No, I did not check the browser. I had been using Ubuntu One to store documents as late as yesterday morning (I had a brief report due). I established the account on October 5 and copied all of what I had from JungleDisk (my Amazon S3 storage) to Ubuntu One. I did this because Ubuntu One is integrated into Ubuntu and JungleDisk is not (JungleDisk can be a bit fickle at times). I was considering moving everything over to an Ubuntu One monthly subscription (the price is reasonable and JungleDisk does not permit file sharing). I can't take that chance now. As finicky as JungleDisk can be, I've never lost anything. But to answer your question, no, because I have been able to see my files in the Ubuntu One folder, under "Places," I assumed my files were on the server. Is it possible they were not, that they were only stored locally? How could this be if I had the client running with no indication of any errors. My computer crashed after it froze up this morning. When I went to reboot it. I recovered some most files using an installation CD. I never even thought to check to see if my files were still on the Ubuntu One server. They have been there and have opened up from there for the past 2 weeks. The one thing that was odd is that 3 days ago, when I went to open up a series of presentations from the Ubuntu One file, OpenOffice claimed that they files were damaged and asked me if it should repair them. I selected "Yes" and it did so without any further problems. Do you think there is any chance that when my computer locked up it may have deleted my files on a remote server (I find that hard to believe). I was logged into Ubuntu One but was not using it at the time. But one thing is certain, the Ubuntu One client was open and running on this computer (I set it to start automatically) and the Ubuntu One folder on this computer showed that the files I expected to be in Ubuntu One were in Ubuntu One. Can I just close out my account now or is there some reason I should wait? Consider including an indicator light to the Ubuntu One applet like as JungleDisk has. When I save a file, I can visually see the indicator light flashing and I know my files are moving from the local file on my desktop to the AWS server. There is even a log that I can refer to, to track activity. Anyways, thank you very much for your quick response. I wrote in a moment of anger (probably won't leave Ubuntu, but I'll never go back to or recommend Ubuntu One). I had just finish reinstalling Ubuntu after returning from classes this morning only to find my most important files gone. If I had only lost music and pictures, I could have lived with that, but coming up to midterm exams, losing my presentations, papers and notes puts me in a bit of a spot. It means I have a long weekend ahead of me. I did retrieve everything I had written before Oct 5 from my Amazon S3 account, so it is not a total loss. Thank you once again for your quick response and I wish you the best of luck with Ubuntu One. On Fri, Oct 9, 2009 at 4:02 PM, Eric Casteleijn <
