Open the project in SiOS and you’ll see your updates. Remember, always close the project on your laptop/computer and then sync it on the iPad or you will corrupt your files.

Now go to your iPad and you’ll see a small orange triangular icon on your project indicating the project needs syncing to update it. If you have linked a project between the iPad and your Mac, but you’re currently working on your computer or laptop, you’ll see the Dropbox icon on your toolbar periodically syncing. Once it has finished syncing, you will see the project(s) in the Binder under Dropbox. You’ll see a window open that says, “Syncing with Dropbox”. Let it sync and when it’s finished-you’ll see a green tick mark indicating that syncing is finito-open SiOS. At the top of the Project, click Ctrl+Project Name and that will show you the path of where it’s located.Īfter you found the project on your hard drive, close the project in Scrivener and drag it over to the App/Scrivener folder in Dropbox. If you don’t know you where you saved it, open Scrivener and go to the project.

Next, go to your Mac and find the Scrivener project you want to sync onto your iPad. Open it and you’ll see that Scrivener automatically created an App/Scrivener Folder in Dropbox. Tap “Done”.Ī couple of asides…if you have the Dropbox desktop app installed on your Mac, you’ll see the icon on the top toolbar. We’re interested in Apps/Scrivener, which is the recommended option, this is where all your projects will be placed. Scrivener will create a folder in Dropbox called Apps/Scrivener and include another one called Other Folders. If you have Dropbox installed, it will ask whether you allow Scrivener to access Dropbox files and folders. If by chance you don’t have Dropbox on your iPad, you will be asked to sign in using your username and password. You’ll have two options: Update from iTunes and Link to Dropbox. Second, to link to DropBox tap the circular arrows on the top right-hand of the screen. Once it’s downloaded onto your iPad, open Scrivener.
#SCRIVENER FOR IOS DOWNLOAD#
The first step is to download SiOS from the Mac store. For now, I’ll explain –as simply as possible–how to get your projects up, running, and syncing between your Mac and your iPad and vice-versa. Also, I’ll offer 1:1 private and group tutorials (email for rates). It turns out I wasn’t that far off-base and I’m happy to announce that Simply Scrivener will have SiOS posts. So I went and asked a friend to show me what the hell I was doing wrong. What I needed was someone like me who could spell it out and show pictures of the process for each step. I watched three videos: Scrivener’s, Elaine Giles, and Author Strong and Publishing Tools and I was still confused about the process. Syncing a project was not as intuitive for me as it was for other users. So I looked online et voila! I discovered on eBay a refurbished fourth-generation iPad reasonably priced. But after a few days, I thought that if I teach a couple of classes that would pay for the iPad and perhaps it was worth the investment. It would have to wait because I had more pressing bills to pay. Later, I was approached by a few people about teaching SiOS tutorials and I had to tell them that at that moment I couldn’t afford an iPad. When a friend told me how much she loved it that “hmm” became a yearning. However, my “meh” changed to a “hmm” when I started reading the SiOS tutorials posted on Facebook. When the beta-testing was announced for SiOS, again, the reaction was “meh” because I had no intention of purchasing an iPad.

In all honesty, when Keith at Literature and Latte first announced he was working on a iOS version, my reaction was “meh.” I recently had acquired the MacBook Pro and had downloaded Scrivener for Mac so I was as happy as my Jack Russell terrier is in a pile of warm laundry. But this post should, I hope, be useful to those of you who have long hankered for an iPad version of Scrivener.Īfter many trials and tribulations, Scrivener for iOS (iPad and iPhone) debuted at the Mac Store on July 20, 2016. Since that last one, I moved to Vermont and I’ve been busy writing, teaching Scrivener classes, more writing, and learning to draw. It’s been a long time since I added a post.
