    I have successfully transferred all my music FROM my nas drive via Ethernet cabled network to my A6 which I have fitted with a 4tb internal SSD.
    I now want to know how I can do the reverse and Transfer all my music FROM the internal SSD to my NAS ??

    SMB via a MAC or PC is probably the easiest. Connecting a physical USB disc to the A6 will make the transfer quicker. There is a way to copy/paste via the A6 screen.

    SMB:

    Just type \\192.168.1.74 (with the IP address of your A6) into a folder on your PC.

    You then see a share.

    Next you see a long name for your SSD. ‘Storage’ is the built-in memory of the A6.

    Next you see folders - pick the EverSoloMusic folder if that is where you put your music.

    Thanks for the advice Bergholdt.
    I was hoping there was an easier route as there was when I transferred all my music from my NAS to the inboard SSD with just using the touchscreen and touching a few icons
    Best regards

    Well, if your NAS is visible through the A6, you can just use the copy/paste function.

    Yes my nas is visible on my network as are all my devices Bergholdt but I’m not sure of which icons I need to use on the touchscreen to transfer from my inboard SSD to the NAS as the handbook isn’t exactly written to show how what each icon stands for & to do this, hence my original question

    There is a user guide on the Eversolo site. I’ll see if I can find it for you.

    Thanks for all your help Bergholtd,
    Update :
    Now all the music I wanted that was on my Synology NAS drive is now on the onboard 4Tb SSD, I decided to reconfigure my synology NAS from a mirrored 2x2tb to a RAID 0 (combining the two into one) making wrought 3.5tb after formatting and disc packages were added.
    Did a full disc check to ensure all sectors were ok. Now in the process of copying all the music files back onto the now larger volume of the NAS via my network & the dmp_samba method. For some odd reason it worked faster and easier to access on my windows machine than my macmini
    Best Regards

    I have a question for the makers of EVERSOLO Zidoo , it’s bit long winded so please bear with me.
    It’s about in the apple onboard app for Apple Music.
    I don’t have Apple Music & I’m sure it will work if I installed it but I do have “Apple music match” !!
    This is, for those who aren’t familiar or have never heard of it, is a service Apple provide for an annual subscription of £21.99p, whereby apple interrogate your iTunes account home computer and then mirror your collection and allocate it onto your own music cloud. Totally separate from iCloud.
    Only uploading what music you have that they don’t !
    Once synchronised you don’t need to store any music on your mobile devices and stream all your music from your apple cloud to your phone/ipad/MacBook or Mac mini. If Apple have a better quality version of your allocated music then you get that to stream instead of your own version.
    I use my phone with apple play in my car to play my extensive music collection through the car’s infotainment system and to make and receive phone calls.
    Up until the latest EVERSOLO software update today, I could also stream my Apple Music match to my A-6 using apple Airplay on my devices.
    Now sadly since the update I can’t due to the update.
    Are there any plans for Zidoo to reinstate the AirPlay functionality back again so that users can do as I do and do not need or want Apple Music ??
    Thanks
    Sy
