Can I retreive data after deleting the app?

Okay so I had to reinitialize my Mac some time ago and of course, all my apps were deleted, including Zotero. In order to get my libraries back, I thought I just had to redownload the app, log in my account, and that it would be fine... But it seems like it's not.

I didn't do any backup or synch (not quite sure what it does/how to do it/I'm not very good at this as you can see).

So, is there a way to get my data back?
  • There are two places your data can be:
    1) Online, after syncing with Zotero. You'd see them here if you click on "Web Library" at the top of this page.
    2) In some sort of backup of your computer (e.g. via TimeMachine). https://www.zotero.org/support/zotero_data#locating_missing_zotero_data and the entire page it's on may help.

    If neither is the case, I'm afraid there's simply no other copy of your data that exists anywhere and thus no way to bring it back.
