Using the Clickfree Transformer SE
The the Clickfree Transformer SE has dual personalities:
• use it with an external hard drive and it acts just like the Clickfree Transformer.
• use it with an iPod or iPhone and it acts just like the Clickfree iPod Transformer.
As a result, this document has two divisions, one for using your Transformer SE with an
external hard drive (starting with “Introducing Clickfree Transformer SE (HD)” on page 10)
and the other for using it with an iPod/iPhone (starting with “Introducing Clickfree
Transformer SE (iPod)” on page 70).
Each chapter title has either “(HD)” or “(iPod)” at the end so you can easily tell which
division you are in.
P ACKAGE CONTENTS
Your Clickfree backup package contains:
• one Clickfree Transformer SE
• one quick start guide
Note: Because of software updates, what appears on your screen may be slightly
different from what appears in this document.
D EFINITIONS
Just to make sure that the user guide is clear, we’re going to define a couple of terms that
are used throughout the guide.
Administrator
“Administrator” is a special login name for the user who can make system-wide changes to
the computer, has full control, and can access all of the files on the computer. Most home
users are automatically the Administrator of their computer. If you don’t know if you are
the Administrator, or how to log in as Administrator, you might need to talk to the person
who set up the computer for you. If no one set up your computer for you, then by default,
you are the Administrator.
Back up and Restore
Backing up is making copies of data so that a copy can be used to restore the original after
the data is lost or destroyed. Backups are used to restore data after loss of or damage to
your computer’s hard drive, and to restore files that have been accidentally deleted or
corrupted.
Making a backup of your content only copies it from your computer to your external hard
drive/iPod/iPhone, and does not delete it from the computer’s hard drive.
Restoring your content from a backup only copies it from your external hard
drive/iPod/iPhone to your computer, and does not delete it from the external hard drive.
