Connect Iomega EZ Media & & backup center directly to the computer

hello,
Is it possible to directly connect this hard disk to the computer without internet box (router)?
In advance thank you
Sebastien
Solved!
Go to Solution.

You should be able to connect the Ethernet cable from the NAS directly to the computer, then you should be able to access it though Lenovo storage manager or by entering either the IP address or the device name in a browser URL bar. Typically, the device name is the model name.

Edit files remotely Iomega EZ Media & Backup Center

Hi,
I'm deciding which NAS to buy. I'm interested in Iomega EZ Media & Backup Center.
I want to know if it is possible to edit any files remotely (word, excel, autocad, corel, etc.) without having to previously download it to the pc I'm remotely accessing with.
I don't want to download the file, edit it, and then re-upload the edited file. Is too uncomfortable.
I have to use an app to do this or I can edit it directly from Windows Explorer or a web browser like Firefox?
Thinkin that maybe I'll access from a public pc and want to have the possibility to edit it directly.
I'll appreciate any comments. Thanks

Hello aleb21
You would need to install LSM on every remote pc/workstation to be able to mount/map the shares for file editing.
You can install LenovoEMC Link on your iOS and Android mobile devices. The application is intended to allow you to open documents, however since the application functions the same as the web user interface it would be more for viewing documents not editing. To edit files/documents you would need to download the file, edit on the mobile device, then upload the updated file to the NAS.
The video is correct, but does not go over the portion about connecting the remote computer using the personal cloud section of LSM. Basically you would do the following:
-Launch LSM
-Navigate to the Personal Cloud tab, click on "settings" on that tab.
-Enter the cloud name you created on the device's web ui. It can take a few minutes to find the cloud in some situations.
-Enter your NAS credentials created on the NAS or that are included in the invite email sent from the NAS.
-Once connected LSM's default is to auto-map/mount the shares that your user as access for to the remote computer. You can confirm this option by right clicking on the LSM system tray icon and make sure the "map drive letters" option is checked. You can also access the shares via the share tab in LSM, this will open an explorer/find window for you to navigate through the shares.
WebDAV is seperate from the web user interface (home page and content explorer). It would look similar to a basic FTP web interface when accessing via a browser. Just like the FTP protocol you could theoretically map the connection to explorer/finder remotely as a web/internet location with your external ip address. It should allow for remote editing.
For VPN, when accessing your cloud using LSM on a remote computer it would function like a VPN between your NAS and the remote computer. If you want to use a 3rd party VPN and not use personal cloud it should be possible, but may require your router or computer on the network to actually manage the VPN software.
For the camera question, with your setup the nas would not be a part of it unless you have the ip camera's setup to save data to the NAS. If that is the case you can setup the destination share the camera's are storing to for media sharing. This would allow the Media Server feature to stream the saved videos locally and/or remotely. Keep in mind that the media server feature does not do transcoding so the media receiver would need to support the file format the ip camera's store.
All lifeline os devices have a copy jobs backup option, however it does require knowledge of directory sharing from the source computer to work, see Host data backup using Copy Jobs
I personally recommend looking into the ix2-dl option as it:
-is under $100 USD
-can support up to 2x 6TB hard disks w/ RAID 1, 0, and NONE (JBOD)
-has support for SecureMind surveillance
-has a more powerful SoC processor
Hope this all helps with your decision.

Lenovo Iomega EZ Media & Backup Center ssh acces or twonky update

Hello,
I have a problem with playing video files with twonky server pre instaled on Iomega EZM. Video files are played correctly but no subtitles are visible. I installed the same server on ma PC and found out that ther reason is not correct tv profile for LG TV. There are two available LG DLNA Player and LG DLNA DMR and both are not working. Proper file should look like this:
name: LG DLNA custom
content:
<Client>
<DeviceId>

<DisplayName>LG TV 3</DisplayName>
<HttpRecognition>
<HttpText>LGE_DLNA_SDK</HttpText>
<HttpText>LG_UA</HttpText>
</HttpRecognition>
<DeviceDescriptionRecognition>
<DescriptionText><manufacturer>LG Electronics</manufacturer></DescriptionText>
</DeviceDescriptionRecognition>
<MappingUpdatePolicy>FIX</MappingUpdatePolicy>
</DeviceId>

<Out>text/srt</Out>
</MimeTypeMapping>
</MimeTranslations>
</Adaptations>
<DeviceQuirks>
<Quirk>STOP_WORKAROUND</Quirk>
</DeviceQuirks>
</Client>
Now I would like to update Twonky server with this file, but form manage center ther is no way, and twonky configuration site also not allows any actions of this kind.
So i think that best way would be to acces system patition by SSH and add this file. How can I do it?
SSH is active but i can't login as root - don't know pass, and any typical combination of root, admin, administrator etc doesn't work
I think it would solve problem for many users.
Please help

Go to Solution.

You log into SSH with your administrator username, and the password has "soho" appended at the beginning. So, if the admin password is "1234", then
e.g., username: admin password: soho1234
** Disclaimer ** use at your own risk ! If you are not familiar with Linux admin, you might not want to mess around.

Iomega EZ Media & Backup center upgrade problems

Hello there.
When prompted by email to upgrade my Iomega NAS from 4.0.8.23976 to 4.1.104.31360, I followed the usual procedure of downloading the file to a PC, uploading it through the web interface to the disk, and clicking the button launching the update. However, this time uploading ends with message "The software could not be updated."
Unfortunately that's pretty much all I know since the message doesn't contain absolutely anything else.
Any ideas on what's going on?

When you download it are you un-compressing it at all? You do not want to do that if you are. Also, make sure the file is .tgz file.
When the file is downloaded with Internet Explorer, the file which shows as a .TGZ file, may be downloaded as a .GZ file. This is a product of file MIME types built into Internet Explorer. This file is still recognized by the device as an update file.

Iomega EZ Media Backup Center: Red light, HDD not working

Hello luigylem
If your device is in warranty, you should contact LenovoEMC Support to check on what options may be available to you. If your device is out of warranty, I recommend checking here under the Iomega section for potential firmware downloads and guides on the process that would be needed to install the firmware on a new disk.

Lenovo EZ Media & Backup Center and SRT subtitle

When playing movies using the built in DLNA feature, will it be compatible with srt (or any other kind) subtitle?
In other words, if I store a movie with any kind of subtitle inside Lenovo EZ Media & Backup Center, and use a smart tv to play this movie by DLNA, will the subtitles be played?

Hello all,
When adding new .srt files to the Lifeline device running twonky, please be sure that the file name matches the video's file name except for the extension.
If the subtitles are not detected, try running a Twonky database repair from the lifeline web interface
(All Features> Media Server > Settings > "Repair Database") This is mentioned in past official twonky release notes for .srt files.

Laserjet 4100 -- can it not be connected directly to the computer?

Is there no way to connect the printer directly to the computer, without going through a network? It seems like that should be a very basic and obvious thing. I have a desktop computer. It is connected via ethernet cable to the HP Laserjet 4100 printer. And yet, the computer cannot see the printer. The diagnostic/troubleshooting programs that I have tried say that the printer is not connected. Help!

Can you clarify how you have the Time Capsule presently configured on your network? Is it connected with an Ethernet cable to your modem/router?

This usually indicates you really have a 2nd gen unit. Check the model number on the back. A1288 is 2nd gen. A1318 is 3rd gen.

Under Network Preferences, select the WiFi

Select the network you want to delete from the list and click on "-"
Click "Ok"
Click "Apply"
Well done ;-)
You may also want to delete the wireless key from Keychain.
