Not displaying full library

kkloos
Hello!

My computer died (is dying) so I've logged into zotero on another computer. I've downloaded the app and logged in. I can see my team library (I only have one) but not my own. It's completely empty. My dissertation defense is next month so I'm trying to stay calm.

Any ideas?

Thank you!

    See Changes Not Syncing. You need to sync the computer that actually has the data if you want it available on other computers.

    Otherwise, you'd need a backup of the Zotero data directory from that computer.

    It was set up to sync on the original computer. Is there a way to try to check these settings now that this computer is dead?

    The "Changes Not Syncing" page lists the possible reasons it wouldn't have synced, but you've never uploaded any data to the personal library of the account you're posting from.

    If your computer is dead, the settings are irrelevant, and you'd need to restore from a backup.
