Is it lost on anyone that nospam (Tyrone), Alan Baker & Jolly Roger insist
they have the technical ability to make it work - and yet - none of these
well-known Apple trolls has the technical acumen to post a screenshot?

I knew you'd get around to this, Arlen:

<https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1-53MXwAhDsQU59dicaGUfZRDISZAEJY9?usp=share_link>

That's a folder on my Google Drive.

In it are three images:

IMG_6446.PNG:

This shows a folder in the Files app on my iPhone with two files in it. 
Both were saved in that folder from elsewhere: one from the iCloud Drive 
and one out of Photos (that's my RF98 Van Diemen Honda Formula F racer, 
BTW; the one you say I don't actually race).

IMG_6447.PNG:

This shows the same folder with its information, which shows it's 
clearly a folder on a server with the IP 10.0.0.122.

Screenshot 2025-04-09 at 20.24.24.png:

And this last is a screenshot taken on my Mac of me accessing the same 
share. You can see the path at the bottom of the window: "Users > Alan > 
Public-Alan".

If your goal were actually to solve a problem, you won't go around 
calling the tools you WANT TO USE "toys".

It doesn't work for me.  I wish I knew the reason.

I remember ages ago It did work copying to a windows shared folder (I 
think), but I have never got it to work on the drive attached to the 
router, which is shared among all devices issued an IP address on the 
network.

Only ipad and iphone have this problem.  Windows machines have no 
problem and the drive shows up in explorer and functions same as any 
other disk drive.

And again, it's just apple's "files" app. The Owl files app actually 
works perfectly. I haven't tried any other apps from the store, since it 
works.  So, it's not a setting or mis-configuration. It's a bug in 
"files" as far as I can tell. Probably will never be fixed I guess. But 
It's it's OK because Owl files works.  I just hate to give up.

Now you've introduced an unmentioned wrinkle...

So don't.

Your statement that 'it's a bug in "Files"' is based on your limited 
read of the situation.

What's the router?

What version of SMB is it running?

With what options?

i have no idea.  It has a usb port for a disk drive. All settings are the
default

No password set for the drive.  Of course all devices have to use the
routers password to get dhcp to issue an ip address.

For decades, Apple trolls have deceitfully fabricated iOS functionality.
Ask them to post a screenshot of them successfully doing what they claim.

If they're as technically competent as they claim, surely they can do that.

Thank you for being an adult, along with badgolferman, and trying to simply
copy a file from Windows to the iOS device using iOS' Files SMB client app.

Please keep in mind that Alan Baker, nospam (Tyrone), Jolly Roger have been
brazenly fabricating completely imaginary iOS functionality for decades... 
 *It's a fact iOS devices can't even graph Wi-Fi signal strength over time*
 <https://groups.google.com/g/misc.phone.mobile.iphone/c/PZuec56EWB0>
 <https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/misc.phone.mobile.iphone/PZuec56EWB0>

Why can't these Apple trolls post a screenshot of it working for them?

Remember when Snit tried doing that long ago, and it turned out that nospam
and Snit and Jolly Roger and Alan Baker don't know what a decibel is?
 2-1/2 minute Snit video purportedly detailing iOS showing Wi-Fi over time
 <https://youtu.be/7QaABa6DFIo> iKooks can't even see the fatal flaw!
 From: Snit <usenet@gallopinginsanity.com> === Michael Glasser

The Apple trolls still think a decibel is the same as a megabit per second.

They claimed that iOS can do something as trivial as graph wi-fi and
cellular signal strength in real time for all nearby antennas, but what
they posted was megabits per second speed tests as proof of that.

Same thing is happening here almost certainly since there isn't a single
screenshot of what they claim they just did, on the entire Internet.
(ask me how I know this)

Ask the Apple trolls to post a screenshot of them successfully doing it.
Just like "Snit" did when he insisted a decibel and a MB/s are the same!
-- 
For decades, Apple trolls have deceitfully fabricated iOS functionality.

I knew you'd get around to this, Arlen:

<https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1-53MXwAhDsQU59dicaGUfZRDISZAEJY9?usp=share_link>

That's a folder on my Google Drive.

