Since i have had the Cloud FTP i have found out a few things with trail and error i just thought that i would share it with the forum so people that use Cloud FTP a problem happens then they know what to do of coarse that what forums are for and i hope my stuff is useful to the forums.
First off there is app out for Cloud FTP which is very good if you didnt already know in the app store called iusb port for the iPad and there isn't out for the iPhone just yet they are working on one it has to be passed by apple so i have been told but some one but hopefully it should be out in a few weeks fingers crossed.
Other thing when you are us Cloud FTP iusb port app if you don't shut it down properly it will not work when you come up to use it again when you are streaming media it will cut at some point and you will have to shut down the app and then restart the app then it will come back and work fine again
Here is the best way to do it
*Lauch the app Switch iCloud FTP device and a pen.
Watch or listen of your choice when finished
Click setting in the bottom right hand corner of the dashboard and click settings
A Screen will appear and you want to press Stop Server Saftely and then you wont get any problems when you come to use it next time if you
If you switch it off at cloudFTP then what will happen when you stream movies you will be unable to watch it some of the way through at some point you have to do it the right way is via settings.
Other thing that i have found it is that i bought a 2TB western digital drive (USB3) and i loaded loads of Tv Series on too the drive and i have notice that the drive takes to much power off the cloud ftp and about half way through and i was uable to watch a 50 mins of a tv series which isn't very long at all really about a 800mb file.
I have just bought a big usb pen (128GB) i will keep you all posted how i get on with the pen but at the moment i thought that the western digital drive was a waste of time because it took up too much power and the cloudFTP and got very warm too which i was a bit concern about and i couldn't watch much really.
I did pre test a usb pen 2GB pen and i had no problems at all with that and it worked fine so it i thought that i would buy a big pen.
The stream on a pen was ten times better that i found a external hard drive it just barely buffered when i was using it
I hope so of my information has been some help to some people on the forum
