File Sync appears to steal focus from info panel

When I add a new item to my library by hand, entry in the various fields of the info pane (title, author, etc) keeps getting aborted, as if I'd pressed escape in the middle of typing. I *think* that this is being caued by the file sync process -- at least the two events coincide: file sync starts and the text entry field loses focus. It's pretty frustrating, because I then loose whatever I've been typing.

I'm on Zotero 2.0b6.4 on firefox 3.0.13.
  • This is fixed in the most recent version (2.0b6.5). Try updating Zotero via Firefox's Addons Window (accessible via the Tools-menu).
  • Thanks! I guess this would come under "related file sync weirdness" in the changelog.

    I'd always assumed Fx checked for updates on startup, each startup, but evidently not.
