On your computer, open a Web browser (such as Explorer or Safari) and enter the GoFlex Home IP address in this format: http:\\GoFlexHomeIPaddress\ For example: http:\\123.456.789.0\ To find the IP address of GoFlex Home on a computer running the Windows operating system, find GoFlex Home in the list of Network devices and check its Properties. (In Windows XP, if GoFlex Home doesn't appear in the network device list, click Show icons for networked UPnP devices in My Network Places, then follow the on-screen instructions.) To find the IP address of GoFlex Home on a computer running the Mac operating system, use the Network Utility in Finder (Applications > Utilities). Why does GoFlex Home seem to shut down by itself? GoFlex Home includes a power-save feature, which means that GoFlex Home enters a standby state after 12 minutes of no activity. GoFlex Home automatically returns to active mode whenever someone on your network storage system accesses their folders and files. During setup, someone else logged into the Seagate Dashboard. What can I do? The Seagate Dashboard allows you to change users. See "Logging In to the Seagate Dashboard" on page 30 for more information. Alternatively, open Seagate Share (see page 31), click Sign Out, then log back in as yourself.
