Adding a folder
Adding a folder creates a new subfolder within the current folder. Using subfolders is a

folder within MyLibrary.
To add a folder, select the folder where you want to add the subfolder, and then click the
New Folder icon ( ). When prompted, enter the name of the folder, and then click
Create.
Deleting a folder
Deleting a folder removes it and all its files and subfolders from the ICY BOX
Mediaserver. Delete folders carefully!
To delete a folder, select it, and then click the Delete Folder icon ( ). You can also
select the folder, display the menu, and then select Delete.
Note that if you delete a folder, and an album contains a reference to a file within the
folder, the item will no longer be available from the album.
Uploading files
Uploading files copies them from your computer to the selected folder. If you upload a
file to a folder within FamilyLibrary, it will be accessible to all users (unless the user's
account blocks access). Only you can access a file uploaded to your MyLibrary folders.
