question about sync, papers

[kevinplarson]

1. First, what is the best method to make sure that my stacks, notes, papers, etc show up on both my office iMac and my MacBook pro (and also iOS devices, I guess). I have used Dropbox in the past, but it doesn't seem to be functioning properly. 

 

2. I am not having success getting papers to load. I've already opened up one, titled it, and added a thing or two. When I try to open it as a tab, it just won't open - this is also after the most recent update.

did anybody see this?

A large part of the Accordance crew is at ETS/SBL for the next week or so, and may not be able to respond as quickly as they normally do.

I think I'm ok with sync. It looks like Dropbox is working.

 

It seems like there is a bug with Papers, though, but maybe I'm wrong.

Papers and Stacks don't sync with dropbox.  Which is frustrating I use an office computer at the church and then my laptop and a surface for coffee shop work.  Yea I'm a bit of a tech collector.  Anyway I found a work around.  When you install set your documents folder to whatever cloud file storage you use. For instance as a Windows user I use onedrive to keep all my office files synced.  I just saved the accordance folder to it and pointed each install to that folder.  One caveat is that I do have to open the folder and open the file manually but it beats not having access to all the work I did at home or the office etc. 

 

Hope that helps.
