I have a related problem. My Core is a SonicOrbiter, and thus far, my Roon backups have been on DB. Like the others here, I too want to move my backups to iCloud, as I see no purpose in paying DB any longer.
Thanks for responding. As I mentioned in my first post on this topic, I did try these steps, but was given a prompt to the effect that the path is not correct. I carefully wrote down the error message. Would you please review that and give me a better sense in the context of what I am trying to do?
Here is the relevant information again for your convenience:
My Core is a SonicTransporter.
Thus far, my Roon backups have been on DB. (Like the others here, I too want to move my backups to iCloud, as I see no purpose in paying DB any longer.).
I don’t quite understand what you are trying to achieve here. You are trying to save a backup of your SonicOrbiter Core on your Mac, and then have that uploaded to iCloud sync, correct?
No. I am trying to have the Roon backups on iCloud, instead of DropBox. That is why I searched and found this thread, but alas, the recommendations do not work.
@catman - Roon does not have native integration with iCloud. You can set up a folder on the Mac that Roon backs up to and then have iCloud syncing that folder with your files in the cloud.
I understand. But my Roon Core is on the Sonic Orbiter. Therefore, Roon can’t find a folder on my Mac to back up to. This the problem that this thread attempted to solve. It appears to work for some people. Any chance of some help figuring out the last mile, please?
Have you made sure to enter your username + password into the Network Share Dialog, exactly as it appears in the Sharing Tab? I would also try using your Mac email address.
If the issue is still the same after, you might have made a mistake in your Sharing Panel and not provided proper access:
You can share a screenshot of your Sharing Panel if you want.
I am quite sure I have – but perhaps I need more guidance. I am using File Sharing, following your screen sharing. Could you please clarify what you mean by ** Network Share Dialog**? Also, what do you mean by Mac email address please?
In the above screenshot, there’s user names to the right, for example “Greg Stratton”. In some cases when adding the share, instead of using the username, I have seen the need to input the email address as the username, e.g. greg@icould.com if the account was set up for email login.
