This is a complication for me too.

I NEED to backup my data, which I use Dropbox for. Since BumpTop is designed to hold photos and documents, I need things things to be backed up.

I have set my desktop as my dropbox folder so everything that happens on my desktop is backed up to Dropbox.

This works fine for the most part, but I would love to be able to keep my super organized folder structures (so I can use the dropbox folder on macs and other computers that don't have BumpTop) while also using BumpTop's stacks on my desktop. There should be a way to just dump all files within a folder AND its subfolders onto your BumpTop so you can organize them there, but without changing the underlying folder structure.

As it is now, I have to carefully makes piles of folders and name piles well so my Dropbox folder is readable on my Mac, and not a huge mess of files.

I managed to download the weather widget but the ZIP is corrupt. This site is looking nice and sketchy... (Joomla, yay!). Also how do you actually install one of the widgets?

To answer: the fix is to enable VSync.

Right click on recycle bin, hit properties, uncheck "Display delete confirmation dialog". Done! :)

Dragging icons is jerky/wobbly and glitchy.

When I drag icons on the desktop, the animation and movement is very jerky and wobbly and not smooth at all. Running Windows 7 x64 and a Radeon HD 4850 with latest drivers. Any ideas?

Same issue - apple protected songs that I've purchased get hooked thorugh iTunes correctly but they just play blank - aka no sound.

Using Vista 64 + iTunes 64

EDIT: also, I have The Fireman's new album in unprotected Apple Lossless, which plays fine in Songbird.
