How can I access my Zotero Attachments remotely (on-line)
Hi Zotero Community,
Greetings.
I have the updated Zotero program (2.0) on my computer and I am working on trying to access my attachment (via ZOTERO Sync) on other machines. I have a log-in and already have the sync feature etc. However, the only thing that I can currently open from other locations is the info about each reference...not the attachments that should go with it. When I click on the attachment button I just get info about the attachment and not the attachment itself. Please send any ideas my way...any help with this challenge is welcome.
In Peace,
Nathan

If you need to access attachments from a public computer (i.e. one where you can't install firefox and zotero) one possible solution is to use portable firefox on a USB stick, along with file syncing (see adamsmith's link) to keep the USB stick up to date with your main computer. As with all beta software, especially when using a slightly unusual workflow such as this one, remember to take frequent backups of your data directory ;)
