I have a folder that contains multiple subdirectories. I would like to copy the contents of the folder over ftp (using lftp preferably) instead of the entire folder.
When I use the mirror command, it seems to copy the folder over, which means that my files are one level higher than expected.
This should be very simple for experts in here.

I have a problem with my netbook (Linux o.s.) I was deleting a few photos from inside 'My Office' folder when entire folder disappeared. Not just the files, the entire folder. This has never happened before and I have lost the files I was working on, as I carelessly didn't 'back up' as I went along. Can I retrieve the folder and/or contents, even with my limited computer knowledge?
I have some personal photos and I doesn't like to disclose it to anyone. But I need a copy of each of them in U1. So, I put all of them in the U1 folder and they were uploaded to my U1 account. Then I removed all of them from the folder. Because, someone may see them when they open the U1 folder. I believed that copies of these photos reside in the U1 account.

Because I'm using a laptop, I've set up Back in Time to back up to a folder stored on my only hard disk, /backup.
I have the folder "Backup yzT Jan-01-2013". I've made also a script for do a backup everyday.
The problem I'm facing is how to rename the folder day by day according to date? Get the new name is easy, it's just
"/home/yzT/Backup yzT `date '+%b-%d-%Y'`"
However how can I select the folder "Backup yzT Jan-01-2013" exactly? Because every day it will be different.
