Update
As of Osmo 0.2.14, there is a Backup and Restore button included on the main screen which makes this whole process much simpler.
After you click backup, you see the below screen.
After you click restore, you see the below screen.
Backup
Run the following command
cp -R ~/.osmo/
Restore
- Install a clean copy of osmo-pim
- Run the following command in the terminal
cp -R ~/.osmo/
Additional Information
To determine where Osmo-pim stores its files, you just need to review the man page with the following command.
man osmo
Within the man page, it explains the following.
FILES $HOME/.osmo/calendar_notes.xml - calendar groups and notes $HOME/.osmo/config.xml - configuration $HOME/.osmo/contacts_records.xml - contacts data $HOME/.osmo/ical_files.xml - active iCalendar files $HOME/.osmo/notes_entries.xml - notes list $HOME/.osmo/notes/*.osm - notes data files $HOME/.osmo/tasks_entries.xml - tasks data
Depending on the amount of information you have entered into Osmo, it may make the most sense to copy the $HOME/.osmo
folder to your backup location.
There is a post on Ubuntu forums that is somewhat outdated and now incorrect.
