Cannot import references after update

barthulley
The update to 6.0.25 has corrupted all import functions. I can no longer add references via import... import from clipboard, nor using the wand. Anyone know how to roll back to the previous version?

    That's unlikely to have been related to an upgrade.

    Can you provide a Debug ID for an import attempt that fails?

    Well - it was all working yesterday - so that's the only explanation.
    Also just discovered that I can't export either...

    Right, so you appear to have your Zotero data directory in Dropbox. It absolutely can't be there, Zotero warns you if it detects that, and we can't provide any support for such a setup.

    You should move it out of there immediately.

    It's been in there for 4 years without a hitch.
