6. Managing GoFlex Home Managing GoFlex Home Settings and Preferences 3. Press the Power button to restart GoFlex Home, then follow the instructions in "Step 4: Setting Up GoFlex Home" on page 14 to re-activate GoFlex Home, re-add user accounts, and re-add the computers on your home network. Be sure to re-create user names exactly, so that everyone can reconnect to their existing GoFlex Home folders. TIP: You can also access all the folders and files on GoFlex Home by connecting GoFlex Home directly to your computer using a GoFlex Cable (sold separately). Go to www.seagate.com for more information. Managing GoFlex Home Settings and Preferences The GoFlex Home Preferences page helps you manage personal and network settings for your GoFlex Home device. On the Preferences page, you can change your personal information, manage user accounts on your GoFlex Home (if you have permission to do so), change network-related settings, and manage your GoFlex Home device by updating its software or shutting it down properly. You can open the GoFlex Home Preferences page two ways: • Open the Seagate Dashboard (see page 30), then click Preferences. Or, • Open and log in to Seagate Share (see page 33), click Go To, then click Preferences. The Preferences page opens, showing a range of settings. This section describes those settings not already discussed in this chapter. Server Preferences Settings This section describes the settings available in the Server Preferences area of the Seagate Share Preferences page. • Network Sharing: Controls whether members of your household can access their GoFlex Home Personal and Backup folders using either Explorer or Finder, as well as access a USB printer connected to GoFlex Home (see "Setting Up a Centralized Printer" on page 49). • UPnP Router Configuration: Controls whether or not Seagate Share configures your router, and whether or not Seagate Share can override your router's current configuration. Note: Enable this setting only if you experienced a problem while setting up GoFlex Home. GoFlex Home works with most consumer home network equipment with no special settings required.
