How to sync when working offline for several days?

Hey, I often have to work several days offline, and until now it hasn’t been a problem, but I started using my files from google drive. When I go offline, I have to open the project from google drive, but then, where do I save it, and which files need to be copied back to google drive for it to remain updated, and I don’t lose work due to two different versions.

I’m a little confused about how you’ve setup and using an apparently manual process to sync with Google drive for your Scrivener projects.

That being said, L&L has advised that using Google Drive to hold Scrivener projects is risky and may lead to file and/or project corruption.

I use Dropbox for Scrivener project syncing and even with many days “offline”, as long as the device with the “newest” version is synced up to Dropbox Server, then down to other device(s), all works.

Thanks for the tip. Yeah, I think DropBox might be a better option.
