Should i reset Sync or unpair WIFI?

This isn't happening for me, so You'll need to work step-by-step to see where the problem is.
You could start by creating a small test file and check whether that syncs. That will then discount a corruption in your Outline file.
If it still crashes (on which device?) you may have to reinstall MLO.
If a different outline file doesn't crash, I would suggest either
(1) sending your outline file to the MLO team to see whether they can pinpoint the corrupted task, or
(2) try copying a beach at a time over to your new, test outline to see if you can pinpoint the corruption yourself.
Good luck!

Where should i create the test file? On the phone? How? The synchronization worked ok for one week.
Thank You

By the way, have you tried to create a blank profile on iPhone MLO and resync it with the Windows MLO??
Also, you may try to delete completly the MLO from iPhone and install it again from AppStore.
And regarding your question:
Where should i create the test file? On the phone? How? The synchronization worked ok for one week.
Create a new profile in MLO for iPhone.
Pair the newly created MLO profile with the Windows MLO.
Be sure you are on the same WiFi network.
Try to sync.
If it gives you no error, then MLO application on your iPhone is working fine.
That means that the problem may be inside of your Outline.
I would also try to sync the windows MLO to the Cloud, and then sync the iPhone MLO to the cloud too.
Maybe there is something wrong with the WiFi Sync. In this case, the cloud sync may be a temporary workaround.
sorry for my English.
Best regards

Glad to hear you've managed to get WiFi sync working.
To get rid of the rubbish on your phone, you can delete the whole profile on your iPhone and sync a blank profile with the file from the PC that you want to use. Alternatively, if it's just a few tasks you need to delete, try using multiselect on the iPhone, or on the PC.

By the way, this is not related to you question, it's just a friendly advice:
MLO for Windows has a powerful backup function. Check it in the settings.
Thus you can always revert to previous working profile if something goes wrong (if you delete by mistake a branch of tasks for example).

I learned how to delete a profile on the phone. (You have to add a second one before;-). Is there a manual for MLO iPhone/iPad like there is for MLO Windows?
The Wifi-Sync with the new profile unfortunately does not work. MLO 2 on my iPhone crashes again. So does that mean something is wrong with my .ml file? What could that be? How can i repair it?
I think of purchasing the cloud aboservice. Does this work more reliable? What´s your experience?
BTW. I already use the backupfunction of MLO Windows. It indeed works very well.

About the iOS MLO manual.
Here is a related thread

About the ml file.
I would contact support at this moment.
About Wi-Fi sync vs the cloud

Imho, the advantage of the cloud is that you can send an email to the cloud account and it will be placed as a task into inbox. Also you can sync when you are outside of your wifi network.

I deleted stepwise about 20% of my tasks and pressed the syncbutton. After doing this 3-Times it worked. Then i pressed CTRL + Z (Undo) to undelete those tasks again. Then i had my normal MLO Win again. And Sync still worked.
But most of my tasks were missing on the phone. They only appeared if i changed them before Sync on the phone. I executed Reset Sync on the phone. Then i had all tasks again and Sync still worked.
But sorry this behaviour is kind of buggy/unpredictable. Together with the other bugs i discovered i´m still not sure to confide in MLO and it´s cloud service.
BTW. The differences between WIFI and Cloud are obvious. In the long run WIFI is of course not an option. My question was "Is Cloud Sync more reliable? Do you use it already? Whats your experience?
Thank You

Your "bug" has not been confirmed by other users. Maybe it's not a bug. There may be other problems which caused the application to crash. Example: problems with wifi, problems with file system and sdcard, custom build ROM, conflict with other installed applications and so on...
Dear Alex, MLO is a set off tools which you may use to create your custom TASK MANAGING SYSTEM. MLO is a mature application, and in most cases the discovered bugs have minor importance.
Every build is carefully tested by beta testers before releasing it to public.
I wish you to not hurry with making conclusions about the MLO due to some problems/bugs but to study its power step by step until you create a SYSTEM which will WORK WELL for you
Best wishes

I'm using wifi sync because I do not trust to any cloud service including dropbox, google drive and so on.

Regarding the cloud service, it's brilliant and reliable. It just works. I sync multiple devices including Windows, Android and iOS, and this would be impossible with Wifi.
