# Administration

Use these pages to manage Studio accounts and installation-wide settings. Organization controls live under **Settings**; each person manages their own factors under **My Account**. Backup management is Owner-only; other pages note role requirements.

## Organization and settings

- [Organization settings](./organization/) for regional formatting and installation identity.
- [Language and regional settings](./language-regional/) to separate personal Studio language from shared signage formatting.
- [Branding](./branding/) for Tilecast-owned status surfaces.
- [Locations](./locations/) for reusable place metadata and targeting.
- [Content and playback settings](./content-settings/) for organization defaults.
- [Import and export settings](./import-export/) to move supported settings between installations without including secrets.
- [System settings and health](./system/) to check installation status and run the maintenance actions available in Studio.
- [Dependency Graph](./dependency-graph/) to trace content relationships before a change.

## Accounts and security

- [Manage users and roles](./users-and-roles/) to create accounts, limit screen access, or suspend an account.
- [Protect Studio accounts](./sign-in-security/) to enroll a second factor or require one for some or all accounts.
- [My Account and preferences](./account/) for each person's language, appearance, and sign-in factors.

## Player behavior and recovery

- [Set Player policies](./player-policies/) to set organization defaults or override them for a Display Group or screen.
- [Networking and remote access](./networking/) for server addresses, HTTPS, proxies, tunnels, mDNS, and VLAN boundaries.
- [Update Tilecast Server](./server-updates/) to update a Docker Compose installation safely.
- [Set up a Presentation Network](./presentation-networks/) to prepare a Linux Player for AirPlay when the sender cannot reach it over Ethernet.
- [Back up and restore an installation](./backups/) to protect database, media, and cached Player releases.
- [Update Tilecast Player](./player-updates/) to verify signed releases and deploy them to selected screens.
- [Reliability and kiosk](../players/reliability-kiosk/), [active hours and power](../players/active-hours-power/), and [accessibility control](../players/accessibility/) explain the main Player-policy areas.
- [Data retention](../operations/data-retention/) and [Snapshot history](../operations/snapshot-history/) cover operational history.

Screen enrollment and groups are covered in [pair or replace a screen](../screens/pair-and-replace/) and [manage Display Groups](../screens/display-groups/).
