I paid for two versions of Scrivener and you still can’t sync between them.
Come on. It’s 2024.

Since you haven’t bothered to provide any details about your devices, your syncing service(s), your symptoms, or how you’ve tried to fix things, I can’t be bothered guessing.
Here’s L&L’s Cloud-Sync Knowledge Base article.
HTH,

I’ve (many of us have) been syncing seamlessly between Mac and iOS since 2016, and Win since 2021 with ZERO problems. Didn’t have to wait for 2024
SO, as Jim said, more info needed.
In addition to his points, what versions/platforms assuming the link he provided doesn’t fix your issue.
Thats’s right. You can’t sync between version 1 and 3, you convert, and Bob’s your uncle.
The issue I’m having is that Scrivener docs that I created on my iPhone won’t open on my desktop.
I get an error message"The document “XXX.scriv” could not be opened."
It asks me to show package contents and search for a file entltled “binder.scrivproj”.
Can’t find that, though I do find “binder.mob”.
Now, if I create a project on my Mac, the I have no trouble opening it on my iPhone.
Files are missing as probably Dropbox deleted them. Most likely incomplete sync, possibly caused by you have a Dropbox setting to keep files “online” whereas Scrivener needs them “offline”.

It wasn’t really Sync issue.
It was that if I create a new file on my iPhone, I can’t open it on my Mac.
However, if I create on my Mac, then I can open it on my iPhone.
So I basically exported as PDFs all my files, and created new files on my Mac.
It took some time, but now I can see these files on both my iPhone and my Mac.
I have all created a few “Blank” files on my Mac, just in case I would want to start a new file on my iPhone.
Did you read and act on the link that I posted?
If not, the problem is very likely to come back.
I did. Thank you for your help!
