Seizing up while syncing
Hi:
When syncing in Firefox (42.0), the sync process begins, then I get a window that appears with the following:
Alert!
Zotero items in the collection 'Corbin Cabin' have been added and/or removed on multiple computers since the last sync. The following items have been added to the collection:
• Archive progress to date
• Mountain Settlements - Shenandoah National Park
• House in Nicholson Hollow. Shenandoah National Park, Virginia (Rothstein)
• Spreading out apples to dry, Nicholson Hollow. Shenandoah National Park, Virginia (Rothstein)
And so on --
The message actually extends off my screen, so I can't see what's at the end of it. Firefox is, at this point, frozen, and the Zotero sync icon just spins and spins, with no sign that syncing has actually happened.
I upgraded my version of Zotero, but the problem continued unabated.
Clues? Remediation?

adamsmithhave you selected the message and pressed Enter/Return?

tkelly7Ah. That seems to have helped. The problem was, I couldn't see the bottom of the message to see that that was an option. Thanks!
