Backing Up Your Files
Mirra continuously backs up your files and folders while
you work as long as it’s turned on. When you back up a
folder, all files and subfolders within that folder are also
automatically backed up.
Note: The Mirra Personal Server is designed to run in the back-
ground, so you can keep working during the initial backup if you
choose. The initial backup takes roughly 20 minutes per GB of data,
because all your selected folders are being backed up at once.
Subsequent backups take less time.
Try out the Mirra backup process.
If you’d like to get a feel for how a Mirra backup works
before you begin backing up folders from your computer,
create a folder named “test” and copy a few files into it.
Then follow the steps below to back it up. Once you’re
comfortable using Mirra’s backup feature, delete the test
folder and begin the initial backup of your folders.
Step 1: Select folders for backup.
a. On the Backup & Restore screen of the Mirra desktop
application, select New Backup or Recommended
Backups on the Backup & Restore Tasks menu.
Clicking New Backup launches a window that allows
you to browse to the folder you want to back up
(Figure 1).

Backup
Clicking Recommended Backups launches a window
listing frequently used folders that Mirra recommends
for backup (Figure 2).
Figure 2
b. You can also select a folder for backup in the Finder
by Control-clicking the folder and selecting Add
Folder “foldername” to Mirra Backups from the
shortcut menu (Figure 3).
Figure 3
Step 2: Confirm your backups.
Once you’ve selected a folder for backup, a Confirm
Backup window opens for each folder you selected
(Figure 4).

• If you wish, change the folder name that will be
displayed on your Mirra.

The Status Bar on the bottom of the Mirra application
provides feedback on the progress of the backup
(Figure 5).

Undeleting files and folders
If you want to recover a file or folder you’ve deleted from
your computer, you can use Mirra to undelete it and
restore it to its original location on your computer.
On the Backup & Restore screen, backed up files and
folders that have been deleted from your computer are
displayed with a line through them.
Step 1: Select the file or folder you wish to undelete
(Figure 7).
Figure 7
Step 2: On the Backup & Restore Tasks menu, select
Undelete File or Undelete Folder.
The deleted file or folder is automatically restored to its
original location on your computer.
Restoring a previous version of a file
Your Mirra automatically saves up to eight versions of each
backed up file. You can restore any version to its original
location on your computer.
Step 1: On the Backup & Restore screen, double-click
the file to be restored. The history for the file, including
previously saved versions, is displayed (Figure 8).
Figure 8
Step 2: Select the version you want to restore.
Step 3: On the Backup & Restore Tasks menu, select
Restore Selected Version. The file is automatically
restored to its original location on your computer.

6Web Access
Accessing Folders via the Web
Once you’ve backed up folders on your Mirra, you
can access them from any computer connected to
the Internet via a free Web Account at Mirra.com. You
can view and download files from your Mirra, edit them,
and upload them back to your Mirra. Files uploaded
to your Mirra are copied back to the original folder on
your computer.
You can access files via the web as long as your
Personal Server is turned on and connected to the
Internet — even if your computer is turned off. Mirra
web access is secure. All connections are SSL-
encrypted and user-authenticated by email address
and password for logon.
Accessing Files via Mirra.com
Step 1: Check the Web Access screen in the Mirra
application on your desktop to be sure your folders
are enabled for online access (Figure 9).
Figure 9
• If a folder is labeled Disabled, highlight it and click
Enable Access on the Web Access Tasks menu.
If your backed up folders are not displayed on the Web
Access screen and the Account Status bar is red, you
haven’t yet created a Mirra Web Account (Figure 10).
Figure 10
• Click Change/Create Account next to the Account
bar and enter your email address.
Seagate will send you a confirmation message with a
link to the Mirra web site to finish your account creation.

Web Access
Step 2: Sign in at Mirra.com by clicking Member Login.
Use the email address and password you used
to create your Mirra Web Account. The Backups page
lists your backed up folders enabled for web access
(Figure 11).
Figure 11
• Click the Shared Folders tab to see the folders
you’ve shared with others and folders that others
have shared with you (Figure 12).
Figure 12
Step 3: On either the Backups page or the Shared
Folders page,
• Double-click a folder to view its contents.
• Click the download arrow to download a file to your
computer (Figure 13).
Figure 13
8Share
You don’t need to wait for one file to complete its
download before selecting another file to download.
Note: It can take up to two minutes for Mirra to connect securely
when you access the first file in a web session. Once the connection
is made, Mirra operates more quickly on subsequent downloads.
Uploading files to your Mirra
Using Mirra web services, you can either add a new file
to a folder or replace an existing file with a new version.
Files uploaded to your Personal Server are copied to
the original folder on your computer and on any other
computer that has synchronized with that folder.
Adding new files for backup to your Mirra
Step 1: On either the Backups page or the Shared
Folders page on the Mirra web site, open the folder in
which the file will be saved.
Step 2: Click Add File(s). The Add Files window opens
(Figure 14).
Figure 14
Step 3: Click Browse to add up to 5 files to this folder.
Step 4: When you’ve selected the files you want to
add, click Add File(s). An Upload Successful window
confirms that the selected files have been uploaded to
your Mirra.
Note: When you share folders via Mirra.com, share recipients can
edit, save, and upload shared files to your Mirra using the process
described above. However, they can access only those folders you
choose to share with them.

Overwriting a new version of an existing file
Step 1: On either the Backups page or the Shared
Folders page, click the Overwrite symbol next to the
file you want to upload to your Mirra (Figure 15).
Figure 15
The Overwrite page opens (Figure 16).
Figure 16
Step 2: Browse to find that file on the local computer
and click Overwrite. An Upload Successful window
confirms that the selected file has been uploaded to
your Mirra. All uploaded files are automatically backed
up to your Mirra and copied to the original folder on
your Macintosh.

Share
Sharing your Folders with Others
Mirra allows you to share folders both via the web using
email addresses and via your local network with people
whose computers are connected to your Mirra. Sharing
is secure and free both for Mirra owners and for the
people with whom you share.
You can share entire folders or only selected subfolders.
Once you’ve shared a folder, any new files added to that
folder are immediately available to the people you’ve
shared with. Since your shared folders are backed up
on your Mirra, they’re accessible even if you turn off
your computer and remove it from the network, as long
as your Mirra remains on.
Step 1: Click the Sharing tab. If this is the first time
you’re sharing a folder and if no other folders have
been shared with you, the Sharing screen is empty
(Figure 17).
Figure 17
If you’re currently sharing folders or someone is sharing
folders with you, they’re listed on the Sharing screen
(Figure 18).
Figure 18
Step 2: On the Sharing Tasks menu, click Share via the
Web or Share via the Local Network. The appropriate
Share window opens (Figure 19 and Figure 20).
