Timestamps are 5/9, 5/10, and 7/17

I have TimeMachine. I've never manually backed up any files from Zotero. I answered "names" and "locations" in the Dropbox link. The file sizes vary: 5MB, one file named "zotero.sqlite-journal" at 427KB, and one file named "zotero.sqlite-old" at 95…

I found a file that is 5MB. I've renamed it zotero.sqlite. My Zotero is off. I tried to open it. Zotero told me to download the most recent edition of Zotero. I downloaded the most recent edition of Zotero 5.0.53. I opened the edition of Zotero.…

Could you just tell me what the next step is? I've given you screenshots in the dropbox link. What am I missing? I'm honestly asking for help.

I'm still a bit confused as to the difference between what you mean by "data" and the actual files that pull up when I click "Data Directory" in my Zotero Preferences. Because of this miscommunication, I'm attaching a Dropbox link with the process I…

I just found one from 4/25. Name: "zotero.sqlite.old" Size:958KB Location: "ColtonMoore1" (Colton is my name)

Because when I "sync," after rearranging these file names, nothing changes. Even my online account doesn't show any changes.

Do I understand correctly? The "zotero.sqlite" file is THE file that contains what your Zotero library CURRENTLY shows you?

I found other zotero.sqlite files dating back to May. When I rename the old zotero.sqlite file to "zotero.sqlite.old" and replace it with the NEW zotero.sqlite file, I reopened Zotero (after upgrading to the 5.0), and there are no files.

Thanks, Dan. You've written extensive instructions. I'll figure it out. Just know that it would be of great help if you provided screenshots with all your instructions for those of us who are unfamiliar with some of the jargon.

Where can I find a "timetamp?" And what is a "filesystem?" I apologize that I am such a burden regarding all this. I simply just don't know what the article is saying. I understand that it's clearly written, but I just don't understand the jargon. …

That is, how do I open them to "check the dates?"

How do I open the zotero.sqlite., zotero.sqlite.bak., zotero.sqlite.1.bak. files? I click but there isn't an application on my MacBook that will allow it to open?

To clarify, here is the process to which I'm referring: (1) I click "Data Directory" (2) My home directory (I use Mac) opens up and I see a folder entitled "Zotero." (3) I open the file entitled "Zotero." (4) That file contains 38 files of the 5…

Thanks, Dan. The data that I'm looking at are the current files in my Zotero (38 files). But I'm not sure how to retrieve the other 500ish files. I don't see those when I click my Zotero Data Directory. What exactly is a "back up?" Is this a file …

I am not able to locate any data that was present before the supposed April 25th deletion of my files. Is there a way I can just simply find a "history" of syncs and choose to open the files that were in my Zotero before April 25th? I'm sorry, I'm…
