Thanks, for some reason I was looking in Sharing options in Word.

A separate file with a name ending in "-journal" is a normal part of an SQLite database. It is a Rollback Journal, a temporary file used to implement atomic commit and rollback capabilities in SQLite.

Thanks for the clues.

That might work or it might cause new problems. Amazon is trying to keep the contents of notebooks in sync with their servers by delivering incremental updates when something changes. Replacing the file with one in a different state might screw that up.

I have not had any issues myself, and the few accounts aren't detailed enough to isolate what might be going on. Usually they involve being offline for some reason (either to save battery or because they're using somewhere without WiFi), and after sync one or more of their notebooks 'disappears' ('58 pages of journal'). Yet the thumbnails still show in iOS/Android apps. I'm guessing sync was incomplete (might have hit some limit on number of offline changes?), notebook database is corrupted or something and Scribe fails to list it.

So restoring an older version of the specific notebook database might allow sync to succeed by applying later changes that were recorded in cloud. But it might not, as you suggest.

But it seems unregister and re-register would let you start fresh with whatever made it to the cloud successfully.

It seems advisable to create smaller notebooks to minimize loss potential, especially now that there are folders you can organize things with, the "don't put all your eggs in one basket principal".
