Missing annotated PDFs after syncing with Litmaps
Hello! Yesterday I was working with the Litmamps add-on and synced my Zotero library into Litmaps. When I came back to the Zotero app (Mac.OS Sonoma 14.5), all of my saved files were gone and my library was empty. A few minutes later, my library repopulated, but the attached PDFs remain missing. I put in a lot of effort highlighting and annotating these, so I would really like to get these back!
I am willing to remove the Litmaps add-on if that is the culprit. However, I would still like to get my PDFs back! Thank you!

You should be able to restore data from one of your automatic backups, though I'm afraid you might lose a day or two of work. Restoring from a database backup won't restore your attachments, but once you've recovered data, we may be able to reassociate any files you had online.
All the attachments you have online — and I'm seeing 11 items with PDF attachments, including a couple in the trash — have files associated with them.
