Cannot add folders to Ubuntu One

  • 772

I have signed up with Ubuntu One (20GB) and I'm having the following issue:

I basically cannot add folders through the panel interface. I have been able to add five folders so far, but I'd like to add some more (yes, they are inside the home folder). I don't get no errors, but nothing is added to the folders list.

By using the command line interface like this

 u1sdtool --create-folder /home/alex/Web

it basically hangs. Nothing happens. If I then list the folders with command line, my folder is not there.

Any idea?

(I'm on 12.10)

  1. Maybe the issue was related with the high number of files that needed indexing.

    Adding folders one by one and waiting for indexing and uploading for each, apparently solved the issue.

    Now added folders can be seen right away.

  2. I had the same problem and I solved it by reinstalling UbuntuOne following the instructions here https://one.ubuntu.com/help/faq/how-do-i-completely-remove-and-reinstall-ubuntu-one/

  3. Have you tried adding them in the file manager (nautilus)?

    If you create a normal folder then: Right click the folder -> Ubuntu One -> Synchronize this folder.
