Administering Notebook Content After Installation

Introduction

When users start Notebook software by clicking the Notebook icon, they can use installed content

from the Gallery Sampler and the Essentials for Educators folders. They can also use and add

new content and folders to their own My Content folder.

NOTE: By default, a user’s My Content files can’t be seen by any other users. Notebook software

creates an empty My Content folder for each user that logs into the computer and starts Notebook

software.

All users can start Notebook software in Administration mode and change the location of their My

Content folder. Additionally, users with Administrator’s rights can start Notebook software in

Administration mode and perform these additional functions:

create and rename Team Content folders that other users can share

add existing Team Content folder access to a computer

remove Team Content folder access from a computer

create a My Resources link to an RSS feed

1. Click Start > Run.

The Run dialog box opens.

2. Type the following command line, including the quotation marks.

"C:\Program Files\SMART Board Software\Notebook.exe" /admin

3. Click OK.

Notebook software starts in Administration mode.

Changing the Location of the My Content Folder

When a user creates new content or copies existing content to their My Content folder, Notebook

software places the Gallery files in this default location:

C:\documents and settings\<user name>\application data\smart
technologies inc\gallery\my content

where <user name> is the current user’s Windows account name.
