Finding a NYC trainer/consultant for zotero/zotfile/
After three days with trying to set up a system with zotero/zotfile and PDFExpert, I give up. Anyone do consulting on this? I need hands-on support to get this set up properly on my mac and ipad and laptop. Nothing syncs. The menu options and pop-ups that are supposedly part of Zotfile never appear. (no right click every appears from which I would supposedly get a "manage attachment" option.) New York City based.
Otherwise, why not ask more specific questions here - that's what the support forum is for.

Once that's done, ZotFile should give you the option you want.
If not, please provide some more details - like what versions do you have installed, what do you see in the right-click menu etc.
I have no other add-ons or plug-ins with Firefox. Just Zotero and Zotfile.
I see other users have had this problem, but in their case it was due to Facebook plug-in.
I have made progress but have encountered new difficulties. I can now send a zotero pdf to a dropbox folder for syncing. I can annotate in PDExpert, place the flattened file back in the dropbox sync folder, and then ask zotfile to bring it back. However, the feature of extracting my annotations in a separate note does not take place. In fact, it just brought back the un-annotated version of the file, the one that had been placed in the PDF Sync folder on dropbox.
What might I be doing wrong?

I am mystified by Zotpad. I did install it.
Not sure what to do with it yet.
I have an old zotero project for museums. Zotpad keeps wanting to download everything from that old museum project collection so I abandoned Zotfile until I figure out what to do with that collection (does Zotero have an "archive an old collection" option?
Zotpad seems to be for moving and organizing files, correct, not for annotation...
PaperShip does offer annotation, but they're $10, not sure if you want to spend that after buying pdfexpert no.

Same article is question, but now underneath the citation, I get three files: the extracted annotations (finally!), the un-annotated file, and the flattened, annotated original version...
