For some reason, both with 1.0.1 and 1.1.0, I get a strange error when syncing with Ubuntu one. One moment it will be working, and then I will make another change and sync will fail.

It seems to go through the whole process, “downloading”, “uploading”, “committing changes”… then it says “Could not synchronize notes, Check the details below and try again”.

The details below say that the changes were uploaded to the server, but they were not. Clearing the sync options and re-initialising will get it going again, but changes will be lost of course.

Any ideas?

Definetly a dream come true.. Half a year ago I was so sad, that the cloud was no part of ubuntu, now I’m keeping various desktops at synch

Anhow: A question concerning security. What encryption is used in storing and transferring the data?? If none I will quickly disable this service: My tomboy notes _usually_ contain some security relevant information.
The “launchpad” password is kind of being upgraded from yet another forum password to 2.nd after root

No that seems the problem, no browser opens.
I’m using Firefox as the default browser…
Synchronisation already works on my Ubuntu installation.

@sirblackheart did you get to the point where your browser launched, asking to authenticate with U1?

Miguel, the last patch to make it work was just merfed a few days ago in Tomboy source, so that hasn’t been released yet. You’ll need to wait for the new version (1.0.1 I guess) to have it working
