Uploading Files to Online Library

bjett003
I uploaded several attachments through zotero, but I cannot access the via the online library. Is there any way I can upload all of the files I have on my zotero to my online library? Thanks.

    Thank you. In the online library, I can see that the attachments are showing up (they are mostly pdfs and word files), but when I click on a book title from my library under the Notes and Attachments section, it has the title of the attachments (that I can't click on), and a link to the attachment details. But I still cannot access the word documents or the pdf files. I tried re-syncing everything and checked my preferences. Any other ideas?

    Sounds like your metadata is syncing but not your files (or your files are syncing to WebDav instead of Zotero file storage).

    You're sure you have your preferences set to "Sync attachment files in My Library using Zotero"?

    Yes, I just double checked. My preferences are set to sync attachment files in My Library using Zotero." Any other suggestions? I appreciate all the advice.

    See http://www.zotero.org/support/kb/files_not_syncing
    If the file hasn't been uploaded correctly but syncing completes on Computer A without a sync error, go to the Sync→Reset pane of the Zotero preferences on Computer A and select Reset File Sync History. This shouldn't be necessary under normal usage, but it will cause Zotero to check every attachment to make sure that it has been uploaded to the server.
