Sync standalone and firefox data?
Mainly use firefox, but may start using chrome more and will need standalone, too. I thought the sync occurred automatically when one version or the other is opened, but am perhaps mistaken.
If the data can be be synched, how?
Thanks

If I follow the procedure, will the standalone data, which is less than the firefox data, replace what is in firefox?
Thanks
To synch via zotero won't work because i have too much data, so i want to replace the standalone with the firefox.
Will this be necessary periodically? I thought that zotero kept them up to date. or is all the data stored locally?
Thanks for the help.
Open Zotero in Firefox, under Preferences -> Advanced -> Files and Folders, click Show Data Directory. Note the path to this directory (you can keep the directory open).
Close Firefox. Open Zotero Standalone. Under Preferences -> Advanced -> Files and Folders, select Custom. Navigate to the directory you noted above. It should contain a zotero.sqlite file. Select that directory. Save the preferences. Zotero should ask you to restart the application.
Your libraries should now be in sync. You should no longer be able to open both Standalone and Zotero in Firefox at the same time.
