Thanks all for the advice which encouraged me to try again. I followed suggestions above, and combined outlines into one, and the sync process is working and I am enjoying using the app. However I have not yet tested sync much on outlines with nested todo lists and dependent tasks, where the checkbox status used not to sync reliably for me.
I emailed the developer to query the ten outline limit in cloud storage some weeks ago - I did not get a reply yet. Perhaps he is busy and maybe there are issues in the design which I am unaware of which require this limitation. I have found a product - not as good - which saves to dropbox, so when my cloud sync subscription runs out year after next I will review things again, but for now I stay with MLO and hope for removal of the limit, and a common file structure between platforms.
