Double-click the zip-file. That should result in a .scriv folder/package.

Oh, it was simple. I should have thought of that.

Thanks!

, I exported it as a Scrivener project and boom - there it all was, ready to be worked on. It's definitely worth looking at. Hi JT, On the basis of your post, I came back to look at it again to see if it might help me sort a plot problem. But I can't seem to work out the mechanics of getting the St...

When I open the labels pane, to customise it - I can add and delete labels - I can edit their names - I can't change the colours of the labels. The window, and the manual, say I should double click the coloured disk associated with each label name, to edit it. But it doesn't work: double clicking th...

I've imported a couple of pictures into my manuscript, and stupidly didn't use the 'use linked image option' and worse, neglected to keep a note of where I imported them from, or what the file name was- so I can't search my HD find the original again.

My problem My manuscripts for educational textbooks contain three different kinds of text, all jumbled together on the page in an apparently random manner.

I'm sure this must be possible, but I can't find an indication of how to do it. I'd like to make a couple of new categories for some of my templates, rather than just having everything thrown in a heap in MISCELLANEOUS or NON-FICTION. So when I start a new project, I can choose from mygroup1, and se...

Hello. I've jut got my shiny new computer, and loaded scrivener no problem, but Scapple gives me a Wrong S/N error, even though I'm copying and pasting from the licence file.

I bought the program with order ST710441018 a long time ago. What am I doing wrong?

TIA

Hello people I have a long project consisting of folders, sub folders and documents, whose outline structure was created via an import in opml format.
