Using current Zotero database/files with new user account without deleting old local account files
I don't have access to the original account or email that Zotero used to sync with years ago. Now with a new username/account and trying to Sync, Zotero states a popup warning that all local data will be deleted:
>This Zotero database was last synced with a different account (“xx”) from the one >you are attempting to sync with (“yy”). If you continue, all Zotero libraries >associated with the “xx” account will be removed from this computer.
>
>Before continuing, make sure all data and files you wish to keep have been synced >with the “xx” account or you have a backup of your Zotero data directory.
I would like to keep the local database/attachments from the "xx" account and just sync this with the new Zotero online sync account "yy". Is this possible?
Thanks.
