Mumble/Certificate transfer information

Transferring your Mumble Certificate

• Back up your certificate!

The certificate wizard forces you to do this, but you should always back it up to a secure storage medium like a flash drive, your email inbox, or any external storage medium.

If you ever lose your certificate -- if your disk crashes and you have to re-build; if you upgrade your hardware and need to re-install the Mumble client -- you will have to re-register and be manually added back into all your various Mumble Servers!

• The certificate identifies YOU! (i.e. your Mumble client.) You need only one certificate for multiple servers.
• Similarly you only need one certificate for multiple devices -- your home system, your office system, your mobile device.

... to the iPhone App

Transfer your Mumble Certificate using iTunes.

• These transfer instructions work for both Windows and OS X, i.e. any platform which runs iTunes!

• Step 1: Start Mumble on the device where your certificate (the one you want to use) is stored.

• Step 2: On the menu choose "Configure", then "Certificate Wizard".

Note that foe each client this location is slightly different. With the Mac Client, for example, access to the "Certificate Wizard" is located on a Drop-down menu - "Configure," NOT on the "Configure button" panel from the connection panel!

• Step 3: Select "Export current certificate", then click Next.

• Step 4: Click "Save As", this will open a Browser/Finder window where you can select the name and where you want to put your certificate. Choose a file location and choose a file name that you can remember for later (I put mine on the desktop and named it MumbleCert), then click "Save".

• Step 5: Click "Finish". This will save the Mumble certificate where you chose with the as the name you chose.

• Step 6: Connect your iPhone to your computer and start iTunes.

• Step 7: On the left menu select your device, and sync it (right click your iPhone's name and select sync or click the sync button on the bottom right of the iTunes window) if you haven't done so since you installed the Mumble App on your iPhone.

• Step 8: At the top of the main iTunes window where it displays the information for your phone, you have a number of options along the top; Summary, Info, Apps, Tones, etc... Select the Apps tab.

• Step 9: Scroll down to the File Sharing section of the Apps window. You will see two smaller sections, Apps on the left, and Documents on the right. In the Apps section select Mumble, then select "Add..." on the Documents section.

• Step 10: Browse to the Mumble Certificate you saved earlier, and choose "Open".

• Step 11: On your iPhone open the Mumble App, select Preferences, then Certificate, Press the + button in the top right then select "Import from iTunes" then select the certificate.

• You can now connect to your mumble servers using the certificate you moved from your computer.
