firefox 3
After crippling and repeated corruption issues with the zotero database (even with indexing turned off)...I thought, "I'll just have to try firefox 3...they say that is much more stable"
Low and Behold...zotero is not compatible with firefox 3...
: (
Please help...I'm willing to turn off all the other plugins, only access zotero from one operating system...whatever it takes...
Thankyou,
Dianne

This is an old discussion that has not been active in a long time. Instead of commenting here, you should start a new discussion. If you think the content of this discussion is still relevant, you can link to it from your new discussion.
But note that others don't have corruption issues & you might just try Firefox 2, the release version of Zotero with a fresh profile.
I'm going to try being MUCH more cautious with my zotero...
I'm not sure what you mean by a fresh profile. Do you mean my firefox profile might be a problem and it should be deleted? Or something else?
Is it alright for multiple machines to POINT to the same zotero database as long as zotero isn't being edited on more than one of them at a time?
Additionally, is there an automated way to compare a backed up copy of zotero to the current version...so that I could identify changes between the two? This would be very helpful for determining what exactly had been lost (or added). If not, are there any plans to provide such a "diff" feature?
Thankyou again for an amazing product and excellent support...when I take the time to investigate a problem on your forums I am always impressed.
Thankyou again for your time.

All machines MUST have the same version of Zotero.
Only ONE machine may have firefox open (and you should use your process list to ensure that it is actually closed (not seeing the window is not enough)).
Network access to the sqlite file is not officially supported (but should generally work).
I doubt that accessing the sqlite file from multiple machines is officially supported either.
