OK. Nice to know. I guess I will do it the hard way. Thanks.
-
Thank you I already did that. The question is: How do you batch edit tags that were not attached automatically?
-
Gentlemen, A sincere thanks for all your help and patience. I am now up and running on both computers. Sure is nice to have Zotero back!!
-
Maybe I could simply uninstall Zotero 5 on Computer B and then reinstall it to rebuild my Library with the new links?
-
OK, Zotero seems to be working correctly after syncing and resolving conflicts by specifying to use the local database on computer A (although Firefox crashed Zotero continued to sync the database). Since I am using Zotero 5 on computer B, as soon …

Progress has been made. I figured out that the old file path to attachments in the cloud drive has changed to a simple root directory, in my case "G:\".. This new configuration was either done by Cloudme or Netdrive. An absolute file path now serves…

OK. I reverted to a backup version of my Zotero database that has simple links to attachment files that previously worked. I have been using Netdrive3 to create a local drive G: and I am trying to connect to pdfs stored on the Cloudme site through W…

OK. When I did this Zutilo was able to show the doublet drive "G:/G:/" which I modified to single G. I tried to find a pdf using absolute paths and Zotero was looking in the Storage folder under Mozilla (no pdfs here). Then I went back to relative p…

The base directory was previously blank until I designated drive "G:". Iy is not clear how to delete the "G:" designation and get back to the original blank.

OK. The output is: (2)(+0000001): Attachment file 'G:\G:\Documents\zotero\Adam_Green_2010_Trace element partitioning between mica- and amphibole-bearing garnet.pdf' not found (2)(+0002030): Attachment file 'G:\G:\Documents\zotero\Adam_Green_2010_T…

Thanks. Yes, I appreciate how Zutilo works. The bottom line is that I can locate the base directory but not the actual pdf through the modified link. The syntax I see in the Zutilo statement for the link is: " G:/Documents/zotero/title.pdf" and this…
-
I tried various modifications of the file attachment path but no success locating the exact pdf. When a "show file" in the Zotero menu I cannot locate the pdf. When I opt for the "Locate" option I can find the directory with all the pdfs in there (N…

Here is the problem: the link directs Zotero to look in "X:\Documents\Zotero" (upper case Zotero folder). The new file path is "G:\Documents\zotero" (lower case zotero). The change of drive letter X to G was due to upgrading Netdrive. What is the be…
-
OK. I now see that the icon for attachment files has changed to a chain link. If I understand correctly, then this is not a syncing issue which makes sense. Given that computer A and B cannot find these files, how do I proceed to get Zotero to disco…
-
OK. I guess I did not explain things well. Zotero cannot find pdf attachments from the `show file`menu. The pdfs are present on my cloud drive and WebDav is set up correctly to access that cloud drive. I opened the `storage`directory on my computer …
-
Well it took some time but I now have things working properly. The issue is a Cloudme-WebDav-Netdrive configuration problem. Since Zotero attachment connectivity is working on my old computer I decided to uninstall the new version of Netdrive (2.2.0…

OK. Dan. Thanks for the quick reply. The Debug ID is D1451517375. I gave info about the plugins I am using in case this is relevant. The problem may well be a WebDAV-cloudme issue and not Zotero. To clarify what I am trying to do, I have pdf files s…
