Yes, I can reconstruct it all *I think*, but I lost all my research, and all my notes from June 7th to July 6th. I didn’t lose the research papers, because Dropbox was saving them. I just lost my notes. (I read a couple of books a day plus some random number of papers, so that is a lot of damned work). But what bothers me most is that I also lost 30 days of outline along with the notes. I want to cry. And it’s entirely my fault. I was traveling and I have TWO time machines and I didn’t bring the small one with me.
So, I’ve now changed Scrivener to save the backup into a dropbox directory. But I really don’t really understand what happened. I think somehow I accidentally saved the doc to an alternative directory – maybe downloads? And it’s not clear where you’re saving it – it’s invisible and happens in the background. And so when I lost the drive I lost the downloads folder, and 30 days of notes with it.
Sigh.
Well, I’m caught up with posting to my site (archiving). And I guess it’s back to work at reconstruction…
