The IomegaWare software package* includes tools and programs designed to help you take advantage of all the features of your Zip® drive.

1-Step Backup/Restore

®1-Step Backup easily backs up data files from your hard drive to Zip® disks. (1-Step Backup does not back up all of your operating system files or files that are in use.) When you need to restore a backup, double click the 1- Step Restore icon. For information on using 1-Step Backup/Restore, see IomegaWare Quick Help in the IomegaWare folder or click the Help button that is available when the program is running. 1-Step Backup/ Restore is available for Windows 95/98 and Windows NT.

RecordItSoftware

RecordIt software allows you to record audio tracks from a compact disc to a Zip® disk and take those recordings anywhere a Zip drive is available. The Audio Mic In feature allows you to record from a microphone, making it easy and convenient to record meetings or to dictate a memo. RecordIt software is available for Windows 95/98.

MIMPORTANT! RecordIt software is intended for non-infringing

use only. Digital recording of music must be done within the bounds of the personal use statutes of applicable copyright laws. M
