Never mind, my storage quota had expired! Sorry!
-
Thank you for the advice to delete the LO user directory. I have actually had to rename my user directory three times already over a couple of years, and it is only because of zotero. Is there a way to get to the base of this and prevent me from hav…

I have also been wondering if annotations made in the internal pdf viewer could be saved in the pdfs themselves. Currently, they seem to only be saved in the library.
-
Sorry, I did run out of quota after all. I thought I would receive a warning when I get close to the quota, so I did not even bother checking. I will try to reduce the size of the library. Thanks again for your help and sorry about the noise.
-
I am the owner of the group and I bought quota, so I am not at the limit. For some reason, one of the members cannot download attachments.
-
I just figured it out. I had deleted the items from the group library after the originally failed attempts of adding them, then upgraded zotero and retried the procedure several times with the same effect. No problems with adding other items. Only a…

Thanks, I just uninstalled the old zotero and installed Zotero 5, but the problem persists. One particular paper, if I drag it onto my group library, the attachments are dropped when I see it in Zotero, and it does not show up at all in my group lib…
-
Thanks, but the instructions seem to be written for a newer version of zotero. Mine is zotero-standalone installed from the Debian repository and the version is 4.0.29.16. Do I need to unistall and manually install Zotero 5? If sync does not work wi…

For those that, like me, have been scratching their heads why they were getting the message "Attachments skipped because they are top-level items, snapshots, or the file does not exist" even for pdfs that were clearly not top level items and clearly…
-
I see, thank you! Now I went to the reference in the group library, clicked on "Add attachment" and attached the same file again. This made me realise that adding a reference incl. attachments to the group library creates a new directory in my local…

Thanks, Dan, and sorry for the late reply. I just installed Zotero 4.0.9 and the problem is still there. I drag&dropped a new reference containing a snapshot and a pdf, but only the snapshot appears in the group library. Could it be related to u…

1) "Automatically attach associated PDFs and other files when saving items" is activated, and all boxes in the Groups section are checked, too. 2) It is a private group and I am the owner. Is there a particular setting I need to check to enabl…

Thanks, Dan! That worked.
-
Thanks for your responses! In fact, I did have an item where >120 of the authors were squished in one creator field, but I downloaded a corrected reference and deleted the old one. Can it be that its mere presence in the trash collides with the s…

UPDATE: After de-activating the plugin Zotfile, the problem persists. No "Open in External viewer" in sight when right-clicking on a pdf-file in Zotero standalone.
-
It is version 3.0.11.1 and I'm told that there are no updates available. Yes, I was right-clicking on a pdf, but out of desperation, I also tried other file types with the same results. I am also using the Plugin Zotfile, could this have an influenc…

"I just tried - I get that options for all PDFs. Might be linux (me) vs. Mac?" I'm on Ubuntu 12.04, i.e. linux, and also do not have "Open in External Viewer" in Zotero Standalone. I would be great if I could choose the editor on a case-by-case…

I have a similar problem, without Word or Libreoffice running. Adding a reference 'by hand' is a painstaking effort with 10s of seconds waiting time while transitioning between every single field! Is there anything I can do to help debug this or get…
-
Joscha, thanks again for constantly improving this add-on and for considering all our special wishes. It's definitely worth a donation! I'm now using Zotfile 1.6.3 and batch renaming files and moving back and forth is fast and works like a breeze.…
-
It works indeed, thank you! Amazing. Just one more thing, it also moves and renames html files, although they are not on the list of file types in the zotfile preferences. Is this intended?
-
Thanks for the quick reply! I tried with both with 1.5.7 and zotfile_160b9.xpi. I'm running Zotero 2.1.8 on FF 5.0 in Ubuntu 11.04. I just noticed that the import stops when it hits an entry with a broken link, i.e. where the pdf file went missing…

Hi Joscha, I've been trying to batch-rename and move all my pdfs stored from the subfolders of zotero/storage/... into a single folder, so I marked all my entries and did a rename. However, despite asking me whether I was sure I wanted to do th…

I wanted a stand-alone zotero, because zotero keeps freezing my FF whenever I do a larger operation (sometimes to the extend that I have to force-quit). Before finding this thread, I just installed Firefox-portable in a dedicated directory may mac, …
