MAXTOR FUSION USER'S GUIDE

Exporting Files

To make a copy of a file on Maxtor Fusion and save it to your
local file system, you use the Export command.
To export a file:
1.
Select the file you want to export.
2.
Click the Export button in the upper right-hand part of
the interface.
3.
Save the file to a folder on your PC.
You cannot export more than one file at a time using the web
interface. If Maxtor Fusion is on the same LAN as the PC you
are using, you can click on the EXPLORE icon and use the
desktop file manager to copy (drag and drop) the files you
want to export to a folder on the PC.

Setting User Preferences

You can access the user preferences associated with your
account by clicking on the SET PREFERENCES icon (looks
like the outline of a person) located under the MAKE PUBLIC
button.
As a (non-administrator) user, you can set some of the
preferences for your account. You can change your
password, display name, and primary email address. You
can set the Category for your default landing page. Also,
the URL where public files can be accessed is listed.

System Administration Tasks

This section contains management and maintenance topics
to help the Maxtor Fusion administrator
can import and share files, only the administrator can
create and manage user accounts, configure network
settings, and back up files. Unless you are logged in using
the administrator account, you will not be able to perform
the tasks in this section.
Using the Administrator Account
To log in as the administrator, start at the main login screen
– you may need to first log out (click the Log Out button in
the upper right-hand part of the interface). Then log in using
the username admin and the password created during
installation.
If you've forgotten the admin password, it should be
recorded in the printed checklist that was filled out at
installation time. If you don't have the checklist or didn't
record the password, you can enter the username admin and
then click the link at the bottom that says Forgot Password?.
The login screen can display a hint (also set up at installation
time) to help you remember the password.
All system administration tasks are performed after clicking
on SET PREFERENCES when logged in as the administrator.
Adding and Deleting User Accounts
As the administrator, you can set up accounts for other
Maxtor Fusion users. Anyone can view images on the Public
Site or view files from an email invitation, but only users with
accounts can access the web interface and use the features
of the system to import, organize and share files. After you
create an account for a new user, they will be able to log into
the system and begin using it. Maxtor Fusion supports up to
14 users, including the administrator.
