Zotero has crashed on me at least 10 times today. I think it is happening after I use Zotfile to rename .pdf's from references in my group libraries. It renames the files fine, and does not create a link (as expected.) Is there anyway to rename pdf's from references in a group library?

Any help is appreciated.

    We don't support Zotfile, but it would appear it's trying to save a linked file to a group library, which isn't allowed.

    Use the built-in function for this: Rename File from Parent Metadata, in the context menu when you right-click on a child attachment.

    Note that file attachments in groups are not synced in 2.0b6.5.

    But you cannot have child attachments in group libraries, correct?
