Cannot add to group library

DebSchiff
Hi Folks,
I LOVE Zotero, but I can't seem to add anything to my group library. I'd like to move my personal library to the group library and cannot find out how to do that either. Please help! Thanks!
Best,
Deb

    I have the same trouble. It's a private group. I am not the owner. I am an admin, however. When the owner drags a citation from his library to the group library, the group library becomes highlighted and when he releases the mouse button, the item is added to the group library. However, when I try to do the same thing, the group library does not get highlighted and when I release the mouse button, the item does not get added to the group library.

    Ok, we figured it out. I was _not_ an admin and only the owner was allowed to post new items or edit files.

    Anyway, the method is the simple old drag and drop... Drag the reference from your library using the mouse and drop it on the group library. If it doesn't work,
    1) check group library permissions,
    2) check your user type (in group membership),
    3) make sure you are actually syncing up.
