Where is the backup option?
« on: January 23, 2015, 12:40:23 pm »
I must be blind ... but I can't find the option to backup my accounts and settings which is mentioned many times here in the forum :-(

I am on version 1.5.1.13, and would like to backup my settings. I have reached a nice and convenient setup now and wanted to preserve that just in case it ever gets lost.

Please someone point me into the right direction ... Thanks!

ohhh ... thanks! Merci Beaucoup ;-)

I was not aware that the settings menu looks different for the various screens!

Anyway, starting this I run into another problem. The settings can't be stored to my external sd-card? Why is that and what to do? I have read somewhere about Android apps not being able to access the sd-card ... but is there a way to get around this?

EDIT: Found this: newbielink:http://www.aqua-mail.com/forum/index.php?topic=2627.msg11209#msg11209 [nonactive]

Guess I will have to store to internal and then somehow transfer it from there. I'm not ready to root my device for just this.

You can also save your backup file to Dropbox, if you have a Dropbox account.

Details for "How to" look at this thread / post:
