Wow that is embarrassing. I had it in the Downloaded folder itself. Just moved it out into the right folder...and of course...it worked. You rule. Thanks again.
nah, it's unfortunate we can't make this work more smoothly, you shouldn't have to jump through those types of hoops to bring your data over (there's also still the goal of just importing from Mendeley via API or directly from the sqlite, though that won't happen very soon).
If you don't mind, could you tell me what went wrong with the tags during RIS import?
Sure, here is a sample of the RIS file that Mendeley exported...I don't even see the tags; when I imported the RIS, Zortero kind of just guessed the tags by itself. BibTex had it perfect.

I see - I'm surprised Zotero got any tags at all - maybe where you also had keywords in Mendeley.
Lack of tags in Mendeley's RIS export confirmed here: http://support.mendeley.com/customer/en/portal/questions/4608755-export-the-field-tags-?new=4608755
I'd consider that a bug.
