AAARG! How often does it happen to you? I was just posting to my blog about my new computer, but I went to delete a smiley and somehow the browser read the backspace key as hitting the back button. I hit the forward button right away, but alas, my post was gone.:mad: Anybody got good “Oops, I deleted it.” stories?
BA used to “remember” a post you were typing if you hit the back button (as long as your post can be accessed by hitting the forward button) but that seems to have disappeared. Shame.
Are you using Firefox?
'Cause I’ve had some weird(irritating, annoying, angering) stuff like that happen to me…
Just a day or so ago something weird happened and I lost HALF my bookmarks, HALF, not ALL.
Odd…
Luckily I’m paranoid enough now of Firefox to have a few backup bookmark files…
GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
Yeah, Firefox just ate all my bookmarks a while ago and I was sooooooo pissed.
I back them up regularly now.
All my MSN contacts vanished a while ago…
i accidentally back buttoned this post. took me forever to rewrite it.
I usually use ctrl-c on my posts if they start getting long, so i can just paste it back in the field if something happens. I’m really not too worried about losing all seven of my bookmarks- I usually just end up typing them in manually before even remembering that I have the page bookmarked.
However, i have a tendency to accidentally close/crash GIMP or blender eithr just before or while I’m saving… much agony and tearing of hair follows.
I spent about 3 hours sorting and copying all the data from my hard drive
on to a DVD .
Then formated the drive, reinstalled windows. Put my DVD in and on it was one
text file called new text document.txt
Dangitt Man!!!
You format without checking the backup for any faults?!
Confidence isn’t always a good thing…
You get used things working well and a big bump comes along.
Everyone does somewhere somehow.
tell me about it. i had an hour and a half of kickass work going on in gimp, and it crashed before saving… makes me soo maaad. :ba:
