I am going to have a rant as it's Friday and I just updated editor and lost a load of client changes and need a vent to make me feel better.

I normally make sure I've posted all changes before updating, but today I didn't.

When it asks if you want to backup, why the hell back up the existing account? If I want them I can download them from AdWords!

This has really got to me. GOOGLE - Sort it out. I spoke to one of your staff, who sent me a nice document on how to get the backup files saying -

"It isn't possible to retrieve comments and unposted changes for an account once you've downloaded it. We apologize for this inconvenience."

GREAT! Thanks a million - You could have told me before updating that it was a useless backup.

That's me feeling a bit better, and maybe someone will read this and fix the problem.

edit: I just found out how to save all unposted changes. A bit late, but it would have been nice to get pointed to this doc before updating.....

Aaach.

briggidere, I saw your post in the other thread before I saw this one, and already responded there.

I do sincerely apologize. I hate hearing this stuff, and will make sure that the AE team sees this thread.

I am sure it sounds trite, but truly, I thank you for your patience.
