Folder Shares
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.
