  Bug already reported and fixed in trusty (but you can fix it in the

>   * [toolbar] On the right side of the toolbar, there are five buttons:

  You're right, it's a bug, needs to be reported :-)

>   * Ubuntu One is a service for storing your files online in your Ubuntu

  I don't know.

  Same in my virtual machine.
