attachements in notes have disappeared
This morning when I started up Zotero, all the attachements (mostly jpg) in my notes seem to have disappeared. The text in the notes is intact, but the pictures have gone. In the notes you can still see where the picture was and to which zotero attachement it relates. After an icon of a broken page it says: zotero://attachement/...
As suggested in another discussion I pasted pictures (thumbnails) in my notes, so I can see them in my reports. I use syncing and a webdav from my company, but I usually am on the same laptop that I use at work as well as at home. I have no clue whatsoever what happened to the attachements and I fear having to cut and paste them again because there are lots of them... Please help, hopefully with a simple solution.

This is an old discussion that has not been active in a long time. Instead of commenting here, you should start a new discussion. If you think the content of this discussion is still relevant, you can link to it from your new discussion.
Pasting images into notes is not something that actually works. There are strange workarounds involving using image links to URLs, but those aren't really supported.

and the third one from the bottom here has a viable workaround:

but for now your images in notes are irretrievably gone - sorry!
As an historian I need to be able to show pictures in reports in order to prepare an exhibition of historical documents.
Thank you for any solution.
Thank you so far.
