Can I use Zotero in 2 organisations
I volunteer for 2 organisations. I would like to use Zotero for both. I can use both if I stick with the online versions since I simply login in using the appropriate email address.
Is there some way I can use the 1 desktop app for both organisations maintaining separation between the 2?

I'd strongly recommend against trying to use multiple profiles/instances if you can help it, since there are significant limitations.
For -p (lowercase), if there's a space in the profile name you have to quote it.
We can't really help beyond that. This is just the Firefox profile manager functionality that we get from being based on Firefox, and it works exactly the same, but it's an advanced workflow and not something we particularly recommend due to the limitations, particularly when you're using multiple instances at the same time.
You would know best, but I'm not really sure why your organizations need to dictate this — if you associate another multiple email address with the account, they're only ever inviting you to groups based on the email address they know, and they'd have no way of knowing if you belonged to other groups. (The only exception would be if you owned groups and they were paying for storage, but we generally recommend that organization groups be owned by an institutional account that isn't tied to a single person.)
I appreciate the advice I have been given.
