All of your data is in the Zotero directory on your old computer. You need to either copy that data over to the new computer, or sync. This link gives you the information you need. If you have trouble, please post back! https://www.zotero.org/su…

I'm not a dev, but I doubt any of them get annoyed by opening up a thankyou post. But, yeah, I still sometimes look for the LIKE button. (Tooooo much time on FB!) :) Thanks for your gratitude!

I create a temporary collection, then drag both the pdf and the parent item into it. Now there are only two items in the collection and it's easy to drag the file onto the parent. Afterward, just remove the collection. Or leave the collection and …

Adding more colors has been requested before. https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/31698/increase-number-of-color-tags-allowed/

@Dan, should I add that link to the _collections and tags_ documentation? Edit: I went ahead added it.

Have you tried using colored tags? Up to 6 tags can be assigned colors and numbers. Numbered tags can be quickly added or removed using the corresponding number keys on your keyboard. http://www.zotero.org/support/quick_start_guide#tags Since I c…

Welcome to the forums! There is a wealth of information on the Documentation page: https://www.zotero.org/support/ Start working through those links. They explain alot. And, of course, post back if you have specific questions or don't understan…

Does the entry (Theories of the policy process, 2007)have an author listed in the Zotero item?

Navigate to that website, then right click (or mac equivalent) and select Zotero/Create webpage item from Current Page. The option is not on the list in the drop down box. Edit: Forgot to welcome you to the forums! Also, this quote from this page:…

Welcome to the forums! Have you read this entry in the FAQs? https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/no_address_bar_icon

I'm not sure why you can't do that. I can. This is what the documentation says: https://www.zotero.org/support/collections_and_tags To assign a tag to multiple items at once, drag a selection of items from the center column onto a tag in the tag …

You can still drag an item from the center pane onto a tag even if it is greyed out.

Notes are save pretty much instantaneously... _as you type_ is what the documentation says. https://www.zotero.org/support/notes

If you right-click the item in one collection (which is a more accurate term than folder), you will see 2 options (among others, obviously). 1. Remove item from collection. This will do just that. It removes an item from that collection only. It …

First, empty your trash if you haven't already done so. Second, read this link: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/32261/storage-problems/#Item_6 It is talking about transferring group ownership, but it also applies to just deleting files.

Yes, there is another, better, way. Read this page: https://www.zotero.org/support/zotero_data Part way down is a section on backing up your Zotero library. It ends with 2 warnings. Warning — Syncing: Syncing is not a substitute for backing up.…

We will need much more information about what you are trying to do and what isn't working. Please read and follow the instructions on this page: https://www.zotero.org/support/getting_help What do you mean _export_ your library? If you mean add …

You could tag the entries with the collection name. That way you can remove the collection, but still recreate it easily. The items would still be in your Library, though.

When you create "New entry from current website" while view a pdf file it just downloads the pdf itself and does not create a parent item (which contains the meta-data). So the first thing to do is right click on the item in the center pane, then s…

LOL!! So that's why they call it the quick format citation dialogue!! Who knew? :)

Would using the classic view give you what you want? You can sort by creator.

Why are you trying to open zotero.sqlite that way? It's meant to be used only by Zotero itself. If you copied the correct folder, that _is_ a back up copy. To use it you need to direct Zotero to its location, or copy it to a new location and then…

Are you trying to follow the Northwestern University's step-by-step guide? If so, note that in step 3 they are using a _custom_ data directory (i.e. Zotero_library). If you, too, are using a custom data directory, it will say whatever the name you …

Tim, I'm not asking if it is in your bibliography (what the Word Plugin generates). I'm asking how it is listed in Zotero itself. Look up O'Donnell in Zotero (not in the insert citation dialogue in Word, but in the center pane of Zotero itself.) …

Just to check on the obvious... The information that is "left out" is actually in the Zotero item itself?

Corto_lu...did you empty the trash?

How many characters are shown? What version of Zotero are you using? OS? Also, do you realize: 1. The width of the title column can be changed? 2. The tag/collection pane can be closed, giving more room for the center pane. 3. You can reduce the…
