I saw your email while on vacation and then didn't have time to respond immediately. So now it is my turn to apologize for the excessive response time. > Everything dandy.

It could be that the other data categories are now shown because the corresponding local databases do not exist yet. You mentioned that you are new to Unix, so perhaps you never really used Evolution for this data before? Try creating a dummy event, task and memo in Evolution, then run the sync UI again to configure syncing. For what it's worth, the root cause of this is a rather confusing "open only if exists" flag in the Evolution storage libraries. SyncEvolution set that flag if the databases seemed to exist already, but later it turned out that the flag should effectively be ignored and always be set to true. SyncEvolution 1.3 will do that and thus should no longer require creating dummy items just to ensure that the databases really exist. -- Best Regards, Patrick Ohly The content of this message is my personal opinion only and although I am an employee of Intel, the statements I make here in no way represent Intel's position on the issue, nor am I authorized to speak on behalf of Intel on this matter. _______________________________________________ SyncEvolution mailing list [email protected] http://lists.syncevolution.org/listinfo/syncevolution
