syncing

Lotus1600

How do I sync two computers? I have somewhat different Zotero saves on two computers and I'm afraid if I hit the sync button I will lose some of the saves. Does Zotero make one computer a "master" and the other(s) secondary? Or are they all equal for syncing purposes?

Zotero syncs to your online Zotero.org account. All items in both libraries will be added and merged. Zotero only deletes items if you explicitly delete them in one of the clients.

Thanks so much for this help. I have a follow up question: I added some collections and sub collections on one computer but not the other. Will these "folders" also add and merge like the items in them?

Yes
