#Cloud station drivemac update
Update : Synology Cloud Station Server / Cloud Drive is broken again. It and Synology are disagreeing about how much space is free in the user-quota for my MacBook Air … I’ll use the DMG to update my other machines. Click Overview (sometimes this is empty, quit and start over again).
Go to Package Center, All, find Cloud Station Server, click Open (alt: click the four-square-icon next to question mark to see running apps).Start Synology Assistant to locate FLNAS (IP Address), open it.This document helped: Sync files between NAS and computer Network Attached Storage (NAS) Notice neither of these actually have anything to do with a “Cloud”, they’re both LAN specific. What I wanted was to update “Cloud Station Drive” running on my Mac, which is actually Cloud Station Server Client, to a version compatible with “Cloud Station Server” running on my Synology NAS. I think I’ve seen File Sync, Cloud Station Drive, Cloud Station Sync, Cloud Station Server and Cloud Station Client used to refer to similar or identical things.

They add and remove “Cloud” to everything and seem to move software names between products on a whim. Notice I’m not naming the file sync? That’s because Synology, a Chinese company, uses English words inconsistently. I’ll fix Time Machine next, this is about fixing the file sync. Meanwhile both Time Machine and my Client-Server NAS file sync are broken. I’m going to need the big bug fixes I’ll turn it off in a month or two. I’d turn off auto-update, but at this point the damage is done. It took me a while to figure out that Control Panel:System:Info showed the version number: DSM 6.0-7321. I didn’t want to bother my NAS, and I didn’t want it to bother me. Next I started using it as a post-server replacement for Apple’s perennially broken network shares. I bought the NAS because Apple’s Time Capsule is broken. Like dealing with the complexity of my Synology NAS. It wasn’t perfect, but it shielded me from a lot of hassles. Somewhere around then we were in the tail end of the Great Recession, Google had turned Evil, and, in retrospect, Apple’s glory days were behind it. Looking back, 2009 was kind of a bad year.
