4. Getting Started with GoFlex Home
Now that GoFlex Home is set up, everyone in your household can begin sharing digital media 
and other files, storing files on GoFlex Home and accessing them from anywhere on the 
Internet, and backing up the files on their computers to GoFlex Home.
This chapter introduces the Seagate Dashboard and Seagate Share, the two applications 
you use to access and manage GoFlex Home. It explains how to copy files from your 
computer to your GoFlex Home folders, describes how to access your files when you’re 
home or away from home, and provides getting-started tips for enjoying other popular GoFlex 
Home features.
Opening the Seagate Dashboard
The Seagate Dashboard is the central location from which you can access all the features of 
GoFlex Home. The Dashboard software is installed on Windows computers during setup.
Note: 
The Seagate Dashboard is available on Windows computers only. Mac users must use 
Seagate Share, the included Web-based application, to store, share, and access files on 
GoFlex Home. (See “Opening Seagate Share” on page 31 for more information.) Windows 
users can use either application.
