Many thanks to everybody who responded and encouraged me to keep the Synology drive. A friend came over to help. I can see the drives on the desktop now. I had installed everything correctly. I just didn't know I had to give myself permission to write to the shared folder.[?][?] Now I know. I love when that happens. -- Robin MacRostie *CHOREO* Graphic Consulting and Design for Effective Marketing 413.461.6655 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
