I used to make an automatic backup of my files in UbuntuOne account using DejaDup. This option is no more availabe in Ubuntu 14.04. How can I get my files? They are compressed in my Ubuntu One account by DejaDup.

There is a script to download all files of a single Ubuntu One folder through the web interface. See blog post for more details. I have tested it again and it doesn't seem to work with Firefox as stated in the post but only with Chrome. Haven't tested it but might also work with Chromium.



Here in brief what you need to do:




  • Go to blog post and store link Download U1 folder as bookmark

  • Open Chrome and login to Ubuntu One

  • Browse to deja-dup backup folder and execute Download U1 folder bookmark



As you have all data now on your machine you can use Deja-Dup to restore it by opening Deja-Dup, press Restore... and choose Local Folder as Backup location.



You can also use duplicity to restore your files with following command



duplicity restore file:///path/to/downloaded/deja-dup/files /path/to/restore
