Can neither get SFTP nor Samba working from my MacBook Pro.
-
Hello all,
For the life of me I cannot get any method of remote file transfer working under RetroPie 4.5.1.
I just got a brand new SD card in the mail today, so I flashed it with the 4.5.1 image. The first thing I did after it booted was conned it to WiFi and run updates, then I enabled SSH.SSH works. I can go into my terminal program and SSH into the pi just fine. But when I open CyberDuck (my FTP/SFTP client) and try to connect, it just times out. I have not changed the default password.
When I try to connect to the SMB share through Finder, it won't accept my password.I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the openssh-server.
I would like to note that I had no such issues with RetroPie 4.4. In fact I can swap back to the SD card with 4.4 installed and use both methods with no problem.
I am running a Raspberry Pi 3 B+ with an Anker power supply.
If anyone can suggest a next step, any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.

Are you sure you're using SFTP/SCP as a connection type ? FTP would not work with SSH.
When I try to connect to the SMB share through Finder, it won't accept my password.
Have you tried as 'Guest' ? That should work also - no problem using that on any version of RetroPie/Raspbian.
