Make sure home/andy/downloads exist.

so why don't you create that?

Fixit7 07-10-2016 09:08 AM

Thanks, it worked.

Even if I have an unneeded dir.

you installed something which requires a configured download dir. I do not know if you need that software or not...

Fixit7 07-10-2016 09:23 AM

Ubuntu has some klunky ways of installing software.

I understand that it is supposed to be able to use .deb packages, but some of them did not run nor did they make any menu entry.

But I like Ubuntu.

My webcam which did not record audio on other distros, did work though the volume is really low on playback.

Ubuntu 16.04. 64bit/mate/. In my case I have renamed my main computer user, so after the old home directory was removed I got this message.

I created my old directory again
/sudo mkdir home/oldname/.
Then I was able to issue the the problem in application. I renamed the path to the new existing Download directory. And again I deleted the directory.
sudo rm -rf oldname/

I edited the issue in the application with command blueman-services
I have changed local services/Transfer
