We have just launched the update for Windows 1.2.1 and I wanted to let you know. If you are running Scrivener 1.0.3, you can update to the latest version by choosing ‘Check for Updates…’ from the Help menu, then simply follow the upgrade prompts.
New manual for 1.2.1 Windows version says anything can now be printed using control p or file print, EVEN OUTLINE OR CORKBOARD displays. Still doesn’t work for me. If I open a corkbord or outline screen, it prints a blank document. Hopefully I’m doing something wrong.
Yup!
Also, if you’ve done anything fancy with saving your compile settings you might want to back up those files too, but you’d know if you’ve done that.
OK, sorry. I had to delete the history of my Internet navigator. I tried to download the file earlier, but I canceled the download because I was not sure it was the last release…
Thanks.
Sorry I haven’t been on for a while, I have been busy between life, work, writing. I was pleasantly surprised by the update notice when I started Scrivener this morning.
One small suggestion: It would make people breath easier if the update dialog box allowed the user to save and close any open projects before downloading and installing updates.
I am happy to say that I was able to download and start the install process, then close my project before the install started. I am also happy to report that my project opened intact when I launched Scrivener after the install.

Um … yeah … no.
I choose ‘Check for Updates…’ from the Help menu
Then … nothing.
I tried several times.
Nada.
So I visited the Literature and Latte site, and I was underwhelmed by the information available about the new upgrade for Scrivener for Windows, which I had read about via your FaceBook feed.
Hrm.
So I tried downloading a new version.
No information was offered regarding the version of this Scrivener for Windows installer I was downloading.
Perhaps naively, I ran the newly downloaded installer.
What could go wrong? Right?
Again, there was no explicit notice which version of Scrivener for Windows I was installing.
At least you get points for consistency!
Finally, fingers-crossed, I started up Scrivener on my PC, and glory be!
Not only did Scrivener STILL start up correctly, but checking the About Scrivener from the Help window revealed I was indeed now running version 1.2.1.0 - 18 Jun 2012!
My blind faith in normalized process was thusly rewarded.
