Desktop and Web Libraries Simultaneously
I have read many posts about the desire to have multiple windows open, many of them six or seven years old, so I'd like to get clear on what can be done and what should not NOW.
First, I understand about the desktop software being only open once per profile/data set/software copy. Here are my questions:
1. Can I have my desktop software open and in use and bring up the same data in the web library at the same time?
2. Can I have the web library open in multiple browser tabs accessing the same data?
3. Can I open browser tabs to the web libraries of different Zotero profiles/data sets simultaneously?
4. If I'm not supposed to open two web libraries simultaneously, but do it accidentally, what damage is likely to be done?
Thanks!

DonnaCoxBakerWonderful! I tested and it works great, except for triggering the expected error if I try to change the same record at the same time in two different places. Very useful.
