I would like to suggest the following: Intergrate a function into wuala which allows it to directly synchronise one of its folder (or more at the dispense of the user) with the actual file system automatically.
As an illustration: I use FF A LOT meaning that I get approximately 5 useful bookmarks a day (most of which originate from stumble upon just like wuala originally did). Now I want to have a backup of those files ready in case my main PC crashes. However, I don't want to rely on my 24/7 online server harddrive for a backup but instead I want also to use Wuala for backing up my data. Now it is a tidious task to do that every day by hand so I suggest that a function which automizes this at a time interval chose by the user.
Hope you like the idea (and hopefully intergrate it soon)
Kind Regards

PS: Alternatively you could emulate a virtual HDD to the system so that windows users could refer to their wuala space with (e.g.) H:\ and linux users could mount it as a hdd3 or something similar. I do, however, realize that that is not very feasable seeing the wanted system independence.
Hello,
i dont understand the "local backup" thing 100%.
So my whole upload stuff is mirrored locally on my Harddisk?
Can i make exception or disable the "Localmirror-Feature"? I only can choose the direcotry, so my whole Upload is redundant on my own harddisk! (One time normal, and one time encoded at Local-Directory.
I started this just to clear a few things out. I like to control the size of my Wuala folder and the amount of traffic that Wuala generates but currently I don't understand any of them.
I'm a bit confused about what happens when I drag a file into wuala. This is what I think that happens:
- the file is copied into cache
- the file is uploaded
- the file can be removed from the cache if I click the 'clear cache' button
Wuala also remembers the file location and modification date, so if I want to access a file that isn't in cache but it's still at its original location, I don't need to re-download it.
So, I have a few of questions. First: who maintains my files? I thought that the files were maintained by the Wuala server but the 'Show Maintenance' button in the uploads window still shows some files that are maintained by me.
Second, how can I maintain files if I have no local backup of them?Are they only maintained if I have them in cache?
Third, why does my Wuala folder have 300 MB if I just cleared the cache?
And finally, is that anonymous maintenance stuff coming or what? :)
Ich hatte in dem auf 5GB limiterten lokalen Cache Ordner 20GB. Augenscheinlich sind in diesem Ordner auch Dateien fü maintenance. Nun gab es hier einen index-fehler. Wuala behauptete Daten lokal im cache zu haben, konnte aber nicht darauf zugreifen und weigerte sich auch, diese wieder zu laden.
Ich habe nun alle Daten aus den Unterordner des Local2 Ordners gelöt. Alles funktioniert wieder wunderbar. Nur - wuala hat nun keine Dateien mehr zur maintenance.
Meine Frage ist nun, werden meine Daten trotzdem noch gepflegt? Üerprüala auf irgend eine Weise trotzdem, ob alle Daten greifbar sind und holt die sich wenn notwendig zur weiteren Pflege automatisch zurü
Wenn ich Daten von mir mauell lade, startet wuala die pflege füse Daten wieder. Nur - ist es jetzt notwendig, dass ich alle meine Dateien einmal durchsauge um die Datensicherheit zu gewäleisten, oder muss ich mir da keine Gedanken machen?
