Just downloaded Smartware, can't access backup tab

Just purchased a new iMac (OS X 10.9.1) and a new WD 2TB external drve to go with it.  It didn’t come with the smartware like my previous drive did, so I downloaded version 1.3.6.1 as I was instructed to do.  But the backup tab isn’t accessible.  I can drag things into my external drive for backup, but I much prefer having the software that will backup automatically for me.  How do I get it to work?  The smartware doesn’t even see the drive, only my computer.

Hello,

If the drive did not came with Smartware included it is possible that it is not compatible with Smartware. Please post the model number of your drive in order to verify this info.
