your login credentials, type your email address and password and click Sign in to 
see the connection request from the WD SmartWare Pro software.

The Success! indication signifies that the WD SmartWare Pro software has been 
granted access to your Dropbox account.

Note:
The procedure is the same if you later want to change to a different
Dropbox account. In that case, the WD SmartWare Pro software displays 
a Switch to a Different Dropbox Account dialog advising you that 
changing your Dropbox account invalidates any backups you have 
configured using the current account as a backup source or target device.
Specifying a Different Retrieve Folder
When you start a retrieve, you can choose whether you want to store the retrieved files in 
either:

screen.
