I have had to redo the directions for the Tonido as I messed up on a step involving only adding selected drives instead of having access to the whole computer. Here are the full instructions again. First and foremost, you need to download the Tonido Desktop.exe file from the Tonido website. Be sure you choose the file that is appropriate for your operating system. It is best to use Internet Explorer for this. If you are wanting to access your main computer, you must install this file to that computer. Tonido's download page is: http://www.tonido.com/application_download.html Once you have this file downloaded, you of course have to install it. Once installed, you must launch the file in order to create your new account with Tonido. Please note that once installed, the Tonido Desktop file is set to run in your system tray, so there is no need to activate it from the actual .exe file, unless you have shut it off and want to turn it back on. Then simply activate it from the icon that hopefully you told it to place on your desktop. Once launched, you will be prompted to create your new account. In the first edit field, you must provide your chosen account name. Below this is a link where you can check to make sure your chosen account name is available to use. Check this by simply arrowing down once. It will most likely tell you that it is available, unless of course someone else has chosen that same name. If it is taken, shift tab and try a different account name. Tab once. In this edit field, enter in your chosen account password. Tab again. In this edit field, reenter your chosen account password. Tab again In this edit field, enter in your preferred email address. Tab again. Make sure to check the box that says you agree to their terms and conditions Tab again. Click on the create button. Look down the page to make sure it has given you your URL that you will use for accessing your account through the internet or via a mobile device. This URL should look like this: http://acountname.tonidoid.com After doing this, you can close Tonido, you are done installing Tonido! Next, download the app from The Apple store to your iPod, iPad or iPhone, or any other mobile device that the Tonido page says it supports. Once downloaded, double tap the app to open it. The Tonido app will open on the account information. This is where you enter in the information that you used when you created your account via the Tonido Desktop program. This is a little tricky as there are three edit fields here. The first edit field has a URL in it. Double tap on this edit field to edit this URL. The <<<http:// will/>>> remain. All you need to type into this field is your chosen account name and then the tunidoid.com. So it should look like this in the first edit field. http://accountname.tonidoid.com Then Flick to the next edit field which should now show your user name already there. If not, double tap to activate this edit field and enter in your account name only. Flick to the next edit field. Double tap to activate. Enter your account password. Flick up to the done button and double tap to activate it. Once this is done, you should have full access to your computer and all external drives hooked up to your machine. If you don't want all folders and drives to show, open the Tonido in your system tray. Enter your password. Once the Tonido page has loaded, click on Tools. Then click on Settings. Next go to Miscellanious, which is really tricky to access, but it can be done if you are well adept at using Jaws. I have no clue how to access it with Window Eyes or NVDA. I accessed it with Jaws by doing the following: After clicking on Settings, hit f6 Then tabb until you find the buttons, which are: General, Account, Network, Misc, Log and About. Click on the Miscellanious button. After clicking on the Miscellanious button, go down the page until you find where it says: Add allowed folder button. Click on this button Arrow down several times to find the edit field to type in your drive letter. type in something like this G:\ H:\ i:\ j:\ or whatever drive letter you want access to. You can also browse to this drive by clicking on the browse button. Click on the Add button Find where it says Enable access to only selected folders Make sure this is checked Now you will have access to just the drives you added instead of your whole entire computer. I hope these directions have helped in some way. It seems intimidating but it is actually very easy to set up and once set up, it is so awesome to be able to access your own music, photos and other stuff from your iPhone, iPod, iPad, Android, Blackberry, etc. Why load your device up with music when you have full access to your own stuff and it won't eat up space on your phone.
