Lionel, I appreciate your frustration, it is never fun to lose data. In the use case where you are cleaning off an old computer I would recommend removing it from your Ubuntu One account before removing data. This would prevent Ubuntu One from receiving the 'delete' command. Your recommendation for a 'are you sure?' dialogue is a nice idea. I have updated the title of the bug to reflect this.
When sharing data with co workers I would recommend sharing a folder with that user instead of granting full access to your Ubuntu One account. You would still lose the shared folder but not the entire Ubuntu One folder. You can sharre any folder synced by Ubuntu One by r-clicking and selecting 'Share on Ubuntu One' https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuOne/Tutorials/FileSharing#Sharing Thank you again for sharing your use cases and ideas. These are very helpful for future development of Ubuntu One. thank you, duanedesign ** Also affects: ubuntuone-client (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: ubuntuone-client (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Ubuntu One Desktop+ team (ubuntuone-desktop+) ** Tags added: desktop+ -- confirmation should be asked before removing U1 folder from server https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/604686 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
