old laptop is gone and a new one is in place. I have Scrivener downloaded but I need to sync with my existing dropbox files. Is there a simple tutorial for this?
Probably the Dropbox site has one. This is a Dropbox task, not a Scrivener task.
Last time I did it, it was pretty simple, though.
-
Download and install Dropbox software on new computer.
-
Login to Dropbox account with existing username and password.
-
Wait for sync to finish.
-
Ensure that folder containing Scrivener projects is configured to be “available offline.”
-
Wait for sync to finish if necessary.
-
Done.
Edit: Oh, and don’t try to open any projects until after Step 6. Remember that the initial sync will take longer.
