Zotero storage usage doesn't update?

Kathali11
Hi,

I saw that my usage approached the limit of my 2 GB storage plan and decided to remove some big attachments (localized the big files via finder folder size and then removed the attachments within Zotero). So I removed about 270 MB to a place outside Zotero storage. However, the folder usage is still reported to be 1959 MB or 98%. Why doesn't this update?

Thank you in advance!

(Great program by the way!)

    I'm not sure what you mean by "removed […] to a place outside Zotero storage", but did you actually delete the items in Zotero and empty the Zotero trash? You shouldn't make any changes to the 'storage' directory manually, and that's separate from your online storage usage.

    My dear, could have thought of that. Emptied the trash, synced with server, and storage usage was indeed corrected.

    Thank you for the super fast help.
