Upgrade StorageOne account on two computers NOT syncing
Dear All,
I spent the last 3 weeks trying to sync libraries from my two computers. They all are attached to one account but the 'libraries' one from my desktop no longer show up on my laptop Zotero. I tried to export the libraries from the desktop to laptop via "adding RDF files" for each library. I also tries to sync it with a WEBDAV server (i.e. SWITCH drive).
I spent 3 weeks making sure to download all library items from desktop to laptop in 'file and rdf' formats. But NOTHING is working for the syncing. I would really like to sync all libraries so I can continue my reserach, but I am afraid of loosing what material I already have saved on my desktop.
So, my questions are:
1. How can I sync all my materials from my desktop to my laptop without loosing material (i.e. from desktop zotero which works fine)?
2. Also why is the syncing function not working when it is the same account? All my material shows up in my desktop Zotero but in my library on my laptop and on my online library account?
Help please :) Thank you

If you've been exporting and importing, you're going to end up with many duplicates as soon as your various Zotero installations actually sync, though you should be able to delete the duplicates easily by sorting by Date Added and deleting the newly created ones.
