Advanced features
When MyKey is running, you can access a number of advanced features that make
Memory Key easier to use. Click the tools button and then click an option in the
Advanced Features menu. This section describes these features.
Enable Write Protection
To protect your Memory Key from viruses or data loss when connecting it to a
computer whose security and integration are questionable, you can use MyKey to
write-protect your Memory Key. This prevents protected files from being deleted,
created, or modified.
Synchronization options
MyKey synchronization options speed up and simplify the process of
synchronizing your work between two or more computers, or backing up files. The
following synchronization options are available:
v Folder: This option synchronizes all folders and subfolders.
v My Favorites: This option synchronizes the My Favorites folder in your
computer and the Memory Key Favorites folder on your Memory Key.
v My Documents: This option synchronizes the My Documents folder in your
computer and the Memory Key Documents folder on your Memory Key.
Synchronizing a folder the first time
To synchronize a folder for the first time, complete the following steps:
1. Select Synchronize Folders from the MyKey Console Tools menu. The first
time you use the synchronization feature on a new computer or with a new
Memory Key, the Synchronization Settings window opens.
2. Select the folders that you want to synchronize. The first folder must be an
existing local folder. The second folder must be an existing Memory Key folder.
Note: If your local and Memory Key folders contain identical files the first time
you attempt to synchronize them, MyKey will not know which file is the
most up-to-date version. Therefore, be sure to assign different names.
3. Click OK to start the synchronization process, or click Cancel to exit.
