@damnation Do you think you could take a look at cleaning it up a bit?

I already have thousands of files named this way, since this is how I started doing it 20-odd years ago with ProCite. Each new addition gets the BBT-citekey treatment (much faster than manually). Than

Hmm, yes. I'm just going through (and cleaning up for Zotero) my thousands of refs imported from EndNote and noticed that there is no Date field for podcast (I have around a half-dozen of these). I pu

When's the last time you actually used Zotero on the other computer? Migration Assistant should've copied your files exactly as they were. If you recently used some sort of disk-cleaning tool — includ

But assuming all the zotero.sqlite files are 1 MB, you or something on your system (e.g., some sort of system-cleaning software) deleted your Zotero database, leaving behind just the 'storage' folder
