Thanks, indeed this is a possibility I somehow didn't think of..
-
Well, but you could at least have a report of how many and what records have a URLs that bring to a 404 page or are redirected; I have a very large library (20 thousand records) built in the last 6 years, and i get more and more broken links in my b…

Thanks!

Thank you for your answer; no I don't have a library shared on a network drive; I have my personal library on my PC, and a group library shared with colleagues that will still use Zotero 4.0. for some time; both libraries though are synced through Z…
-
Thanks, I see now it's the "No group file storage" library setting. However How do i remove the files uploaded so far? I still see that there are some 155 MB files stored for the Group Library..
-
thanks, yes I don't need file sync, but I still have 2 problems: 1) how do I remove the pdfs of the group library from the zotero server, now that they have been uploaded, as there is no purge function for group libraries as far as I understand? 2…

I would like to come back on this question, as me and my colleagues all working on a firefox portable version (because in our protected environment we cannot run other browser except IE)we are all experiencing the same extreme slowness, in opening t…
-
Thanks for your answer, Dan. Well I'm using since admasmith pointed it out, but my collegaue didn't. We will set the auto-sync on. To be honest I thought it was safer to sync form time to time only when you were sure the collection was ok, but appar…
-
thanks, to be honest this sync is a real issue; I checked time set on all the PCs mine and of the colleague who works on the shared library and there are no differences; however this week it did it again! I passed the weekend cleaning up the shared …
-
Thanks Adam, for both answers. As far as reappearance of cleaned up collections and items I'm a bit puzzled. I do these clean-up regularly and also only limited to my personal library. The typical example is that: I always have a top folder called "…
-
well, I did again a check database integrity, and a "compact database" through a small app called SQLLiteDatabaseBrowser, I don't know if that was effective, however since yesterday responsiveness has dramatically improved; It takes 30 seconds to op…
-
sorry I forgot. Yes it is minimized.
-
Thanks, however the portable version here is not running on an external disk; I'm running it on my hard drive; the reason why I chose the portable version (the porting that portableapps does) is that you can install from a zip file and you dont'have…
-
oh sorry I didn't know it existed also beta builds between regular versions. thanks
-
sorry but you're takning about a beta vesrion; however this happens with the firefox extension too, which is not a beta. I have the 4.0.22
-
I see, thanks. Will try the new beta as soon as it is available. No the tag selector is closed.
-
thx, indeed you are right: the launchNonNativeFile hidden preference is set to the default; and it looks more a problem of FF settings; However I never understood very well how this settings for opening files work in FF; in fact, when you open a pdf…
-
Hello, I reopen this discussion because I got the same error with the following caveat: I also run FF portable though not on a USB stick put from my pc. I have to run a portable version, because I don't have admin rights and can't install the Zoter…
-
the start was amazingly slow 30 to 60 seconds in the past days, and so was the search, or just positionig on a large collection. However I will monitor that accurately, amd possibli open a new thread. thanks
-
thanks, I will do. Of course now that I wanted to debug, it is not so slow as in the past days and weeks; just to avaoid sending you a useless debug, how long you consider to be an 'unusual' zotero start? 10,20,30,60 seconds ? best regards
-
may I add a comment on slowness? I'm also experiencing problems of slow performances on my windows machine, and this since before the latest realase. However contrary to sobreiro, I'm not doing a full-text sync; nor I sync my pdf files; i just manua…
-
sorry for replying so late, I was far from my PC for the last few days; the answer is yes. I re-installed ZS and got the same message error at start; so I decided to delete the profile folder, which in my case is installed on a different drive, and …
-
Now I see, sorry for misunderstanding. best regards
-
thanks for the hint, will look into it. But what you mean by finer-grained item types? sorry I don't know this term
-
You are probably right, from a citational point of view it doesn't change anything, but from the point of view of the organization of my references it does; Anyhow I can live with that, thanks. Do you know bt the way, if massive editing (always ris…
-
I don't know if this fit this post, but it is certainly true that there are many working papers or just papers which do not fit any of the existing item types; e.g: many papers in the the subject filed of foreign affairs, or economics, as suggested …
-
I wish you an excellent work, and keep on doing such a good tool, I appreciate it very much and spreading the voice, although you certainly don't need it. best regards Michele
-
oh, I see, I'm trying different files now and get diverse responses, so maybe that is really indeed the reason although I'm quite surprised to have stumbled in so many protected files; I will check those I have at the library; thanks and sorry for h…
-
For your info, I reinstalled everything from the scratch; now some pdf files seem to be indexed; but still i have problem with some others: I submitted another report bug with ID: 4202915 as the error message seems to be different. the pdf file tha…
-
Yes that was when I had discovered that it was the security at work which didn't allow me to install pdf tools from Zotero; but eventually Dan provided a location where to download Zotero's version, so i did it and replaced originals with zotero's o…
