Changing password

umitgunes

Hi,

I just changed my password on https://www.zotero.org/settings/account

I am using destktop app and it did not asked me the new password after I changed it. It can still sync? How can it possible? It should ask me the new password to sync?

Thnak you

Changing your password doesn't disconnect existing apps (which don't store your password or use it to sync).

You can see the apps that are syncing and remove any that shouldn't be there from the settings:

Thnak you.

If I remove on of them, should I login with the new password?

I’m not sure what you mean. But once you change your password, you have to use that password going forward to log in.

This keys are the login session, right?

If yes, when I delete one of key, then the session will be interrupted and I should login with the new password.

Thank you

I mean, yes, but there's no need to delete a key if you're actually using that device to sync. But if you're not sure, you can certainly delete all of them and log in again on all devices.
