synching of edits in pdf files fails, access from different computers
hi there,
I use Zotero on my macbook from home and from my computer at University, we have a group library from my institution with unlimited storage. I noticed that edits I did on PDF Files, like text marks and bookmarks are not saved, resp. synched properly. For instance I added some files to Zotero from my macbook at home yesterday. When using Zotero from my University computer today, the files are there but all the edits are missing! This is a big hindrance of my work flow. The synch symbol shows synching has worked. Any ideas are much appreciated.
Kind regards

I am using Acrobat on both computers. When I open the files through Zotero with my macbook, all the edits are there, but if I access them through Zotero from the other computer the edits are not there. The other computer is Windows if thats relevant. Both Zotero versions seems to be the latest update. I saw there was another post today with the same issue!

it is from the "second" computer that doesn't show the edits I did on the "first" computer. (I don't dare to change the files on second computer now because I don't want to loose those I did on the first computer.)
Thanks for helping!
Second solution: Honestly I am bit worried to lo lose my edited file that way
If the file doesn't exist locally, Zotero will download the version from the online library — there's nothing else it can do. You need to check the online library to see what version of the file is there.
Kind regards
How can I make sure, that edits I am making at Uni computer are saved properly?
I did a restart with logging, edited a file on home computer, which did not synch on Uni computer (library FG..). I noticed extended synching time with another shared library (7440 -...), maybe thats an issue.
