I start the Download and about 80% of the space fills up with blue background then it stops. I have been told by the WD Chatline that they dont support WD Back Up any longer ? This is a brand new My Passport !. They have told me I must use Acronis True Image For Western Digital which I have downloaded but not tried to use. Can anyone give me any advise ? Is MY Passport any good without the App ?
LATER-I switched on my brain after I posted above and remembered the WD download would not work until I agreed with sharing . So I agreed with sharing and my WD Back Up installed however it is now saying No Back Up Targets Found ! I understand this is a problem shared by others any advice much appreciated.
