Hello. Is it possible to email attachments from My Cloud using Outlook on my desktop? For instance, I want to be able to send a PDF as an attachment in an email instead of a link to the PDF. I use Windows 10.

I can do it easily from my iPad or iPhone, but haven’t figured out how to on my desktop. Thanks!

Have you clicked on Attach>Browse this computer and selected your My Cloud under Network. Then select the PDF you want to send. See example image below. Extremely easy, it works for me.

Click on, tap, or activate image to enlarge it.

If you have added users and they are on the network, I would think they can attach the same way.
I have two single bay My Clouds, one on OS3 the other on OS5.

I don’t know if it would work if they are in another state and having to use mycloud.com.

I just tried it with one of our salesmen outside of the office (where the My Cloud is located) and he didn’t see it as part of his network or as an option. I’d like to think there is a way to do it so he doesn’t have to download every attachment first before emailing.
