Pro: easy to tell which backup is which.

Con: none that I can think of.

I must say I'm absolutely stunned by the sheer numbers of people who come on this forum to say that Scrivener has somehow eaten their work, and that the responses are so mild, like "well, find your backups" --- as if it was perfectly normal for a program to lose one's work! Hello??!! It's...

JimRac - good points. If a project is broken during a botched sync, is it just the Binder (the XML file) that is actually corrupted? If so, even damaged projects can be re-constructed by going into the project folders and retrieving the RTF text files. It's a pain, but doable. Any file that has cha...

Did you put "Introduction" in the Title Prefix or Suffix for that section layout, by any chance?

HELLO! I need your help once again. (will he ever finish this damn novel?!? I certainly hope not!) Americans, Australians, New Zealander’s, Canadans... Can you name for me please some varieties of apple that are common in your jurisdictions? Bonus points if you highlight which varieties you think h...

On the Mac, each user has a completely separate Applications folder and a completely separate Documents folder. Install Scrivener for each user just as you would for yourself.

As suggested, run Activity Monitor to see what is actually consuming the CPU. If it's definitely Scrivener, use the View -> Sample Process command, and send the results to our support address. You might also use the Console application (in your Applications/Utilities folder) to see if any error mess...

Here's what I would do: Split the document so that the OCR-mangled sections are in their own sub-documents. (Documents -> Split.) Set the formatting you want as the project default. (Project -> Project Settings -> Formatting) Select the OCR-mangled sub-documents, and use the Documents -> Convert -> ...

I'm sorry, I'm not sure I understand the issue.

What version of Scrivener do you have?

What happens when you try to open an existing project?

Katherine

Mac Scrivener and iOS Scrivener are separate products requiring separate purchases.

iOS Scrivener is only available via the Apple iOS App Store.

It could be, sure. I guess I'll keep an eye on it. I tend to walk away and leave the Mac on when I've finished, but yesterday I noticed (to your exact point :) ) an upload of a 1MB file was taking 16 minutes. 16. 16 minutes? With a fiber connection? Something's not right there, and it isn't Scriven...

I am not sure to what extent scrivener could make use of this but wouldn’t support for apfs snapshots, at least with macos and ios platforms, greatly improve reliability and speed of device syncing since only changes would have to be updated rather than entire files? I’m by no means an expert just ...

/scratcheshead. With OneDrive, the issue with Scriv sync seemed to be Scriv would save often, confusing OD, and borking the cloud data files. Does Scriv 3 sync with a higher frequency that now causes DP issues? I mean, if mine is an isolated case it's probably just DP being a clown. But if it's not...

Edit -> Copy Special -> Copy Documents as ToC?
