Please tell me there’s a way to create new files directly into WD My Cloud remotely from my laptop.
I have downloaded the desktop app and can access my files, drag new files into it, but if I create a new document (e.g. in word/pages) do I really have to save it locally first and then drag it in? That’s extremely annoying and not very useful. Is there a way around this?
You can try to access the device remotely with web access and see if you can create a document that way. Just try to go to www.wdmycloud.com and log in access your drive and see if it could be possible.
If I log in through the browser, it just shows me a page explaining how to download the desktop app or mobile apps.
I have downloaded the desktop app and can access my files and copy/upload files onto my cloud, but I can’t create new documents directly. This means I have to create new documents locally onto my drive, then copy that file and then delete it (as I don’t want duplicates). It’s a tedious process - a 3 step process. I was hoping this would be a good replacement for dropbox.
