Use the Drive with My Third Party Mobile App
My Passport Wireless drive is actually a wireless DLNA storage. This means besides our own WD My Cloud mobile app, any other DLNA mobile app can also see the drive and access the content inside. NEED EXAMPLES AND INSTRUCTIONS
Charge the Battery
Important: It is best to charge the battery before using the My Passport Wireless drive
the first time as the factory charge may have decreased during shipping.
1. Connect one end of the cable (included in the box) into the drive’s USB port and the other end into the adapter (included in the box).
2. Plug the adapter into a wall socket.
3. Push the power button. The LEDs start to blink. (THEY BLINK EVEN IF YOU DON’T
PRESS THE BUTTON.) As the drive charges, the LEDs change color. (See “Understand
the LEDs” on page 25 for a complete list of the power and wireless LED states.)
When the power LED s solid green, the drive is fully charged. When the Wireless LED is solid blue, the drive is completely charged and able to connect wirelessly.
Understand the LEDs
The drive is pre-charged to at least 80% at the factory. However, the battery level may be lower when you take it out of the box as it may have been in transit or on the shelf for a sig­nificant length of time.

Using the Drive as a Media Server
Media Server Overview
My Passport Wireless drive uses TwonkyMedia to enable the drive to serve as your home's
DLNA media server. It streams photos, music, and videos to your DLNA-compatible devices
so you can play media on a compatible device easily
Note: DLNA-compatible devices search for media stored on the drive if
streaming has been enabled on the Media page (see “Media Page” on page 47). By default, streaming is disabled.
Note: If you have a DLNA server? player? (e.g., Vidon or Shiftka) on your phone,
the My Passport Wireless drive can stream media to it.
The media server searches for all the media stored on the My Passport Wireless drive connected to your home network. After enabling media serving for the drive (see “DLNA” on page 47), you can just transfer your multimedia content to your My Passport Wireless drive, and you are ready to stream and view content on your home entertainment center, game consoles (for example, Xbox 360® or PlayStation® 3), WD TV Live® media player, or DLNA® 1.5 digital media adapters), and other PC computers on your home or office network. Visit http://www.dlna.org for further information on DLNA.

CUSTOMIZING THE DRIVE: DASHBOARD
1. Click the Wi-Fi icon to display the Wi-Fi page, which shows the current connection type, in this case Direct.
2. To change the connection type, perform one of the following procedures.
Connecting to a Hotspot
A Wi-Fi hotspot is an access point that provides network and Internet access to mobile devices such as a laptop or mobile phone. Hotspots are typically in public locations like coffee shops, airports, and hotels. A good example is to connect your My Passport Wireless drive to the Wi-Fi system in a hotel, and then connect numerous other devices to the drive. You get wireless capability in all the devices but you pay only for the initial connection.
Another advantage is that connecting the My Passport Wireless drive to a hotspot gives you access to your files as well as to the Internet. If you set up a password for your drive (during set up or using the Admin page) when you are connected to a hotspot, others will not be able to see the contents of the My Passport Wireless drive.
1. On the My Passport Wireless dashboard, click Wi-Fi. The screen illustrates the current connection. In this case it is a direct connection.

If the network you joined has Internet connectivity, you now have Internet access. And if other computing devices join the My Passport Wireless drive's Wi-Fi network, they will also have access to the drive's content as well Internet connectivity. Some hotspots require you to log in when you first open a browser window.
Connecting to Your Home Wi-Fi Network
When your drive is connected wirelessly to your computer or a mobile device with a direct connection, you can change the connection so that the drive has access to your home Wi-Fi network only. All devices on the home Wi-Fi network can access the drive.

Backing up a Windows Computer Backing up a Mac Computer Managing with WD Quick View
This chapter provides a brief overview of using your My Passport Wireless drive as a backup
destination. The drive must be connected wirelessly to your home network (see ....) (what
about hotspot) or to the computer physically in a DAS connection to back up files.
Backing up a Windows Computer
Using WD SmartWare™ Pro (Windows Only)
WD SmartWare software is an easy-to-use tool that gives you the power to protect your data automatically with automatic, continuous backup and ability to retrieve lost files.
Note: Automatic backup protection is continuous as long as both your
My Passport wireless drive and your computer are connected to your network. If you disconnect the drive from your network, backup temporarily stops. Once you reconnect, the WD SmartWare software automatically scans your computer for new or changed files and resumes backup protection.
Installing WD SmartWare Software
Note: WD SmartWare Pro software is a free upgrade, providing you with three
licenses for your household.
The installation process gives you the choice of installing standard WD SmartWare or WD SmartWare Pro. Pro enables you to back up to non-WD drives, otherwise unsupported WD drives, and the cloud via Dropbox.
