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 iPod, and does
not delete it from the computer’s hard drive.
Restoring your content from a backup only copies it from your iPod to your computer, and
does not delete it from your iPod.
