Zotfile 'send to tablet' menu disappeared

gerhard.bissels
I use Zotfile to send pdfs from the Mac to the iPad for annotating with PDFExpert. As of today, that 'Send to tablet' option has disappeared from the pop-up menu - no idea why. I'm on MacOS 11.2.1 and Zotero 5.0.95.3. Have deleted the assorted Zotero folders called 'Tablet Files' and 'Tablet Files (modified)'; Zotero has created one new one of each species. Would be grateful for help!

    Is the general Manage Attachments menu still there?

    Yes, the menu items ‘Rename Attachments’, ‘Extract Annotations’, and ‘Get Table of Contents’ are available. Just the tablet-related items have disappeared - although in the Zotfile preferences ‘Use ZotFile to send and get files from tablet’ is ticked, and the path to the cloud folder specified.

    You've restarted Zotero and made sure the "Use ZotFile..." preference is still checked?

    Yes, have done that a few times.

    Problem solved: It's only in group folders where it doesn't seem to be possible to send the pdf to a tablet for annotating - in non-shared folders the tablet-related menu items are available. Sorry, I should have realised sooner that shared folders require different handling!
