What (if anything) does it say in the library catalog field of those items? These items are most likely accidentally added by you. The other, much(!) less likely, option is that someone else is accessing your account. You can check recent sessions …
-
Yes, put Issued:1971/1972 into extra. This will also work for precise date ranges, like for an event, with the dates in ISO format, so Issued: 1971-08-24/1971-08-31

I don't think that's a realistic solution, though, to handle this manually (and you really shouldn't turn off auto sync for stuff that you don't want to lose). I think the "Choose Libraries" option in the sync tab of the preferences should work fo…
-
Meaning you are able to log in on this website and see the library and now want to sync it? It's under Settings then Sync. You might need to unlink another account (make sure that one is synced -- unlinking deletes all local data)
-
I think there's a strong case for it in the humanities (broadly understood), yes. I like "Classical work" best (Neuromancer is undoubtedly a classic work but not what we are talking about)
-
That's already in all the Chicago styles for the bibliography (it's name-as-sort-order="first" )
-
A bit hard to say without more details of what you did exactly, but I'm guessing you used "Create Bibliography for selected items" and then selected "Citation" instead of "Bibliography" -- and APA citations are just (Author, Year); the bibliography …
-
How exactly are you citing and which citation style? For many citation styles, author and year is what you'd expect in a citation.
-
Does dragging a PDF to Zotero work (i.e. appears as an attachment and allows you to open it)? This looks like a permission issue to me, but hard to say.
-
Naja, müsstest Du halt im Zitierstil anpassen, das ist aber in dem Fall nicht sonderlich schwer -- im wesentlichen ganz open class="note" zu class="in-text" ändern und dann im Layout Teil der Citation section die Klammern setzen, also
-
Ja, das liegt am Zitierstil, da müsstest Du Dich and die Bibliothek wenden, die den zur Verfügung stellt. (Alternativ könntest Du eine andere Eintragsart wählen und dann ganz am Ende per Hand nachbessern, aber ist natürlich weniger Bequem=.

https://www.zotero.org/support/sync#alternative_syncing_solutions The key thing that corrupts your database is putting zotero.sqlite in a cloud folder. If you are not doing that, the worst that can happen are file sync conflicts and those are prett…

I tried to answer that above: you can annotate the LO.pdf files, extract the annotations into a note and then adjust the page numbers in the note. (FWIW, I don't think most people, whether they work digitally or not, actually use workflows where th…
-
I'm a bit confused by what exactly you are trying to do, but if you extract an annotation into a note, you can modify the page number (click on "Edit Citation", then on the actual citation). You can also directly add citations into notes if you're …
-
Right, that's where the announcement by dstillman above comes in We don't currently import podcast from anywhere, I believe (we used to support Stitcher but that went under), but if we do, I'm pretty sure the data would import as such, yes.
-
Correct, and that only applies to attachments (and images in notes) -- data still syncs
-
Sorry, where are you looking? All of these styles are footnote styles: https://www.zotero.org/styles?format=note&dependent=0
-
Yeah, there's so much that can go wrong with this (yes, including losing your entire library due to an incorrect sync) that I won't be party to this beyond my advice not to do it. You can turn attachments into links for folders you want to back-up …
-
You don't have a choice in terms of what gets deleted, but note that the deletion refers to the server. Zotero won't delete local files (unless you explicitly do so yourself) ever.
-
You can select all items cited in a Word or LibreOffice (not Google Doc) file using https://rintze.zelle.me/ref-extractor/ Note this won't work if you just download a .docx or odt file from google docs. You actually need to move it as described here…
-
I'm not entirely clear what you mean, but you'd still have to move it to a different library, so citations would get disconnected.
-
If you have a single item selected that way, the key to highlight the collections the item is in (i.e. ctrl in Windows) also works.
-
No, I mean -- it's not possible to do what you ask, i.e. create a fully functional back-up of an individual collection. You can export to Zotero RDF, but that's not entirely lossless and, more importantly, won't maintain links to items cited in Word…
-
You can ctrl+click on an item to select it individually and can then both delete and edit it.
-
Can't be done in the way you describe.
-
Your professor is wrong. See APA's own guidance here: https://apastyle.apa.org/style-grammar-guidelines/references/examples/journal-article-references#1 The volume should be italicized (and Zotero does that), issue and page numbers should not be.
-
This sounds like the wrong approach. CSL has 'genre' which is for exactly this type of thing. I don't like the use of archive for type. The library catalog is appropriate if the database (like JSTOR) should be added to the citation
-
You're not changing the ID
-
technically it's the fields available, not the fields required, but otherwise yes.
-
1 and 3 are right. I don't understand 2 (also, by "css" you mean "CSL" or "csv"?)
