[Bug 61570] Re: All sticky notes are erased when out of disk space
Today is August 3, 2016 There were critical notes kept using stickynotes. Everything was gone today. I searched the net to find out if I was using some sort of defective choice in note-keeping software when I came across this post, "ALL STICKY NOTES ARE ERASED WHEN OUT OF DISK SPACE". Ouch. I was doing a recovery on a hard drive and DID, in fact, run out of drive space. For the record, I'm presently still toying around with mint 13 (on the particular computer in question) and that the loss may have occurred exactly as the author of this post has described. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/61570 Title: All sticky notes are erased when out of disk space To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-applets/+bug/61570/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

This had just happened to me right now, very frustrating, I lost important notes, I have Ubuntu 10.10 Linux 2.6.35-28-generic-pae #50-Ubuntu SMP i686 GNU/Linux.

[Bug 61570] Re: All sticky notes are erased when out of disk space
This just happened to me too on 10.04 LTS, but seemingly not related to disk space. I had several notes, and while not using them for several weeks (maybe months), when I re-opened the application today, it shows zero notes. Numerous normal system updates have occurred since last time I used that application, and the system is completely updated with latest stable patches, last time this week. During this period, I have not run out of disk space entirely, although I have had some warnings about disk space getting low, less than 2GB free etc., and on one point briefly down to 750mb available disk space on the /home drive due to reorganizing a lot of data, and then I freed up the space again right afterwards. The normal is having between 5-15GB free space there. Can that temporary drop that is not even close to zero still cause this? How can such a bug remain unresolved across so many Ubuntu versions? This report is over 4 years old. Can the title of this bug report be changed? I think it is misleading as it seems not to be solely related to disk space problems, and that title may cause it to not be regarded as a high-priority case? Data loss is indeed a critical issue. (Fortunately, I have a manual backup of the text in those notes, stored in my favorite tool, TreePad Business Edition (secure Windows shareware tool that also have a server version) which I run nicely through Wine, as I am careful about securing my work, so I have basically not lost my information.) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/61570 Title: All sticky notes are erased when out of disk space -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 61570] Re: All sticky notes are erased when out of disk space
Usually those notes are stored in a folder called .tomboy, in your home directory (eg. /home/CyJambo/.tomboy) . You can look there if they're still stored and open them with a text editor.
