@italonc: That's never going to happen. The desktop and mobile apps are built on completely different architectures and use completely different databases.
-
@felixturbanisch: Shift-Tab is the universal shortcut on all operating systems for going back one place in the tab order. That's all that is. It should be sufficient to start typing when the collections pane is selected You can, but that's find-as-y…

You just hadn't said that you were referring to the Google Docs plugin. I can reproduce with that. We'll investigate.

Are you able to provide a Debug ID for Zotero startup? https://www.zotero.org/support/reporting_problems#reporting_startup_errors
-
Can you provide a screenshot or link to a screen recording? Does it happen if you restart in Troubleshooting Mode (Help → "Restart in Troubleshooting Mode…”)? Does it happen if you try the Zotero beta? (Assuming this is Windows, you can try the ZI…

You likely just tried too many times with the wrong password and were temporarily blocked. Try again now or reset your password.

(Be sure to note when you're running the beta.) (1)(+0000018): DOMException: Could not read `C:\Users\[…]\Zotero\storage\XAIBBTM2\.zotero-reader-state': encountered an unexpected error (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) Zotero is getting a generic error when it tri…

Note that that's not a "cache file" — it stores your Zotero preferences.
-
You'll need to say what the actual problem is that you're experiencing. See Steps to Reproduce for the kind of description we need.
-
Added, thanks.
-
Can you say more? Did this just happen once, or is it reproducible? If the latter, what do you have to do to get it to occur? Does it happen in Troubleshooting Mode (Help → "Restart in Troubleshooting Mode…”), which temporarily disables all plugins?…
-
Why do you think this has something to do with a corrupted zotero.sqlite file? If you're syncing and the online library matches your local library, you just made changes to the local library that were synced — a corrupted database can't cause items …
-
You'll need to say what the actual problem is that you're experiencing. See Steps to Reproduce for the kind of description we need. You should also update to the latest version of Zotero (currently 7.0.24) via Help → Check for Updates. You're on an…

We can only help with supported browsers, but why do you think this is related to Zotero? Does the problem go away if you disable the Zotero Connector and reload the page, and does it come back if you re-enable the extension and reload the page?
-
Deleted what from where?
-
Nothing there seems to show any Zotero files. The last screenshot shows an .exe in some unrelated folder on your computer. You might have some malware on your computer that's trying to infect Zotero files as you install them.
-
You'll need to say what the actual problem is that you're experiencing. But first, restart in Troubleshooting Mode (Help → "Restart in Troubleshooting Mode…”), which temporarily disables all plugins. If that fixes the problem, you'll need to identif…

Restart in Troubleshooting Mode (Help → "Restart in Troubleshooting Mode…”), which temporarily disables all plugins. If that fixes it, you'll need to identify the plugin that's causing it and then report the problem to the plugin's developer. If not…
-
You should be able to restore from one of the automatic backups on this computer or the computer that hasn't yet synced the deletions. (On the other computer, you could also make a copy of zotero.sqlite — not the backups — before starting Zotero and…
-
Note that the icon is only a Z — gray or red, depending on browser — now on new tabs and other special pages where the extension can't operate. Generally it's just an item-type icon, which provides a signal about the kind of data that Zotero has det…
-
And from the one where you're seeing Number? Number isn't a valid locator, though it's possible some other locator is localized as "Number" in some locale. Are you thinking of "Issue"?
-
Start by installing the latest version of Zotero from the download page over your current version. (The version you have, 7.0.16, isn't currently being automatically updated.) Your data won't be affected. If it still happens after that, can you pro…
-
And as I said via email: the requests we saw were search requests (by DOI), which would have very strict rate limits. If all you're trying to do is move all items, or all new items since the last check, there are vastly more efficient ways to do tha…

Just download Zotero again from the download page. Your data won’t be affected.
-
Not sure what you mean here. The extension provides the option of what collection to save to as long as you're saving to the desktop app and not the online library. (The only exception is direct PDF saves in Firefox, for technical reasons.)
-
What style?
-
No, sorry, we don’t support that type of annotation.
-
@franz47: Why do you need to “look up” the filename, though? 1) Filenames match the parent item metadata, which you can see in the row above. 2) If you want to copy the exact filename, you need to do that in the right-hand pane anyway. 3) If you …

Can you provide a Report ID and screenshot of the drop-down from the computer where you're not seeing it?
