Great, it now worked. After opening the "replace online library" pane I just clicked "ok", assuming that this would start the replacement process. Instead, I had to press the "start replacement" (or similar) button. And I did. Now the libraries ar…

Ok, I might know what the reason is. Just give me a few minutes.

"So I've been operating under the assumption that that's still the case — that you can see your data on that computer. If so, all you need to do is run Replace Online Library on that computer." That is correct. I did run "replace online library" on…

Ok, good. Unfortunately it did not work anyhow. I now re-connected both computers with the internet. I replaced the online library with the local library on the old computer. I enabled synch on both computers. On the new one still nothing happens wh…

Because this reads as if I should copy the backup-ed files just into the original folder? That seems super wrong. To copy a backup of a folder into the original folder?
-
In other words: do I have to first erase everything from the original location "Zotero" and THEN copy the backup-ed files "Zotero-Old" into this???
-
I guess this has to do with this section of the backup process. And I just don't understand this. Do I have to erase the "old" database? Do I have to manually replace to old, erased one with the backup one? "Click “Show Data Directory”, which shou…

Sorry, I am so helpless and frustrated with this. I don't understand what to do with the backup of my library. It is on my desktop. Now when I click on the reset plane, zotero gives me the option of replacing the online library. Yes! Exactly what I …

But how do I disable auto-sync, I dont see a button to do this.
-
I may also add that I don't see a "disable auto-synch" button in my synch pane in my zotero preferences. So I keep the internet connection cut, just to be safe. Perhaps that's the problem? Perhaps this is why I cannot klick on the greyed-out reset p…

Me again, I tried your method, but failed at the second step. I made a backup of my library. I also cut my internet connection, so that no unwanted synch can start. But the reset pane in zotero on my old compter is grey and I cannot klick on it. Wha…

Absolutely right, I thought the same right right after I wrote my last comment.

Thank you very much, this was super important and helpful. I just immediately disabled auto-synch my new computer and will do as you recommended. Thanks again, I wasn't aware how close I was to desaster only because I used import instead of synch to…
-
Ok, thanks for your answer. And sorry for not making this clear: the library is alive and kicking and safe, but only on the old computer. So how can I use it on the new one when pressing the synch button has no effects?
-
Great, that worked, thanks a lot!

1. I double-clicked on the Zotero icon on a Windows 10 Pro desktop. 2. The program opens up with a text that starts with the heading "Welcome to Zotero" 3. I clicked on the green round arrow on the upper right 4. A window opens up that tells me to …

I found the problem! The document was saved as an OpenDocument text. I switched to normal .doc format and now the problem is solved!

How do I find out what the full version number is and how do I know if updates are available?
-
I have the same problem!

The general problem seems to be that the bibliography function does not work. When I try to add/edit a bibliography, I get the following message: "Attempting to generate bibliography without having updated processor items". What should I do?
