Thanks for your rapid response, Sandy.

I actually was using version 0.14.0. I'm surprised it is not the latest 
version (0.14.1) since this is the Tomboy that came in a new 
installation of Ubuntu 9.04. I would have thought that I would have 
gotten the newest version when I ran the update manager, which I have 
done a couple of times already.

I'm glad Tomboy makes backup copies of the notes automatically. I went 
to  ~/.tomboy/Backup and I see a lot of notes there. So I assume the 
ones that got deleted in the synchronization process will be there. What 
I wonder now is if there is an easy way to restore the notes I want. I 
had them organized in different notebooks so if I have to open them one 
by one to figure out their contents and then archive them in a given 
folder it might be a bit of a pain.

Of course, this is much better than loosing them altogether but I'd like 
to know whether there is an easy way to recover the notes to their 
previous state. I don't see any option in the menus so I really don't 
know how to go about recovering them.
