Using Dropbox and want to move Zotero Data to it
Currently my Zotero data directory is resident in my home desktop, located at:
C:\Users\DOYLE\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\yxry0x07.default\zotero
This works fine at home but does it permit me to work on my Zotero citations etc. from my office computer?
Does the Zotero data from my home PC sync with the Zotero Library in other words?
Does it make any sense to try to copy of move my Zotero directory to the Dropbox directory?
Thanks

If you need attached files to sync and don't want to rely on Zotero's file storage, you can either find a WebDAV service (usually cheaper than Zotero, but with slightly reduced functionality) or you can find a way to sync only your zotero/storage folder using dropbox et al (i.e. the folder that holds the attachments, but not the folder that has the zotero.sqlite - the only way to do this with dropbox are symlinks afaik.
I have written about dropbox here, check toward the end of the article
