USER MANUAL

Shares are folders that can be used to organize and store files on your 
My Book World Edition. They can be shared with everyone (public) or with selected 
users on your network (private). 

The device comes preconfigured with three shares: 

•

Public—created automatically after initial setup 

•

Shared Music - folder for storing music files you want to share with other users. 

•

Shared Pictures - folder for storing image files you want to share with other users. 

•

Shared Videos - folder for storing video files you want to share with other users. 

Important: Do not change folder names or delete these default share 
folders. Disruption of file sharing could result. These are the default folders 
for the Media Server (Twonky Media) and iTunes Service. For more 
information on how to use Twonky media, see “Media Server” on page 138. 
For more information on how to use the iTunes service, see “iTunes” on 
page 138.

•

Download—For saving files using Downloader (see “Download Manager: 
Downloader” on page 151).

•

Configuration—Read-only share containing only a Help file and the login page. 
It is not meant for sharing or storing data and should not be modified.

When setting up a user account, the administrator can create private shares 
accessible only by user name and password (see “To create a new user account:” on 
page 93), or by setting permissions on an existing share (see “Folder Share 
Permissions” on page 143).
