Navigate to the location where you exported your EndNote library (if you followed the above instructions, this should be My Documents\endnote.Data) and select the. A dialog box will appear asking you to select the file to import. In Zotero, click “Import…” in the File menu. After you have imported your library and checked to be sure you are satisfied with the imported data, you can re-enable automatic sync.

You should also temporarily disable automatic sync in Zotero's Sync preferences. In that event, simply restore your library from the backup. This can avoid frustration if you do not like the way your library has transferred. If you are not importing into an empty library, we highly recommend making a backup of you Zotero data directory.
