I finally got back my old version through dropbox.
Ignore the previous post. Thanks.

Thank you. I downloaded Scrivener on my ipad. How do I connect it with the project I created on the mac and that is in dropbox on the ipad?

Thank you for all of the responses. Which app do I need? There is one called Scrivener which says it is a productivity app for $19.99 and one called Scrivo Pro for Scriveners - writing tool for writers for $7.99. I am not sure which is the one that will sync with the program on my MAC.

If Scrivener is on the ipad, will it sync with dropbox and look the same as it does on the Mac and can you write on it on the ipad?

I have the app on my MAC but can't not figure out how to get it to work on my ipad without paying extra for the app. How do it link up the registration on the ipad?
