:I also had this problem, and rebooting fixed it. I'm not sure how I killed it in the first place. Another problem I found with Journal is that if you plug a USB flash drive in that already contains a lot of files, like over 2,000 in my case, it takes a long time to index all the files. While it is indexing, it seems to lock up the ability to switch between journal storage and the external storage. Also, is there a way to change the default location that Journal uses for storage, so that it uses my SD card instead? [[User:Paul Bock|Paul Bock]] 14:02, 19 December 2007 (EST)

my journal icon has disappeared how do I get it back. I have pressed the magnifying glass key and it did not work

The first thing to try is rebooting the machine. If this does not fix the problem, you may have an instance of a problem for which we had gotten a few reports. We have a patch for this latter problem and it will be available soon through the automatic update process. Please do report back if the reboot did or did not fix the problem. --Walter 18:12, 14 December 2007 (EST)
