However as a corporate user for a very very small company I am now upset. I just realized all of the new software updates after ordering a pogoplug 4 three weeks ago and believe I will be sending back pogoplug and hard drives I ordered. I want to share 2 folders and give users the ability to upload files. Original plan was to share 2 folders and give them read/right access, but make sure a password was needed to log into the folder before they did anything. However with the changes I cannot assign a password to this folder and do not feel comfortable sending a website link with read/write access without a password. Is there a solution to do this? Not sure if I could add a 2nd pogoplug to the same network, but even then I do not want to give everybody access to change the backups. In reading Pogoplug Team I could add 3 users for $45/year and this wouldn't be so bad, but you have to...<div><a href="http://www.pogoplugged.com/forum/thread/89620/Need-multi-users-with-stand-alone-pogoplug/">[Read more]</div> Pogoplug Team Thu, 24 May 2012 21:39:22 GMT Michael Demaree http://www.pogoplugged.com/forum/thread/89620/Need-multi-users-with-stand-alone-pogoplug/#discussion?src=forumtopic_rss http://www.pogoplugged.com/forum/thread/89620/Need-multi-users-with-stand-alone-pogoplug/?src=forumtopic_rss http://www.pogoplugged.com/forum/thread/89619/windows-desktop-keeps-closing/?src=forumtopic_rss I love my pogoplug. the desktop client on my mac seems to work great, but the windows version seems to disconnect often.

So I am running Snow Leopard on my MAC and I have a pogoplug with 3 hard drives connected to it via a USB hub. Although POGOPLUG appears in the Finder, and a few minutes after "refreshing" or "reloading" Pogoplug, the drives disappear from the Finder and you cannot access them without reloading again. My iTunes cannot access the files on it nor can Picasa. Meaning, the drives are unaccessible. Can anybody help?
