This option is used to try the command without doing any changes. This command will restore the data stored in that directory to your local PC(evolution).

So i decided to clean phone, ovi.com and restore from PC. Then I did sync with phone and PC with Ovi.com Somehow I forgot to set sync direction for Notes and Notes were deleted from both phone and PC(Outlook) I still have contacts, Calendar but not sure if it's all well. So my only reliable data was in Evolution which I had synced few days back. I decided to try that with syncevolution on bluetooth. To be on safer side I decided to start with calendar+todos and memo(notes) Since I wanted to restore these to my phone, I had disabled "receive changes from phone" but when i did sync it was completed with no change log in main screen. But I found that now data was gone from both phone and Evolution. I thought as if I lost everything. But then i released that there is some backup. When I checked log directory, i indeed found that before/after states being recorded for each sync. I then tried your suggestion as in following link. http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg01286.html But it didnt help. actually i couldnt understand it to be honest. could you please help me here? I am attaching my screenshots of log directory. Please let me know how to enter command. i want to restore before states in directory virus-2010-07-28-01-13, i tried in following command with memo but when i used this command nothing happened syncevolution --restore </home/suyog/.cache/syncevolution/virus-2010-07-28-01-13> --before --dry-run "nokias60" memo Also in syncevolution GUI , i cant see any backup which i can restore. see screenshot attached. Could you please help me? I am really in trouble as I have lost all notes, calendar, contacts and Evolution logs are only last hope.
