I've searched around and watched videos... no one seems to mention how to close the snapshots pane.... is there some short cut to close it?

I do the opposite--save my main file in the cloud, and my backup to my hard drive. Every once in a while, such as before a trip, I copy everything important to a thumb drive and/or sync drop box to a second laptop.

Sorry I missed this earlier, Lisa. For some reason I'm not getting comment notifications. The built-in tutorial is a good place to start to see what it can do and learn about its major features. Don't feel like you have to remember or use it all, just know that those things exist so if you want them some day you can look them up.

I also have some blog posts on my website, and L&L has some free videos on theirs. To start, all you need to know is how to create a new text document and start writing in it. You can add more bells and whistles as you get more comfortable. Good luck!

I tried to learn scrivener last year but just was too busy to do all the tutorials myself. What's the quickest, easiet way to get started with it??
I just know it will help me organize and write my novel, if I can just figure out how to use it!

Laura, I keep all my backups in the cloud. At least in different folders. You can designate a folder for backups from inside Scrivener so you don't have to think about it.

Thanks for highlighting yet another great feature I haven't been using to its full extent.

John, it doesn’t have to be complicated. I mostly take snapshots and never look at them again. I rarely compare, and only occasionally search. I just like knowing I have all my versions. 😉

Hi, Sue. Yes, Snapshots are on all versions, but Windows is missing some of the newest features. So, you have them. Good luck! I’ll be at RWA, so it’d be great to meet you.
