This did not solve the problem for me. When I deleted Zotero.dotm, it was succsessfully removed, and when I re-installed I had the same issue that I mentioned in my original post, with the same things visible in the screen shots.

I tried the solutions there to no avail. Here is the link: https://docs.google.com/document/d/16tHgrT89EIIinHhgQWn_IkNNjonuLRIVwY43i2wgRQY/edit?usp=sharing

Thank you. Do you have a rough idea how long the process normally takes?
-
Perfect, thanks a lot for your quick help.

This would be to avoid any problems with this in the future.

I guess the PDFs weren't in the backup folder. Lost cause but thank for all the help. Just wondering whether there could be a reason for why the PDFs would not have transferred into the storage folder of Zotero? I inputted them and used them in…

I wonder what happened with that previous custom directory that caused the sqlite to become totally new...I will try this all out today and then post back.

By backup do you mean just copying the original folder and pasting in another location as a reserve? That's what I gathered from other posts on the forum. The reason I ask is that, when I just copied and pasted, the sqlite file in the newly created …

Right so just copy all of the files from the storage subfolder of my backed up database and paste them into the storage folder of the profile directory directory?
-
The storage folder is full of all hundreds of articles, though, which still have all of the PDFs, etc. Any way to get at those or is this a lost cause?

I chose the entire "Zotero" folder such that, when I now click on the "Show Data Directory" button I see all of the sub-folders which include locate, styles, storage, translate, zotero.sqlite, etc. Still nothing in my library. When I go into th…

Just tried again with a the backed up version of my old directory. As I linked that file I got this error: The directory you selected is not empty and does not appear to be a Zotero data directory. Like last time I continued, restarted, and then got…

When I added linked Zotero to my original custom directory, Zotero was completely empty. I synced and then I guess I synced with the account contents. I don't know how I can properly link it other than following the directions we noted earlier: …

I connected it to the original database on the advanced pane, it synced the data, but several articles are still missing. Is there a way to merge the two database folders to have a complete list of all PDFs that could have been in either database? I…

Hi Dan, What do you mean by point zotero to the original library? Would this be for the linked attachment or data directory part? And which sub-folder of the generic Zotero folder should be used as the main folder when linking? Thanks agai…

Just realized another potential clue: I created a custom directory last year that was likely being used until this reset. Since I downloaded Z for F again, the standard default storage location is being used. Could be that most of the old files are …

Just sent the de-bug to Zotero using that process.

Hi Dan, I am referring to not a total reinstallation but just a reset (all files were retained - just apps and programs had to be reinstalled). I couldn't see why some files would not have been uploaded to zotero.org as I always synched on a re…
