on it’s last pins.
