i still have the 'save to zotero' option: it still imports the item/metadata into my firefox library, but now that this is synced to my standalone, i only have to re-sync the standalone. (with the small question of why moving items into different fo…
-
before i synced firefox and standalone (as of a few days ago at the beginning of this thread), i would import metadata by selecting 'save to zotero' in my firefox bar, and then i would go into firefox library and select the item and export it to the…
-
sorry... when i check my add-ons i only see add-ons for 'zotero word' and 'zotfile'... (and not sure which 'Z' icon.. the one at top left of firefox pane doesn't lead to any gear menu)
-
only sort of.. in step 3 of manual share, i want to redirect my firefox to the more complete standalone directory, but the preferences for firefox don't have the same file hierarchy... what am i missing?
-
Any further thoughts on how i switch firefox to share with standalone? (...so that firefox points to the external hard drive) Thank you
-
Yes, this seems to be the case (when I go to firefox troubleshooting and click 'show in finder' for the profile folder, then it takes me to a folder on my computer hard drive, rather than the external). how do i switch firefox to share with sta…

even though my zotero stand alone is pointed at the external drive (and the sqlite files on the external indicate the most recent time i opened zotero), all the pdf files are still only being added to my local drive. im not sure whether draggin…
-
do i need to re-move the entire library to the external (even though its already pointing at the external)?
-
hi, i really appreciate your help. strangely, it seems that even though my library is pointed at the external drive, all the new files are still being imported to the local computer drive file. it doesn't even look like any files were moved …
-
yes!! thank you.
-
they are not in the duplicates! i will continue searching. please let me know if you have any thoughts. i suspect they are in another folder (rather than deleted—they are not in trash or unfiled!) huge thanks to you!
-
these are full attachments that have/had associated pdf files.. which are now missing
-
when i import items into zotero, i would find the citation info, and then under 'manage attachments' i would select 'rename file' according to the retrieved metadata. but if i didn't rename it (either i forgot, or i intentionally wanted to preserve…
-
so, it looks like these items that i can't locate are items that hadn't been renamed... so were stored in 'random' titled folders... still, though, even when i type in the name of the pdf it does not appear.
-
okay, both citations worked (i could edit/modify them) when copied to the fresh document. im not sure why they were suddenly not working in the main dissertation doc, but now i re-tried and it seems to be working (slowly, as usual) (would…
-
i will try what you suggest. though, i have never had these symptoms happen before.
-
when i try to edit this newer citation, a little space (or tiny superscript figure?) appears and sends the cursor to a line after my bibliography. one time it also froze and i had to force quit both zotero and ms word. when i try to edit …
-
ah, glad you suggested this... when i move the cursor into a citation and select edit, it does not work. so i am assuming the reference is not linked... thoughts?
-
...my external drive is "custom" location. (is it even possible to make it my profile directory?)
-
well, i went through all the conflicts (basically always selecting the default which was most recent modified, or the older if they were the same date). my library is currently pointed to the external drive. it seems like the syncing process m…
-
thank you! how do i open each file? (without canceling the sync) also, is it possible that a 'duplicate' pair of files will have independent modifications? (eg. i made on the external, and then made more modifications on the version once t…
-
i am syncing the second library... "conflict resolution: the following item has been changed in multiple locations. Choose the version you would like to keep then click continue." ...do i select 'local', 'remote' or 'merged' object? …
-
sorry.. more: do i select 'sync automatically' and 'sync full-text content'? (not sure if this is related/relevant, but i have extracted annotations on a number of items.)
-
ohh, another q: do i deselect these two *file* sync option boxes: 'sync attachment files'? 'sync attachment files in group libraries using zotero storage?' (my library is too much memory to upload..)
-
super. thanks so much! (i'll be back on here to post the results.)
-
Okay, great, this is clear. Just one clarification: i currently already have about 40 pairs of items in my duplicate folder. are you are suggesting i deal with these after the sync? (i just wonder if it might slow down my one by one evalua…
-
Okay, this seems clear. Is there a quick way to batch delete all the items on my online account? (i.e. to avoid having to pick through and do it one by one, once ive synced my local libraries..) Do you think i should deal with existing d…
