Syncing library across two PC's, using Google Drive and ZotFile. Help!
Hopefully this will make sense. On my original PC, I have my Zotero library, and using Zotfile, I have the attached PDF's renamed and moved to a Google Drive folder, named 'Papers'.
On my new PC, I have redownloaded Zotero, and I'm syncing the library across, (I've gone over my 300MB quota btw!), and it has the RIS's synced, however when I try to open the PDF in the new library, it cannot locate the file, even though it's going off the same file path (Google Drive).
In effect, how do I sync libraries across two PC's without syncing through Zotero? I can expand if necessary.
P.S. I can manually locate the paper, by going to the same file path and selecting the relevant paper, but I don't fancy doing this for each paper I have (I have 1,183 items in my library.

Most likely the file isn't actually at the same path on both computers, and you need to set a Linked Attachment Base Directory on both computers and sync both.
