thanks for the clarification. Most of my uploads lately take under an hour... It was the ones that took days that got my initial attention. Checking on zotero.org will alleviate my uncertainty / worries
-
Dan, thanks for your help. This does seem to be an on-again, off-again problem for me. Will try the latest branch build and see if that helps. Much obliged. Mimi

Meanwhile, while sync wheel turns, can't open older files..

New day. Same problem. "upload accepted. Waiting for sync server"
-
My items do show up on zotero.org. But the sync wheel turning makes me always uncertain as to whether they will do so, and I fear that I'll ultimately lose newly input data. Further, the turning sync wheel periodically makes it impossible to perfo…
-
I don't understand this at all. I am definitely syncing - new items (notes, attachments) that I add are sticking, even through closing down Firefox and re-opening it. And the sync wheel indicates that it is trying to sync. I don't understand enou…

can you see debug ID now? I enabled it...
-
did restart Firefox. Perpetual motion resumed....
-
upload accepted, awaiting sync server. Will go get debug ID next
-
Dan - The fix doesn't seem robust / complete. I am back to perpetual sync.
-
Dan - just provided the Debug ID per your directions. This comes from my laptop (which today has perpetual sync wheel, as described in my last post).
-
Dan - You didn't see me trying to sync for several days, as I was afraid that I would lose new data to the perpetual motion sync wheel on my desktop. Today I tried to sync my laptop, so as to bring over the latest version of things from my deskto…

Currently (10PM EDT Sunday) sync works OK. This is 1st time in nearly a week... during which ALL my sync attempts were 8-11PM EDT. I'm not sure whether the sync problem is "fixed" or just in hibernation...
-
I'm still not having any luck. Sync wheel keeps turning no matter how many times I restart Firefox, and this periodically interferes with multiple other Zotero functions, so am afraid to do new work using Zotero until it's resolved. Does anyone ha…
-
BTW - if I hover over the sync wheel it displays this message: "Upload accepted. Waiting for sync server", which is a different message from 2 days ago, but with same net effect (can't use all Zotero functions... and for an unacceptably long time).
-
My problem was not resolved by restarting Firefox. The good news is that new data DID synch, so were not lost. The bad news is that the constantly revolving progress wheel impedes / arrests other needed Zotero functions, such as being able to open…
-
The progress wheel has not stopped for last 15 hours and is still in motion. There is no progress bar showing. When I hover over the round sync icon it says "sync with zotero server. Getting updated data from sync server." BTW - I do have latest …
-
Dan - Same problems recurred today. Despite having reset sync history yesterday and installed updated Zotero versions on both computers, could not sync successfully today until I once again reset the sync history. Is there some solution, or am I …
-
Found and double checked preferences and am now good to go. Thanks Dan!
-
All your advice works (!), except... Can't fine Firefox preferences. Where are they?
-
Dan, On the laptop today I found the "reset history" button (in a different locale than on the desktop - I believe the laptop Zotero had it under history, rather than under preferences>sync). Anyhow, I reset the history on the laptop, hit the …

1)I never received an error icon. 2)While syncing, the green "dial" rotates clockwise for a bit. There is no progress bar that I can see. 3)Before posting my query, I had tried to do a reset full sync. This did not seem to have any effect. …
