Hi,
Sorry about poor info, I'll try to put that right here. I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic koala ) and Evolution 2.28.1. I can go to File > Backup settings and create >>evolution-backup.tar.gz. <<< on my external hard drive, which as you say shows up on “Places”. But when I want to test the backup I go to File > Restore Settings, I get to evolutionbackup.tar.gz on the hard drive but can do nothing with it! If I double click it I get “ Please select a valid backup file to restore” If I right click it I get the chance to show hidden files If I click “open” I get the same message “ Please select a valid backup file to restore” If I backup to a USB stick using the same procedure it all works as per the instructions in the Evolution guide and restores OK. _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
