Essentials for Office 365 2.12 - User Guide

Interface Overview

The application consists of three primary panes (1) Navigator, (2) Contents Area, (3) Backup Navigator Area.  A set of windows is automatically generated when Loading or Downloading operation is performed.

The picture above represents the default arrangement for these panes.

Navigator Pane

The objects displayed in the Navigator area are limited to sites, sub-sites, lists and libraries.  Double-clicking on any of the sites, lists or libraries will trigger the application to display the content for that object in the Contents pane.  In addition, a set of options is available from right-click menus and the ribbon at the top of the screen.

Contents Area

The Content area displays the actual data inside a list or library.  Double click on any list or site in the backup set and you can select and restore individual items.

·In order to select (or deselect) multiple items located directly below each other, click on the first item and then holding the SHIFT key, click on the last item.  All the files located between the two items will be highlighted.  

·In order to select (or deselect) multiple items which are not located next to each other, hold down the CTRL key and select individual files.

Located in the top left-hand corner is a breadcrumb definition of the list or library, whose content is represented in the window.

Backup Navigator Pane

The objects displayed in the Backup Navigator area are limited to sites, sub-sites, lists and libraries.  In addition Backups are organized by date-time stamps and type of backup.  Double-clicking on any of the sites, lists or libraries will trigger the application to display the content for that object.  Individual items, lists, sites or site collections may be copied back into SharePoint.
       

When a Backup Navigator Pane has an item selected, a Properties window will appear at the bottom of the Backup Navigator Pane.
