Thank you both

Thanks. 1. Yesterday you wrote in response to a debug ID I submitted: “The debug log doesn’t look right and is still taking too long, and retrieving all fields from the document, which it should not do.” That was a clear acknowledgement of a proble…

Yesterday you told me: “The debug log doesn’t look right, it’s still taking too long, and it’s retrieving all fields from the document, which it should not do. Could you create a screen recording where you perform the request above, and create anoth…

Debug ID: D180847405. I will send the screen recoding via email now.

I do NOT see this behaviour with 7.0.30. I used the same doc that I sent to you. Once I use document preferences to swap to MHRA, it does not do anything else: trying to insert a reference just takes me to main Zotero window, but does not allow inse…

I have just emailed you with the document: everything works fine with a brand new document but not with anything copied from last year's dissertation. You have previously requested the document so you can do bug analysis so have sent it to you to …

PS. Track changes is disabled I have no captions with citations "Copying and pasting the document content into a new document to see if the problem goes away": Tried this - same issue persists. "If using OneDrive on Windows, save the copy of the do…

I see. With a new document it works fine. But that's not typical with a dissertation, so I have created some test documents of 50k words with 900 references (so about half what my final doc will be). I use WordforMac. Problem: Word>Zotero>D…
-
Thank you. Do you think that if the existing 900 references were linked, that Zotero would be much slower to add number 901? i.e., is it now working very fast because there are no other references there already - but once I have 900 real linked refe…

Hello, just following up on this. I’ve been experimenting this morning to see how my new thesis might look once everything is combined (around 100,000 words and 140 images). To test it, I took my old dissertation and saved it as an unformatted .rtf…

@adamsandell I have been experimenting using the same dissertation that Zotero and word for Mac refused to co-operate with. I downloaded Libreoffice which is one of the two systems that does not work in the same way as MacOS Word does. But I hated …
-
@damsandell I thought I had a breakthrough this week by changing the referencing style, but unfortunately not. Back to two minutes to insert one citation. I was wasting two hours per day just waiting for Zotero to enter referencing. And if I tried a…

not sure how to link to a style. here is a ss. https://s3.amazonaws.com/zotero.org/images/forums/u13832981/ml15paytvnykhkv9yr82.png

Thanks. It is a specific style written by a tutor atthe Uni that we are instructed to import and use within Zotero. I was about to ask whether using something like MHRA (4th ed) would improve the reaction time, and then I thought I should just try…
-
Thank you. Automatic citation updates definitely disabled (see ss). Have just done it again with this double-checked - definitely off - it took 1m55 seconds to insert one citation. See D132745974. Given that academic dissertations often have over 1…

Thank you. I just did one and it took a while. Here is the Debug ID: D1461215052

Thanks for your reply, but as per my OP, this is not my experience. Every new reference is taking two minutes and causing Zotero to bring up an error fault. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Word, Zotero and even the Mac hard drive and this has not…
-
Thank you, that worked. Now I need to get it all working with my big Word for Mac documents that have multiple images and tables. At the moment Zotero is very slow to insert: two minutes for one reference even if it’s not “live” yet. And clicking a …

(top image = desktop app, bottom image = online). Can you confirm whether I have synced successfully please?

Hi, I have successfully re-imported all my missing PDFs back into the Zotero desktop app using the technique you told me upthread. Then I went to the online version and upgraded to 6GB (my Zotero is aboout 3.8GB). Then I went back to the desktop a…

Ok, have just done it and added a new file and it synced and now has an exclamation mark next to sync. Literally never seen that before. ID: D1252301153

I have worked out my last question (needed to show all items). Sync has NEVER shown me any warning on the desktop app that my storage was full up (and still doesn't). That is a major cause of the situation I find myself in now. How can I force it …

4) Thank you, I have done the first one (Gregson) now. I can see in the desktop app that it is in MyLibrary with the PDF now attached. However although I have synced the PDF is not on the online version. Is this because my storage is full? Also…

Thank you. I did not know any of this previously, I thought exporting was the same thing as back up :( Time Machine being installed as we speak. More questions please: 4) Will the system have lost all my annotatations since Dec 2024? Is there no…

More questions: 3) how can I tell how full up my storage quota is, eg if I delete some old stuff, can I see whether I am under the quota then?
