Upgrade StorageQuestion about library size for syncing to empty library
188BET靠谱吗Hello, I move between two computers with my Zotero, so I had been storing my primary library on an external drive.188BET靠谱吗However, I recently could not load my library, and I got t this message: "Errors were found in your Zotero database.You can use the database repair tool at
188BET靠谱吗//www.brodersterzo.com/utils/dbfixto attempt to correct these errors."
Based on material from this site, I'm prepared to download and back up my library from my Mac: 188BET靠谱吗//www.brodersterzo.com/support/zotero_data"
188BET靠谱吗"Restoring Your Zotero Data Using Zotero Syncing
188BET靠谱吗If you were using Zotero syncing and have an empty local library, you can likely restore your data simply by syncing with your online library.188BET靠谱吗After verifying that your library is correct on zotero.org, simply reenter your username and password in the Sync pane of the Zotero preferences and click the Sync button in the toolbar.188BET靠谱吗(Zotero only syncs explicit deletions, so just syncing an empty library won't overwrite the server data unless you deleted items manually.)
188BET靠谱吗If you have a local Zotero library that you want to overwrite, close Zotero and delete the old Zotero data directory before syncing.188BET靠谱吗Syncing your database with a different Zotero account will also prompt you to remove the existing local database."
However, I am concerned that my library will be too big to sync fully to my Mac.Is there a way I can check this?What would happen if the library were too large for the Mac?Thanks very much.

maddThanks.I am getting ready to sync to an empty library.I am nervous about this, as I would not want the empty library to overwrite my online library (which represents many years of work).188BET靠谱吗Can you please confirm that if I sync to am empty library, that it will just move the online library to my local computer and that it will not erase my online Zotero library?Thank you.

dstillmanedited June 27, 2024188BET靠谱吗No, setting up Zotero on a new computer won't wipe out your existing library.It's just like any other sync system (Dropbox, etc.) — you can obviously start using it on a new computer.
