computers. (SafetyDrill is not available on the Macintosh.) OneTouch 4 users can use a
third-party or Operating System (Vista Business or Vista Ultimate) backup solution.

4. What types of files and folders cannot be backed up or synchronized using the

Maxtor Manager's Backup and Sync features?

The Backup and Sync features cannot back up or sync these file and folder types:

• System Attributed Files/Folders (Operating System and/or Program files), including

hidden files/folders.

• Personal Mail Files created with Outlook, Outlook Express, Windows Mail, and

Macintosh Mail

• Financial Files/Data
• Other user data files/folders

The Maxtor Manager's Backup and Sync utilities are designed to back up or sync a single

user's Windows XP or Mac OS X Documents folder or Vista Personal User folder.

5. Is there any way to recover a lost DrivePass or Maxtor Encryption password?

No. There is no way to recover a lost password.

• If you lose a DrivePass password, you must erase the OneTouch drive in order to use

it again. Erasing the drive will erase all data stored on it.

• If you lose a Maxtor Encryption password, you must delete the encrypted folder. This

will delete all data stored within the encrypted folder.

Seagate strongly recommends that you create passwords that are easily remembered or

record passwords and store them in a secure location.

6. Can I use my OneTouch 4 without installing the software?

Yes. The OneTouch 4 can be used as an add-on, external storage device for storing data.

However, if you wish to use the feature-rich utilities such as Backup, you must install the
Maxtor Manager software included on your OneTouch 4 drive.

7. Can I use my OneTouch 4 with both Macintosh and Windows computers?

No. Windows and Macintosh File System formats do not play well together. Windows XP

and Vista formats use the NTFS File System, while Macintosh uses the HFS+ File System.

Windows cannot see a drive prepared for use with a Mac. While Mac OS X can see a

Windows-formatted drive, it cannot write files to it. So there’s no safe way to use your
OneTouch 4 drive with both Operating System platforms.

8. What’s the simplest way to transfer files to my OneTouch 4?

Transfer files and folders to your OneTouch 4 using standard Windows/Macintosh Copy

and Paste or Drag and Drop methods. Refer to either Windows or Apple Help files or
Knowledge Bases for file transfer procedures.

9. The OneTouch 4 does not have a power switch. How do I disconnect the drive

from my computer?
