A Slingbox is a device that enables television viewers to watch programs on their desktops, cell phones or laptops. This device can work with multiple operating systems including Mac, Windows XP and Windows 7. The Slingbox has a USB cable and you can run through it by connecting it to your computer's jump drive or USB drive.
Instructions
1. Download the software that you need for your particular computer. If you are not sure where to find it, go to the Slingbox download site.
2. Place the jump drive into the port on your computer for USB devices. Turn on your computer and wait for the jump drive to appear on your desktop. Once it does, click to open it.
3. Copy and paste all the Slingbox items in your hard drive or applications folder and paste them into the jump drive.
4. Find the "Remote" application on your computer and install the Sling Player into that program. Enter the information asked for such as user name, password and Finder ID into the appropriate boxes and click "OK."
5. Set up the Slingbox on another person's computer by placing the jump drive into the USB port and repeating Step 4. You will be able to watch live or recorded TV anywhere you have your jump drive.
