• En el nuevo, haz clik en la solapa "advanced" en las preferencias. Luego haz clik en "Show data Directory" (no sé que dice en español...quizás "Mostrar Carpeta de Datos" o algo parecido). Bueno, que archivos y carpetas aparecen?

• Para cambiar de ordenador, no conviene (por varias razones) "exportar" e "importar". Tienes que copiar toda la carpeta "zotero" al nuevo ordenador, o usar "sync". Lee este link: http://www.zotero.org/support/kb/transferring_a_library Si tienes al…

• You don't generally paste files themselves into e-mail. I actually do that alot. Especially re: Zotero attachments. If I want to email an attachment to someone, like mronkko says, I have to show file, then copy, then paste in Outlook since navigat…

• Just a reminder that I'm still having issues with multiple downloads even after updating to Z 3.0b1. ButI don't think the translator has been updated since 7 August, has it? Everything else still works.

• If you press the "-" key on the keyboard it will collapse all items. Pressing the "+" key expands all items. Note: I'm not talking about clicking on the + or - thingy to the left of the item, rather, the actual key on the keyboard. Does that acco…

• @cswooster, EBSCO has been having issues, but they have made some changes and ajlyon has recently done a lot of work on the translator. See this post for information on installing a new translator: http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/18789/1/ebsco…

• I don't know if it makes any difference, but I'm accessing the ATLAS database through EBSCO. (Just trying to think of things that might make my configuration unique.)

  in How to create a copy of an item so that I don't have to reenter all the data for a similar item? Comment by arggem June 18, 2011
• I can't help you with that one, sorry. Since this issue is unrelated to the original title, you might not get the help you need. I suggest you start a new thread with a more appropriate title.

• By the way, if you duplicate a Book Item, then change the Item type on the duplicate to Book Section, the title is automatically transferred to Book Title!

• I'd temporarily disable automatic syncing - the reason you can't manually sync is that Zotero thinks (correctly or not) that it's already in the middle of a sync process. BINGO! We have a winner! After watching my green arrow spin for 7 days,havin…
