all my documents are gone!!! helpp

carmenbalogh
A month ago, I did some research on biopharmacy with Zotero. (all the books, articles and documents I found back then, I saved them in the Zotero's library). The problem is, I had to do a screen print, but since all the computers at school are older than I am, I couldn't. So, my teacher said that I can do it at home because no matter where you are, you can see the documents you've searched in Zotero. I installed Zotero in my computer and all my documents are gone!!! Why? I really need them for my project.

Please help if you've been through this before.

    In order to access your documents on another computer you need to sync them first. Have you done that with your computer at school? http://www.zotero.org/support/sync

    If not, then the only way to access your references is through the same computer that you were working on.

    I don't understand why you need to do a screen print.

    Why not either create a bibliography, or a report?

    Alas, it isn't uncommon for some academics to require screen prints in an attempt to verify that the student did the assigned work. Somehow a screen print is supposed to prove that the student didn't purchase a bibliography. There may be other reasons for this too-common requirement.

    Yes, that's absolutely right. My teacher asked me to do it. I still have all the information I searched for, I just need the screen print..

    Aurimas, I think my teacher failed to tell us about the syncing part and there's no way I remember the computer I was working on. Thank you anyway ..
