trouble synching to second computer report ID 1829966110

lwitus

Hello,
My files are on one computer and correctly synched in the online library. However, on my second computer I am trying to synch so it updates the files (and way I organized them) but the synch isn't working because there is the red error sign saying "Cannot move collection "general ideas (repeats)" into one of its own descendents" Report ID 1829966110. Does anyone know what I should do to resolve this error?
Thanks!!

Zotero should deal with this better, but to fix it, on the computer where you were doing the reorganizing, move that collection to the library root, sync both computers, and then move the collection to wherever you want it.

Thanks for the advice. How do I move the collection to the library root?

just drag the collection "general ideas (repeats)" to "My Library"

It worked! Thanks again for your help fixing the problem.
