zotero database corrupt

I followed every step (explained very well) to get my database rebuilt and the whole process went well. Looking at the database I lost all references I entered in zotero since november 2011 until now. This is a real shock and lots of work lost.

1. Is there no way to retrieve more references?
2. what can be the reason for getting a corrupt database? I store on a external Lacie (still working norma) instead of on the net

  • Depending on your machine's OS you may have backups of more recent versiond of your Zotero database. For example, through my Mac's "time machine" I can revert to many earlier versions of any file. Recent versions of Windows have a similar capability. The only thing is that the backup system must have been set-up before you need it.
  • I suspect you did something wrong and copied in the wrong file or something—the repaired file that was returned to you definitely has items up through yesterday.
