Note for some technical problems

This note is just for me but opened for someone necessary…

  1. Some API in PowerAutomate
  2. File sharing by macOS13 Ventura
  3. Zotero data restoring

I have created a flow of PowerAutomate last year but it is no longer worked. It automatically detect a message in a chatroom of Teams that includes special keywords and send a message content to specific address via an e-mail. The API I used was obsoleted and I cannot use that anymore. I have no solution found.

When I upgrade my macOS from 12 to 13 (Ventura), I found something wrong with File-Sharing function. Even if the function is ON in the system settings of the OS, it does not work. In such a case, the solution is that we should switch OFF on the system setting and restart the OS. Then we should turn ON of the function. It works. This cumbersome operation is necessary at several events such as connected network changed, OS restarting and so forth. I hope the developper of the OS in Apple will change this.

I’m using orcid, Mendelay and Zotero for managing my literature review. Regarding local operation of surveying literatures, I often use Zotero on both Windows and macOS in my private network without online account of Zotero. Robocopy that works periodically in the task-scheduler is used to share data storage of Zotero from Windows11 to macOS13. When the robocopy batch job is starting, I unexpectedly used Zotero on macOS and found no problem at that time. However, after that it happened. Concretely, when my Zotero storage was broken on Windows side, I copied the data from macOS to Windows but failed. I learned that data copy of Zotero from one computer to another computer in such a manner should be taken care that we should not open Zotero during data copy. If the data with sqllite has broken, we can recover it by clean all settings and delete data once then, copy the whole data. After these operation, we can successfully open the Zotero again. This solution is actually described at the official site but I’m just a user and I have no responsibility for this.
