and updating your PlayStation.
1. Ensure that your PlayStation 3 and My Book Live are powered on and connected
to your local area network. You see the main user interface with a series of
options displayed horizontally across your TV screen.
2. Using the directional buttons (left and right) on the PS3 controller, navigate to
Music, Photo, or Video depending on which type of media you want to play, and
press the X button.
3. Using the directional buttons (up and down), scroll and select MyBookLive (or
the new device name that you created previously) by pressing the X button. You
now see a list of folders (Music, Photo, and Video) to the right of the MyBookLive
icon.
4. Make sure that you select the folder that corresponds to the option you selected
back in step 2. For example, if you selected Photo from the main user interface
screen, open the corresponding Photo folder to the right of the MyBookLive
icon; otherwise your content will not display properly.
