Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
After I have installed macOS Sierra, the automount of my network drives does not function properly. Each time during start-up I have to provide my login credentials.
iMac with Retina 5K display, macOS Sierra (10.12), also for MacBook Pro
I can confirm this problem.
As it seems it is a general problem. In German discussions forums there are several discussions.
Synology, QNAP, even TimeCapsule. You are always asked to enter the credentials and press connect.
The problem is fixed for me. Automount works again.
Here is what I did:
- deleted the old shared volume item in user startup items.
- deleted any entrys regarding the NAS (Synology) in the keychain.
PLUS:
- installed the latest cricial update for my Synology NAS (6.0.2 update 2)
Then:
restart Mac, connect to shared volume in finder with cmd+k, drag connected share into user startup items.
-> automount works again.
I found a very simple solution for this problem by chance. I just put the server icon (keychain must be saved before) to my dock menu (on the right side). So all servers attached to the dock (keychains saved) will automount without any password confirmation.
