half of my citations were deleted
Hello,
Since yesterday half of my citations are gone. It didn't happened to me for the first time but until yesterday there were always just a few citations gone so that I looked them up again. Yesterday on 15 pages of Quotes the citations went missing and I don't know what to do or what I did wrong. I am relative new to Zotero and I am using Word 365 on a Macbook.
I already updated Zotero.
I am thankful for any help!

maybe to be more concrete: I have a document where I added my notes from Zotero. in this notes there are the quotes with the citations in brackets after the quotes. Since yesterday on some of the pages the citations are missing and I only have the quotes. I think it's since I deleted a note that I didn't finished inserting. so it looked like this: {Citation} and I deleted it.
By "added my notes" do you mean that you used the Add Note button?
Can you send the document in question to support@zotero.org with a link to this thread, and provide an example citation that you're referring to?
Do you have a copy of the file from when the citations were there?
I don't recall any other reports of many citations in a document being completely deleted without a trace. @adomasven could comment on whether there's anything that could conceivably cause this.
yes I have a copy of the file when some of the citations were still there, but not all of them. Should I send it too?
Thank you for your help
I didn't transferred the document via google drive and I only saved it as a .docx.
What can I do so that it doesn't' happen again?
I work alone on this document and I really only saved it as a docx.
