• I'd like to remove enough files to dip below the 6 GB. Of late I've been downloading the pdfs and saving them to OneDrive folder, which is free. So I don't use file storage at Zotero any more, at least if I understand how it works.

• Well, I think the problem is finally solved. After syncing, and accepting the conflict resolutions, the process didn't repeat itself. And checking my on-line account library, it now has an (almost) identical number of entries (two less for some reas…

• Alright! progress - dragging the file (zipperonafolder) icon onto the Zotero Database Repair tool worked. It generated a new zotero.sqlite.zip file, which I extracted and used to replace the existing one in my zotero data base folder. Upload ID 559…

• the problem with thinking of it as a 'zipped file" is that the Zotero Database Repair Tool (website) doesn't recognize it as a file. When I "Browse" for the file, what you are calling the "Zipped file" acts like a folder, in that the Zotero Database…

• By "compressed folder" I mean the folder that got created (icon = folder with zipper) when I compressed the zotero.sqlite file, and into which the compressed file got deposited. In order to upload the compressed file, I accessed it in that folder. …

• OK, I've tried Chrome and I've tried Explorer, but both say that the file is too large: What I'm doing is uploading the "zotero.sqlite" file in the compressed folder. The file says "Compressed size 55,175KB" with a (I assume compressed) "ratio of 5…

• I clicked "Check Database Integrity" and got a message "Data base has errors." I tried to correct it with the "Zotero Database Repair Tool". I first compressed/zipped the ".sqlite" file. It appeared in a new folder(zip). When I uploaded this .sqlite…

• I searched the entire data base, including all the libraries and subfolders, in the “all fields & tags” mode, with “BNR224VZ”. No item showed up. However, when I clicked on the “duplicate items” folder, it wouldn’t open, but gave me this instead…

• OK: after clicking the sync icon, it generated the 411 errors, which I clicked to resolve, hit finish. This time, however, it did generate an error alert icon; when I clicked on it, it said "Error processing uploaded data (Report ID: 1a3b2e26)" I cl…

• Dan, sorry, I conflated the Error Report with your request for Debug ID. So, the Debug ID is D1482575058. By the way, this time when I ran the sync, just before it started its second iteration of generating the 411 conflicts, the green sync icon…

• Dan I had already disabled the auto-sync (in preferences). And I had already disabled all the other extensions in Firefox. I installed 4.0Beta as you suggested (this is really helpful by the way, compared to clicking through 411 choices each time …

• OK, I disabled all the other Firefox extensions, all of them except for Zotero (even the other Zotero related ones). I clicked the green 'sync' arrow and it delivered me the 411 conflicts. I clicked through them all again. When I clicked the last o…

• I pasted BNR224VZ into the search bar, but nothing came up, and I also searched in the trash (nothing). Then the 77 conflict resolutions appeared again, and I clicked through all of them. One of them had an item already deleted from the server (it s…

• reportID: 771732863 this is the number I got from the "grey cog" after I went through the 77 conflict resolutions again; then it asked me to do them again, except I only had 76 conflict resolutions to scroll through. One thing of note, perhaps, each…

• Dan, I feel a bit dense (perhaps fri aft can do that to a person). But I'm not seeing how to "Restore from Zotero Server" and I've tried to look in the Forum but can't locate this. I'm not worried about recent data, my zotero library on the server…

• Dan, thanks for your help. I found the right zotero.sqlite file, entered that into the data base repair tool, and it did the trick.
