Hi

I was stupid enough to "touch a working system". I wanted to test ermnig for syncing to google.

What a mistake.

I made a backup first, to make sure.

Then I tried ermnig. It of course screwed up, destroyed my calender and deleted all my contacts. As I almost suspected.

With a mild sigh I thought "okay, lesson learned" and just did a "restore" from the backup I had done only minutes earlier.

IT BLOODY DOESN'T WORK!!

Some form of contracts came in, but
- not any contacts I had merged into one
- some were missing
- all contacts on the desktops were gone
- as were a bunch of other widgets, randomly

In short - a complete disaster, and the contacts I had so preciously backed up - GONE.

I have looked into the contacts db files in the Backup directories. They *appear* fine. The data *appears* to be there, but loading it back in - nope. Just crap.

Help? Anybody?

*sad*
