I just got a new computer, moving from Windows to Mac. I synced my data to an account so I could download Zotero on my new Mac with all my data, but when I try and open Zotero, it tells me the Zotero database cannot be opened. I have no idea what this means so I cannot really try and fix it. Please help!

Thank you so much,
Ciara

    The permissions are incorrect on your Zotero data directory. You'll need to correct that so your current macOS user account has read and write access to that folder and all files and folders within it. You can do that from the bottom of the File → Get Info window in Finder. This isn't a problem in Zotero itself.
