Upgrade Storage"highlighted citation no longer exists in your Zotero database" Report ID: 654872155
Report ID: 654872155
I frequently receive an error report that reads:
Item 1 in the highlighted citation no longer exists in your Zotero database. Do you want to select a substitute item?
Clicking “No” will delete the field codes for citations containing this item, preserving the citation text but deleting it from your bibliography.
This usually happens when I have worked on a document on one computer and then open it to continue working on another computer. It's very time consuming to re-enter all the citations. Surely there's a fix for this problem. Any help will be very much appreciated.

SimonDo you have "Store references in document" checked in the Zotero document preferences (i.e. the cog icon on the Zotero toolbar in Word)?

medelmanI did have it checked. When I uncheck it, nothing seems to change.
