and my computer is prompting me to upgrade. The daughter who set up my laptop is now in the military (OTS) and I don't have access to her. I can't call her right now, and I have a few questions.
The current version I use is 11.10, and I've loved it. Here are my questions:
1. I don't know which version I should upgrade to. I'm an author, so I have a great deal of reference bookmarks, professional contacts, and the books that I'm currently working on, saved on this laptop (but my books, and all my music and personal photos, are also backed up on in a cloud and on my external terabyte drive.) I do not do any spreadsheets, charts, or anything like that. I write fiction.
2. If I upgrade will I lose any information on this laptop? All my important information is backed up as of last night. But I seem to remember my daughter doing this once before and other than the user interface looking different, all my information was still on the laptop.
3. I never did learn how to back up all my bookmarks. I really cannot afford to lose my research links. Will my bookmarks folder go empty again? Is there a way to save those links?
If someone can please reply, I would be most appreciative. I have two more months before the darling daughter will come home for a few days before leaving me again for another training facility in another part of the country. Currently Ubuntu is prodding me about two to three times per week, and I expect it will only get more insistent before I have to do something.
Thanks!
Sandy