In it are three images:

This shows a folder in the Files app on my iPhone with two files in it. 
Both were saved in that folder from elsewhere: one from the iCloud Drive 
and one out of Photos (that's my RF98 Van Diemen Honda Formula F racer,

Google seems to think it can work across one or more routers, including
across the Internet. They go out of their way to say that would be a bad
idea, due to the attack surface, or because an ISP might block the well
known ports, but you could tunnel it through a VPN to get around that,
if necessary. I'm not saying anyone should do it, but it does seem to be
possible since it's just another protocol riding on top of TCP/IP.

If it doesn't work for you (and assuming you have a new enough version

If I try to add a file for example, it says the network drive is read 
only. Can't past or copy a file to the drive. Also, it cannot delete a 
file for the same reason. READ ONLY with "files app". It's the same on 
iphone and ipad. I don't have this problem on windows computers. On the 
ipad/phone, I can use owl files (similar to the "files" app, but 
actually works). So this has solve the problem for me.

But this doesn't change the fact that the "files" app simply does not 
work. I can only read files on the network drive, never able to write a 
file to it or delete a file. It has been this way a long time, and 
through quite a few updates so it doesn't look like it will ever be fixed.

The network drive is a 500 GB samsung hard drive plugged into a netgear 
RAX54V2  router. The router settings are to allow read and write for 
every device on the network, and no password or other limiting things 
are enabled. EVERY other device on the local network is able to read and 
WRITE data to the drive. On the ipad and iphone, I can sucessfully use 
owlfiles (free version from the app store), but the native apple files 
app does not work ... ever. Not even once has it worked.

If this makes me a troll, so be it.

It is true that I have a Microsoft account on my PC and indeed had to enter
that during setup of the handshaking process. I can also push/pull in
either direction. Other than you though, I do not know anyone else who
doesn’t have a Microsoft account so the Files method should work for them.
At least now we have several methods of accomplishing the same task and
people have a choice.

Hi badgolferman,

We've known each other for decades over the Usenet, so I believe, prima
facie, every word you say as you have never steered me wrong(ly) and you
know that I do make mistakes, but when I find out about them, I apologize &
correct them pronto.

I made a grievous mistake in the missive you're responding to, where it was
a thinko, so I need to point out that the fundamental problem is getting a
file from Windows into the iOS filesystem (not the other way around).

Having said that, I'm absolutely positive you pushed and pulled to and from
the iPhone native "Files" app using a SMB://192.168.1.2/SharedDocs address.

I also accept, a priori, your claim that most people will have an account
on the Windows PC that happens to have a password set for that account.

A posteriori I wouldn't call it a "Microsoft Account" though, as that means
different things to different people, e.g., you can have a "Local Account"
which is not a "Microsoft Account" or you can have a "Local Account" which
happens to also be a "Microsoft Account", so in my experience, it's useful
to distinguish between what you mean since it can be done either way.

Even so, I strive to always be logically reasonable, so I agree with you
that most people have a password associated with their account on Windows.

For most people then, the iOS "Files" SMB://192.168.1.2/SharedDocs address
will work fine. Even for me, with great effort akin to Paul's maintenance
of his email server and all the credentials complications, even I could set
up SMB to work between iOS and Windows but, in a word, it's a bitch.

It may be important to note that the iOS Files app generally supports SMBv2
and SMBv3 so the hoops I have to jump through is I have to drop the Windows
10 PC to SMBv1 (which is highly insecure and often disabled by default) if
I wanted to use the iOS native Files SMB client.

Given that's only me, one might then say "well, OK then, but SMB works for
everyone else, right" and the answer is no. Not for unrooted Android users.

For unrooted Android users, Frank Slootweg taught me long ago that you
can't use an Android SMB server because unrooted Android can't bind to
ports below 1024 (ports 139 and 445) and Windows doesn't use any other
port. Like Paul tried with his email server, I went through a lot of
machinations trying to reroute to non-standard ports, but it's too much
work just to copy a file over the SMB shares on a Windows PC.

In essence, due to my empirical experience with SMB between mobile devices
and Windows, I gave up on it which is why I don't use the Files SMB method.

In summary, if you have a password on your "local account" on the Windows
PC, then I agree with you that iOS' Files SMB implementation should work.

My assumption is that you simply needed to use an account that has a
password associated with it, and not necessarily a Microsoft account,
which would be good because a lot of people don't have a Microsoft
account configured on their PC.
