 * Hey hey,
 * i got a big issue coming up by updating on the new version of your event calendar….
 * It says: “target folder already exists. /mnt/web4/c3/56/5413156/htdocs/neu/wp-
   content/plugins/all-in-one-event-calender/
 * All my entries and the whole calendar is gone now….what is very very bad, cause
   my business is still running.
 * So please can you help me fixing this problem, as fast as possible!?!?
 * Thanks a lot, greets

 * Hi,
 * Do you have a database backup? It seems that you have tried to upload the plugin
   zip file to an existing folder.

 * Now, i have. but I haven`t had before I tried to upgrade the plugin.
 * No, I just clicked on upgrade on the dashboard at the plugin category.
    And then
   the plugin was completely gone.
 * I tried to reinstall it but then the message says:
 * “target folder already exists. /mnt/web4/c3/56/5413156/htdocs/neu/wp-content/
   plugins/all-in-one-event-calender/
 * So, what can I do now?

 * Upload the latest version via FTP, activate the plugin and check if events are
   still there.
