On desktop, it is recommended to work on a local copy of a project, and back that project up to a cloud service, e.g. Dropbox. On desktop, backup settings are for individual projects, so it's ok to create a subdirectory within ~/Dropbox/Apps/Scrivener/.

So for example:

~/Desktop/local/path/my-project.scriv (local working copy) > ~/Dropbox/Apps/Scrivener/my-project/my-project.scriv (cloud backup)

The iPad syncs to the /Apps/Scrivener/ directory within the Dropbox cloud service. All the projects found there (including in subdirectories) will show up on the Scrivener home screen.

  • Scrivener projects are saved in ~/Dropbox/Apps/Scrivener/
  • It is ok to have subdirectories for individual projects, but desktop syncs on a project-by-project basis, while iPad has only one sync setting.
