  • IT WORKED! Picture confetti flying through the air! I am going to assume the problem was that I had linked attachments in some cases, rather than stored, and that the ones I happened to choose to test were linked. So it did not work. But …
  • OK, feeling less intimidate, I did the other two steps. My storage is at 45.1% (of 1 GB). The sync criteria you listed for Preferences are all as they should be. So steps 2 and 3 also seem to be green. That being the case, I am going to try my t…
  • Whew. OK. I will take this one step at a time. :-) Thank you. First step: I followed your first set of instructions. At first I was confused because the file was not where I expected it to be; it was in a folder on my hard drive (not in …
  • I think i'm doing this ALL wrong, and I am about to panic. I found this on the forums: http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/18604/file-syncing-not-working-with-attachments/ where you explained how to find that 8-digit identifier. But I can't figu…
  • I am not sure I did that correctly, so I tried again with a different file. The debug ID is D255673214. The file is named "Anglo-Texas Legistlation, List of the General Ordinances and Decrees of the Provisional Government of Texas 1835-1839." The…
  • I think I did it. It gave me this message: " The Debug ID is D1697879640" I have to add some additional information that makes me think you are correct and I am incorrect. This time, before I did anything, I did a search in my online Zotero …
  • OK, at least now I can see where the problem is. The modification time is not changing or updating in the view pane for the attachment in Zotero (on my computer) when I change and save the file on my computer itself. The modification time DOES cha…
  • Thank you! You are a lifesaver!!
  • Thank you once again! Does it make any difference in the file's updating when I sync if I use the "attach stored copy of file" or the "attach link to file" command? Or will both of those keep updating the file as I edit it?
  • How would I be able to check the modification time on the file when it updates? Is there a place I can look for that? (And will having run the Reset File Sync History have messed me all up already?)
  • OK, pardon me! What I pasted in was a note from THAT file! Sheesh! I am so emabarrassed! The actual instruction said to reset the synced files and that is what I did. You have my permission to laugh uproariously at my mistake! :-)
  • I did not understand what "modification time of the local file changes" meant, but I went to the link you posted and found this instruction: "On November 24, 1836, the Republic of Texas, by joint resolution to its laws, again provided legal means f…
  • Thank you for this additional, very helpful, information! It is VERY helpful!! -- Dawn
  • Thank you very much! I will look this up so I understand it better. :-)

  • Thank you, Adam! -- Dawn
  • Thank you, Dan! This worked great!!
  • I love Zotero but the highlighting inconsistencies are driving me nuts. So today I upgraded and now it doesn't work at ALL. It's as if the highlighting tool is "dead" - no response whatsoever. Does anyone know where there is troubleshooting infor…
