> I write the synopses for my screenplays using corkboard view. I save often. Unfortunately, rather frequently, scrivener deletes all the text from several, seemingly random, note cards. Why is it doing this, and how can I stop it from happening? I’ve already had to re-write synopses far too many times. It’s getting very frustrating. I am using scrivener for Windows running Windows 7. Any help would be appreciated.

Described symptoms match yours :

> I added a couple of dozen cards to a project yesterday and closed the file. This morning, the cards were all there, but the synopsis text on about half of them (the most recently added, I think) has disappeared. The back-up zip file is in the same state. I’ve just finished a screenplay without seeing anything like this, but this makes me wonder how much I can trust the program. Any idea what has happened? Can I get this text back?

The use of a cloud service seems to be the, or a potential cause of the issue, in both of these cases.

Is your project stored locally?  
Do you use or have OneDrive active on your computer?
