Installed Springseed here (http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2013/07/springseed-note-taking-app-for-ubuntu) : Note taking app on Ubuntu 12.04 lts i386, just wont work. it pretty much installed correctly, downloaded the .deb from the website here (http://getspringseed.com/) and installed it via software center. The thing just won't start ? On clicking the icon post- installation, blah, NO GUI, nothing shows up et all !? Is it with me only ? Uninstalled the app, downloaded again and ran it, No success. Care to comment ? ! Thanks.

I solved the whole query and made the icon under the Unity _ Application's hood to respond again. Its actually simple.

Open a terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T) and then write gksu nautilus, It will ask for your password. File manager Nautilus will open, (be careful here).

Go to /usr/share/applications directory and find "SpringSeed". Right click on it, and go to properties, under command section this will be written:

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/springseed /opt/springseed/springseed-bin

Select all that text and delete it, and write:

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/springseed/springseed-bin

That's all. Works fine for me. And guess will work for everyone else as well. ! :)

Thanks Mitch and Micheal Harker. Now close Nautilus, exit that terminal, go to Unity, search for Springseed, woila, it will run. ! :)
