| These are some quick tutorials to get new '''[[../|Ubuntu One]]''' users up and running. <<TableOfContents(6)>> == Subscribe to Ubuntu One == Ubuntu One offers online services for your Ubuntu machines. Here is how to subscribe. 1. Login to Ubuntu One at our website (http://www.ubuntuone.com/) using your Launchpad ID. If you don't already have a Launchpad ID, you will have the opportunity to create one at this step. 1. After logging-in to Ubuntu One, click on the plans link (http://www.ubuntuone.com/plans/) for the list of available subscription options. 1. Select the plan that is right for you to progress to the next step. 1. If you choose our free plan, follow the steps to subscribe. 1. If you choose a paid plan, follow the steps to setup regular credit card payments. 1. The final step is a confirmation page with a welcome message. You will also receive a confirmation email message. You are now subscribed to Ubuntu One. == Install and configure your computers == '''9.04 (Jaunty) subscribers''' Please follow the instructions at https://ubuntuone.com/support/installation/ to download the Ubuntu One software, install it, and configure each of your computers. '''9.10 (Karmic) or later subscribers''' The Ubuntu One software is pre-installed in 9.10 (Karmic) or later versions of Ubuntu so no download is needed. All that is left is to configure your computers to talk to Ubuntu One for synchronization. 1. Go to Applications >> Internet and click Ubuntu One. 1. Click "Add your computer". Your computer will now synchronize files. == Manage files and folders == '''Nautilus''' Keeping your computer in sync is easy with Ubuntu One. Any files or folders placed within "~/Ubuntu One/My Files" will automatically synchronize across all of your computers. You can create, modify, move, delete, or any other action you normally perform with files and folders in Nautilus or a terminal. No matter what changes you make, everything stays in sync. '''Web browser''' In addition to syncing with each computer, Ubuntu One subscribers benefit from cloud storage. Login at https://ubuntuone.com/files/ to securely download and manage your files and folders from any location through a web browser. Though it is not a direct substitute, the web browser does offer many of the features available in Nautilus. You can create folders, upload files, and delete files. More features are coming soon. == Share folders == You can share folders with an unlimited number of people using Nautilus or any web browser. When you share a folder with someone, they will receive a copy in their "~/Ubuntu One/Shared With Me" folder the next time they synchronize their computer. '''Nautilus''' 1. Browse within "~/Ubuntu One/My Files/" to the folder that you want to share. 1. Right-click on the folder and select to "Share on Ubuntu One...". 1. Type the email address of the person you would like to share with, a name for the shared folder, and if you want to allow them to modify anything within the folder. Then click "Share". 1. The recipient will receive an email. They will be asked to accept the share by logging in or creating an Ubuntu One account. '''Web browser''' 1. Go to the web browser files view at https://ubuntuone.com/files/. You may be required to login if you have not done so already. 1. Select the folder you would like to share from the folder tree. 1. Choose "Sharing". 1. Type the email address of the person you would like to share with, a name for the shared folder, and if you want to allow them to modify anything within the folder. Then click "Share". '''Stopping sharing''' 1. Go to the web browser files view at https://ubuntuone.com/files/. You may be required to login if you have not already. 1. Select the shared folder that you would like to alter the sharing settings for from the folder tree. 1. Choose "Sharing". 1. Select the "Stop Sharing" button next to the person's name. Their access will be disabled and the folder will no longer be available to them after their next synchronization. == Manage your account == To manage your Ubuntu One account, choose "My Account" from the web browser. This area enables you to do the following: * Manage your computers authorized to sync with your Ubuntu One account. You can delete computers and will soon be able to customize the computer name. * Change email preferences for receiving Ubuntu One tips and updates. * Review the details of your Ubuntu One subscription such as plan features, current status, and payment history. * Upgrade or cancel your subscription and alter your payment method. You will soon be able to downgrade your plan. |
