WebDAV via nextcloud: Synchronization of highlightings in documents between iPad and Windows laptop

Hi folks,

I have set up the Zotero applications on my Windows laptop and my iPad using the WebDAV synchronization via the university's cloud (provider: nextcloud). The synchronization works without any problems, only the highlights that I make on the iPad in the literature PDFs are apparently not synchronized, but only stored locally on the iPad. Does anyone know a solution for this? (The university support unfortunately isn't helpful, also I couldn't find a solution quickly using the search function...)


Cheers
Ben

    Are you opening the PDF in Zotero Desktop with the Zotero PDF reader or with the system one (like Acrobat)? Only the former will work
    (edit: the annotations sync through the database and WebDAV should just work like Zotero file storage for this purpose, so that's likely unrelated).
  • Thanks! Thats the solution, so simple! hahaha
