Seagate Dashboard-Installation And Use; Installation - Seagate Backup Plus Reviewer's Manual

Seagate Dashboard—Installation and Use
The Seagate Dashboard works seamlessly with your Backup Plus Portable Drive. It is comprised of three
main components: Protect (backup your computer), Save (download content from your social media sites),
and Share (upload content to your social media sites). The benefit of this is that in just 3 clicks, you can
perform all three tasks.
When new items are added to your computer and/or your social media sites, the Seagate Dashboard can
scan them for new items and categorize them accordingly. This eliminates the need to constantly instruct the
software where the new information goes. And as an added bonus; Seagate will provide up to 4GB of Cloud
Storage for free for an entire year.
(As was briefly mentioned, the Seagate Dashboard is Mac compatible but for the purposes of this reviewer's
guide, we will focus on the Windows environment.)
Ok, let's walk through the installation and use of the Seagate Dashboard.

Installation:

1. On your Windows desktop (or the Windows Start Menu), double click My Computer.
2. Locate and double click the Seagate Backup Plus Drive
3. Double click the Seagate Dashboard Installer.exe (you may be prompted to install Microsoft VC
Redist 2010 SP1 (x86) component) & Reboot Validator, install the files)
a. Accept any update that is available to get the latest version of the Seagate Dashboard
rather than doing a manual update later.
