I was browsing some files and right clicked to "Copy" something and accidentally clicked "Sync with Ubuntu One". Now my computer is trying to sync over 10GB of data to Ubuntu One. How do I tell it to stop trying to sync that folder?

Right click on the folder and you will see the option "Stop syncing on Ubuntuone"

and if that does not work you can do this from the Terminal.

You can stop synchronizing a file by running the following command in a terminal session (Applications->Accessories->Terminal):

u1sdtool --list-folders

The first command should return something like this:

id=c4d1e6f9-931b-45c6-8fac-830390815242 subscribed=True path=/home/username/Documents

Copy the part that comes after "id=", which in the example above would be "c4d1e6f9-931b-45c6-8fac-830390815242" and put it in the next command where it says ID-FROM-COMMAND-ABOVE.

u1sdtool --unsubscribe-folder=ID-FROM-COMMAND-ABOVE

That should stop synchronizing that folder for you.

u1sdtool --unsubscribe-folder=ID-FROM-COMMAND-ABOVEThat should stop synchronizing that folder for you.

And in this situation (where a folder was accidentally selected to sync) you probably want it completely deleted, in which case you would run the following command in a terminal session:

u1sdtool --delete-folder=ID-FROM-COMMAND-ABOVE

That command will completely remove the folder and all files from the server.

Thank you,
