Backing up Stickies notes: another method
Backing up Stickies notes: another method
Simon Harper offers another method for backing up the StickiesDatabase file (see
yesterday's coverage). This one requires using Terminal, but is probably faster to accomplish:
"I use two one line commands that will backup and restore the Stickies database. I keep these as clippings files in a folder on my desktop. Just open Terminal and drag either the backup or restore command into the Terminal window. Then hit return.
Backup: <cp Library/.StickiesDatabase Documents/NewStuff/StickiesDatabase>
Restore: <cp Documents/NewStuff/StickiesDatabase Library/.StickiesDatabase>
This makes a file called StickiesDatabase in a folder called NewStuff in my documents folder. Just change the NewStuff/StickiesDatabase to any other directory and or filename if desired or if you don't use a NewStuff folder like me. Same for the restore."
