Network Drive screen displays:
2. Select the desired letter from the Drive drop-down list.
3. Click the Finish button.
Note: When Windows attempts to reconnect a Mapped Network Drive after a
restart, the “Unable to reconnect mapped network drives” error may appear.
This can occur if the username and password of the My Book Live Duo drive
do not match the current Window's username and password information.
During the automatic reconnection process, Windows may attempt to send
the current Windows username and password instead of the
My Book Live Duo username and password specified during setup.
Attempting to open the mapped network drive prompts a new login window.
Enter the My Book Live Duo username and password to reconnect the
share, allowing it to be accessible again (until the next reboot). For more
information on this problem, see Knowledge Base Answer ID 6745.
Creating a Shortcut to the Public Share (Windows only)

you can create aliases for any subshares. (See “Using Mac OS X Leopard/
Snow Leopard/Lion” on page 19.)
Select Create Shortcut on the WD Quick View submenu. An icon representing the Public
share displays on the desktop.
