Can not access LS-WTGL from iPhone

[Livingdog]

   

After postiung this once before w no replies, I thought I'd try again.

I can access my LS Pro from any remote PC and smartphones, however, when I attempt to do so using my iPhone (which I could do without issue before updating to 3.09) I can not. I get "User is not allowed to access this share" error...

 

Does anyone have an idea?

   Same goes with the linkstation mini. Iphone won't work on that. Get same error.

This is usually an issue with access restrictions. Try adding a new share to the device with access restrictions turned off, and see if you can connect directly to that. If you can, try disabling any access restrictions on the shares you want to use.

As well, you can try adding a local user from the User Management page, and try logging on with those credentials. Sometimes that will make a difference.

OK... although I had tried that before, I went back again and changed permissions/restrictions to none... even tried all anonymous users... and still, no access to the share(s) (I have 3 setup, thus the purpose of restricted access to various users) and akthough those shares were all set up identically (Access Restrictions disabled), I still can not access them on the iPhone. Again, I've tested the access on (2) smartphones (both HTC's running winmo), an Apple MacBook Pro, and various (I work in an IT department) laptops/desktops running a) Linux, b) Windows (XP/Vista) and Apple OS Tiger.

Now, that being said, it is rather disheartening and strange that I had full capabilities (and I use them often in my photography business) to access all my shares on my iPhone before updating to 3.09, and now no matter what I've done, I get the same error ...

HI

 

ls mini V 1.06

 

just a trick that must be confirm to bypass the "user is not allowed to access this share" message

 Create à share folder without access restrictions, allow web access anonymously to this folder.

try to connect with safari to buffalonas.com, you get automatically on this folder and a login button is accessible...log with your login/password...and now you can access your datas without the "user is not allowed to access this share" message.

 

It works for me with IRIS browser, a SAFARI based browser for windows mobile...

 

Confim me if that works for you too !!!

   This works, but I really dont want to have a folder for nothing on my linkstation. I've had the same issue as all have posted here. I have an iPhone 3G that for some reason will not access my LS-CHL500L. It worked perfectly for months then everytime I tried to access I get "User account cannot access share". I just wanted to know if this is something thats going to be fixed or do I have to go a different route? And will the new iPhone App, I heard about take care of this?
