Could you please try right-clicking on the installer and selecting 'Run as Administrator'? It might ask you to enter the admin user's password. If this helps and Zotero installs correctly, please let us know.
-
An alternative to consider is creating a private group library with file storage, joining it from both accounts, and dragging items and notes via the group.
-
You shouldn't use export for backup purposes. See https://www.zotero.org/support/zotero_data#backing_up_your_zotero_data

You're using the web library. The "Preferences Window" is only available in Zotero, the desktop application, which is also the primary way to use Zotero. You can download it here: https://www.zotero.org/download/ Afterwards, you can set up syncing…
-
Sorry, it's not possible to use WebDAV in the web library. Your files are stored on your WebDAV servers, and the web library does not have access to them.

Unfortunately, there is currently no functionality to perform multiple replacements on a single field, but we're considering various options for implementing this in the future. For your specific problem, wouldn’t it be more feasible to edit the it…
-
Thanks for the report, we will fix this.
-
If you're referring to the new file renaming functionality in Zotero 7, then the {{ journalAbbreviation }} field can be used in the filename template. As long as your metadata contains this information, file renaming will use it.
-
As explained in the file renaming documentation, replaceFrom uses regular expressions to perform the replacement. Therefore, "['f', 'a', 'e']" means match a single character present in the list below, and that matched value is being replaced with th…

The following template should be close to what you're looking for: {{ if {{ authors match="[^,]+,[^,]+,[^,]+" }} }} {{ authors max="1" suffix=" et al._" }} {{ else }} {{ authors join=" and " suffix="_" }} {{ endif }} {{ year suffix="_"}} {{ title }…

Settings -> Sync -> Show Reset Options (at the bottom, you might need to scroll to see it)
-
I'd move the opening bracket from suffix on authors to prefix on year. This makes more logical sense and also fixes cases where the date field is empty. I've tested the exact code you provided and couldn't identify the problem with having one or fo…

If it's just the file that you don't see (but the Zotero item changes sync correctly), please see: https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/files_not_syncing If no changes sync, please follow these steps: https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/changes_not_sync…

When you run the installer and are asked the question shown in your screenshot, choosing "No" should delete the entire folder where Zotero is installed (or display an error message if that's not possible). I'm surprised that, in your case, nothing h…
-
Sorry, just to clarify: I meant running the installer, not the Zotero program. You can download the Zotero installer from https://www.zotero.org/download/.
-
Did you try to run the installer again? If it displays a similar dialog, choose "No" and let us know if that helps.
-
This doesn't make much sense and is well beyond the scope of what the web library is designed for. The web library is a web-based application that relies on a set of server-side services. It is not capable of handling local files or local databases …
-
Following another user's report, we've discovered a potential bug that might be affecting your import as well. We'll update this thread once we have a fix.
-
This might be a bug, we're looking into it.
-
Somehow, the path we're getting from Mendeley is prefixed with a "/", which is confusing the importer. Also debug log does not contain the entire import process. If your Mendeley account is synced, I recommend using the online import method. You …
-
Thanks for the the detailed report. You're correct, removed annotations should also be automatically deleted in the web library shortly after syncing. We will investigate.
-
You can customize authors yourself, here is an example that will result in AuthA et al for three or more authors, but for two it will produce AuthA & AuthB for two authors. {{ if {{ authors match="[^,]+,[^,]+,[^,]+" }} }} {{ authors max="1" suf…
-
Thank you for reporting this problem. The order of tags will be fixed in the next release of Zotero, and it will also be corrected in the web library.
-
@RamonMi Unfortunately, the last part of your template won't work, as you can only specify one set of replaceFrom/replaceTo per variable. As I explained above, using case="snake" is the best the current system can do. By the way, I am also curious …
-
What happens is that the web library fetches all the tags (i.e. including automatic tags, presumably thousands or tens of thousands) and then filters them in the browser. In the future, we hope to move this process to the server side, which should m…
-
Thanks for the report. Is this happening in the main library view? How many tags do you have? When you apply any kind of tag filtering, the web library first fetches all the tags and then filters them locally. So when you see the spinner, it's doin…
-
You can use {{ authors join="&" }}. By default, the authors are joined with a comma (,) rather than the word "and". Please refer to the file renaming documentation for more details.
-
It might not be as user-friendly, but you can already achieve this using regex replacement. {{ firstCreator replaceFrom="et al.$" replaceTo="et al" }} With some additional effort, it's possible to use authors with formatting and logical statements…
-
Ensure there is no space character at the end of the line, as Zotero will not inject extra spaces. Also, make sure you are using the most recent version of Zotero, as earlier beta versions might have replaced newline characters with spaces. https:/…
