Questions about Zotero file paths using desktop, laptop, and macbook with Google Drive
Hi, I got a new macbook but have a trouble syncing files using Google Drive.
I set Custom Location (Zotfile Preferences -> Location of Files) as "G:\My Drive\Zotero Attachment" for both laptop and desktop (which is the paths of Google Drive I save files on Zotero). Files I uploaded on desktop and laptop synced well. But the paths to Google Drive were set differently in Mac (it was automatic, when you installed Goole Drive, mac set the paths on its own) to "/User/myname/Library/Cloudstorage/GoogleDrive-my email address/My Drive/Zotero Attachment." Is it the reason why the file I uploaded in desktop doesn't appear in mac? (The message: The attachment could not be found). I set everything else the same. Your help would be highly appreciated. Thanks!!
