Synchronizing Folders

The ability to synchronize folders across multiple com-

puters is an advanced feature available when you share

folders with other computers connected to your Mirra.

You synchronize folders by establishing a connection to

a shared folder.

When a shared folder has been synchronized between

computers, changes made to it on one computer are

reflected on every other computer synchronized to that

folder and are automatically backed up to the Mirra.

Step 1: On each computer, click the Sharing tab.

Step 2: From the list of shared folders, select the one

to be synchronized.

Step 3: On the Sharing Tasks menu, click

Synchronize to this computer (Figure 21).

Figure 21

Step 4: Select a location on your computer and click

OK. A copy of the selected folder now resides on this

computer and is synchronized with copies residing on

the other computers connected to your Mirra that have

also synchronized the folder.

If you delete, rename, or move a synchronized folder,

it will be deleted from all the computers synchronized

to it. Deleted folders can always be restored, however,

using the Restore Tasks menu.

Note: Synchronized folders cannot be copied into a folder that is

already selected for backup. Choose a destination folder that has

not yet been backed up.
