As the My Cloud Mirror device owner, you have a special user account (admin) that provides you with administrator privileges. With these privileges, you can set up and configure the device to your specific needs and add other users to your personal cloud. You also have the power to determine exactly what users can access on the device. As a default, the administrator (admin) user name does not have a password. You can create one at anytime (see "Updating a User Password" on page 22).
