file attachement sync problems zotero storage

soma12
After I enabled syncing with my Zotero account, zotero gives me this error (after freezing for bit)

JavaScript Error: "Error: File not found in Zotero.Attachments.getNumFiles()" {file: "chrome://zotero/content/xpcom/sync.js" line: 579}]

Will not sync attachments. program stopped freezing after i unselected to attach files.

Running on a new macbook pro

    Can you provide a Debug ID for a sync attempt that produces this error?

    1) Does your database pass the integrity check in the Advanced pane of the preferences?

    2) If you upgrade to Firefox 23, does this still happen?

    i fixed the errors and it says the database has integrity, but it still locks up. also upgraded to firefox 23. same problem

    Could you install the latest 4.0 Branch dev XPI and provide a Debug ID for this error using that? It should give us a bit more info on what's happening.

    That appears to be a different (though potentially related) problem. Now you're getting an "Error processing uploaded data" error.

    From your "My Library" view in Zotero, paste C35F2X3F into the quick search bar, which should bring up an item. There appears to be an issue with that item. I'm going to look into the problem, but if you delete that item and empty the trash, this error may go away. (If not, provide another Debug ID.) You can recreate the item without causing any problems.
