Sharing your Folders with Others

Page 10 highlights

Sharing your Folders with Others Mirra allows you to share folders both via the web using email addresses and via your local network with people whose computers are connected to your Mirra. Sharing is secure and free both for Mirra owners and for the people with whom you share. You can share entire folders or only selected subfolders. Once you've shared a folder, any new files added to that folder are immediately available to the people you've shared with. Since your shared folders are backed up on your Mirra, they're accessible even if you turn off your computer and remove it from the network, as long as your Mirra remains on. Step 1: Click the Sharing tab. If this is the first time you're sharing a folder and if no other folders have been shared with you, the Sharing screen is empty (Figure 17). If you're currently sharing folders or someone is sharing folders with you, they're listed on the Sharing screen (Figure 18).
