@ryantkoehler: Your screenshots don't show the open Extensions menu.

No, that's about a different item. The error you reported above is for an item that's corrupted — likely because of something a plugin did. You can paste GSES8E2V into the search bar in All Fields & Tags mode to see the item in question. It's a…

The Zotero Connector saves locally to the Zotero desktop app by default. It's possible to give it permission to save directly to your online account from the extension settings, but that's not the normal way of using the extension.

We always need an example URL for problems with saving. If you're having trouble saving across many sites, see Troubleshooting Problems Saving to Zotero.

Zotero plugin just says it can't add it. What exactly does it say? That PDF saves fine for me. To be clear, that's just a random PDF document, so it will save as a standalone attachment and you'll need to create a parent item.

an option to re-synce from the online sotero which I chose. Zotero then quit What's the exact text of the "option" that you're referring to? I can't think of any such feature. In any case, I linked to instructions for restoring from automatic backu…

You have to say what the problem is, but whatever it is, 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 …

Have you run Zotero on this computer before? Did you transfer data from another Mac where you did use Zotero? Check the file permissions in your Zotero profile directory as well as /Users//Library/Caches/Zotero. (Follow similar steps as on the lin…

Can you provide a Debug ID for a sync that produces this?

Can you provide a Debug ID for a sync attempt that triggers this? Make sure this happens in Troubleshooting Mode (Help → "Restart in Troubleshooting Mode…”), which temporarily disables all plugins.

File would exceed quota (327.7 > 300) You can't upload it because it would exceed your free storage quota. You should be seeing a clearer error about that in the Android app while syncing. Are you not?
-
But that's not what we're asking for. We need a Debug ID that shows you adding the file and the subsequent automatic sync that doesn't upload the file. And we need the URL after actually clicking on the attachment row in the Attachments tab in the …

Can you go to Tools → Developer → Run JavaScript, run the following code, and let us know the output? return await Zotero.DB.valueQueryAsync('SELECT COUNT(*) FROM itemDataValues') + ' ' + await Zotero.DB.valueQueryAsync('SELECT COUNT(*) FROM itemDa…

Because there's no guarantee that the download URL for the PDF is the canonical, citable URL for the bibliographic item.

See Reporting Problems for what we need to help.

Snapshot saving just isn't something that's available in the iOS app at this time, and it's unlikely to ever be available from the web version for technical reasons. The desktop app will always have vastly more functionality than any other version.

Updating to point to a more relevant thread: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/comment/481806/#Comment_481806

I'd be surprised if this is something we could fix. Unlike in the thread you posted to (which was about a different issue), this error message isn't even identifying zotero.exe as the source of the error, just "Windows". And all we do is launch Acro…

That's a 503 Service Unavailable error from your WebDAV server.
-
See Step 5 again. We'd need to see a Debug ID for adding the file on Android and the subsequent sync, along with the zotero.org URL for the attachment item if this is about Zotero Storage.

To be clear, adding an entry to engines.json doesn't have anything to do with the Find Full Text feature. That just adds a lookup engine to the Locate menu that you can select manually. Find Full Text checks the main article page and, if it isn't a…

Make sure you've given the Zotero Connector permission to run on all sites.

Can you take a screenshot of where you're looking?

Non-English translations are contributed by Zotero users. If there's something you think should be different, suggest a specific alternative, and if others agree, someone involved with the translation can change it.

It sounds like this plugin isn't for you then. Many non-experts use it without a problem. You can find technical people you know (IT department, etc.) to help you set it up, or you can use any other OCR software to add text layers to your image-onl…

Actually, saving from the WorldCat site seems to be broken for me, so that might not work either. It's possible there was a recent site change that broke saving. ISBN lookups via Add Item by Identifier that require WorldCat also aren't working for …

I'm saying to save from worldcat.org with the Zotero Connector, the way you would save from any website. You're aware of that? That, not Add Item by Identifier, is the primary way of saving things to Zotero. https://www.zotero.org/support/adding_it…
