Helping syncing old zotero account to new laptop
Hi! I have acquired a new laptop and would like to entirely sync my old zotero account onto it. I have a problem, though: I have had two zotero accounts since my last sync three years ago. This current zotero account from which I am posting has no saved data while the other account was updated three years ago. I have saved a lot of data since then and have downloaded my zotero library's contents onto my computer. I am now having trouble uploading the saved zotero library because, when I try to do so, the zotero app on my new laptop states that the files are incompatible. What can I do to address this?
See Transferring a Library to understand how to do this properly.
I also read the helpful links you sent. I had downloaded the library from zotero and put it on an external drive. I have placed it from that external drive onto my new laptop. It is from that folder I am having trouble uploading the data into the new zotero.
