Mmorten,
looking at your logs, it looks like you have bug 576263 . There is a workaround on that bug (posted below). This issue should be fixed in the latest release so make sure you have the latest update. You can do that by going to System > Administration > Update manager.

WORK AROUND:
   1. Quit the Ubuntu One client (open a terminal window & run "u1sdtool -q; killall ubuntuone-login" without the quotes)
   2. Open Applications->Accessories->Passwords and Encryption Keys
   3. Click on the plus symbol next to "Passwords: login" to expand the list
   4. Right-click on the Ubuntu One token and select "Delete"
   5. Go to https://one.ubuntu.com/account/machines/
   6. Click on the checkbox next to your computer
   7. Click the "Remove selected computers" button
   8. Open System --> Preferences -->Ubuntu One
   9. a web page should open, prompting you to add your computer to your Ubuntu One account
  10. Add your computer

thank you,
