Thanks for your help. I think I got it now.

Thanks a lot for the Ubuntu One and Lastpass suggestion. I have checked them out and will try them. I already have signed up for Ubuntu One and received their invitation but my ubuntu is 8.04 and I have to either upgrade or clean-install to 9.04. I have the 9.04 CD ready and shall do it maybe this weekend. On Jul 21, 1:57 am, PJO pono...@gmail.com wrote: Hi. I will have a look, though it sounds like a question for Lyall. As a precaution I recommend that you make sure that you unencrypt all your encrypted tiddlers first. (See the EncryptDecrypt tiddler, in particular the Troubleshooting Note).

I keep my passwords online now using Lastpass (www.lastpass.com) which I recommend highly (blog post:http://wombatdiet.net/2009/06/16/lastpass-password-manager/). I will probably drop support for TiddlySpot shortly because of better / safer sync options: Dropbox and Ubuntu One for files and Lastpass for individual records. TiddlyFolio is still useful for the wallet records (credit card details etc.), passwords for e-banking and other things that should be kept well away from the basket of web passwords -- no point in a single key to absolutely everything. It's possible to accidentally upload unencrypted passwords to TiddlySpot; it doesn't use SSL for the xfr. I'll update TiddlyFolio to TW 2.5.2 and see if it's a 1.0 release. This is the first glitch reported for a long time. One thing I'd like to make go away is the business of clicking Allow to enable writing to disk.

Forgot to add to the above that I am exporting lastpass passwords to a TiddlyFolio tiddler -- as a means of backing up. Otherwise TiddlyFolio contains passwords I do not want to sync with lastpass. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups TiddlyWiki group.
