Resetting the administrator password
This procedure should only be used if there are no administrator users with valid passwords. If a non-administrator user, or another
administrator, forgets their password, another administrator user can reset it for them if you have created more than one administrator user.
Refer to
Modifying a user
for more information. Resetting the Home Media Network Hard Drive will result in all administrator users reverting to
non-administrator users and any manual network configuration settings will have to be reset.
1. To reset the Home Media Network Hard Drive press the small recessed button on the back. The Home Media Network Hard Drive will restart and all
administrator users will revert to non-administrator users.
2. When your Home Media Network Hard Drive device finishes restarting, open the Home Media Network Hard Drive Console. The Device Setup steps will
appear again. Create an administrator user. You can use the same name as a previously created user, since this process will make that user an
administrator.
3. Complete the Device Setup as described in
Setup
.
If you had more than one administrator user, you will need to edit each user individually to make them administrators again. Refer to
Modifying a user
