@petzi:

As I mentioned in a previous post in this thread, the CSV "file attachments" must exactly coincide with the path of your Zotero books. If your CSV file is corrupt or erroneous, then ZMI cannot possibly find your Zotero books.

If the "key" column (the very first column) is corrupt, it is just as fatal.

Perhaps you should determine why Zotero is exporting a corrupt CSV file. If you cannot, try doing a manual "search and replace" on the very first column, "key", to change it to remove the leading "". I have absolutely no control over what Zotero exports to its CSV file. It is up to you to ensure that the file is correct.

Use Libre Office or Open Office to change the .csv. Be sure to save it as UTF-8.

You should not change the encoding just because you have umlauts. UTF-8 encoding handles Deutsch just as it handles any other European language. If you changed it, then it is possible that the change caused the corruption.

Try exporting many Zotero books to the Zotero CSV file, not just two (2). That is not enough to draw a conclusion as to the source of the problem. Export at least twenty (20).

Good luck.
