Hi Pete,

Dobey told me yesterday that this might have been fixed yesterday. You
might try updating and then logging out and back in and see if it
continues to happen.


Thx, Joey. I'm up-to-date afaict, but I'll wait until next week to see if anything comes through.

Hi all,

The UbuntuOne icon in my notification area seems to be constantly spinning.
  When I mouseover the icon it says, "Ubuntu One: Verifying". Afaict that is
all it ever says.  What is it verifying for all this time?  I thought it
might be syncing files, but:

1) I'm not making many changes to that directory (though I am using it) 2)
The files I have added recently are not very big at all
3) Changes I make on the web and locally seem to take forever to be
recognised on the other end
4) I'm getting files and directories with ".conflict" appended to the end
where I have made a change on only one side

Lots of questions here, but why is it a conflict if I only make a change at
one end?  For instance, somehow the "Shared With Me" folder ended up as both
a top level folder and a sub-folder of the "My Files" folder.  I don't know
how it got there, but I deleted it in the Web UI.  Now I have a directory in
"My Files" called "Shared with Me.conflict"  I just wanted to delete it.
  Another example, I edited a file in My Files and now I have the same
filename with a .conflict appended.  As I cannot edit the files on the Web
UI, how did I end up with a conflict?

If you would rather I report these as bugs please let me know, but I wanted
to rule out general confusion first.

Regards,
Pete
