      @kurt do you get any errors in the terminal, maybe your api key is incorrect etc.

      Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track

          Thank’s a lot for your help, but strawberry allready repaired my mistakes, so by now i’m fine, just thinking about what is the best way to save such a running system, so I can go back when things go wrong and I found out things go very quick wrong :)
          So have a nice day and Thank you

            I would create an archive of the entire magicmirror folder.

            cd ~
            tar -cvf mirror.tar /MagicMirror

                This command will create a file called mirror.tar in your home directory on your raspberry. You can copy/transfer it to your computer with filezilla, the same way you did to copy new files to your raspberry

                    Sorry didn’t happen,
                    he refused “cowardly or yellow” this is the translation I found, to create an empty archiv.

                    pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ tar -cvf mirror.tar/MagicMirror
                    tar: Anlegen eines leeren Archivs wird feige verweigert.
                    „tar --help“ oder „tar --usage“ gibt weitere Informationen.

                      Two things -

                      1. You’re in the MagicMirror directory. Type this:
                      cd ~
                      
                      1. You need a space here:
                      tar -cvf mirror.tar/MagicMirror
                      

                      should be

                      tar -cvf mirror.tar /MagicMirror
                      

                      What ship would bear me ever back across so wide a Sea?
