"Trouble Updating Bibliographic References in a Lengthy Document: Seeking Guidance and Solutions"
Dear forum members,
I hope this message finds you well. I am reaching out to you seeking assistance with an issue I have been facing. It appears that I am having difficulties updating the bibliographic references in a lengthy 450-page document, where the references section alone spans approximately 50 pages. Unfortunately, this situation is affecting the functionality of both Word and Zotero, as they become unresponsive when attempting to perform the update.
I am using a MacBook Air M1 2020, and I have noticed that Zotero lacks a reliable information hub to address this matter. Therefore, I would like to kindly ask if you could provide any guidance or advice to help resolve this inconvenience. I have tried updating the entire bibliography, but I keep encountering constant errors.
I sincerely appreciate any assistance or suggestions you can offer to help overcome this obstacle. I am confident that your expertise and knowledge will be of great value in finding a suitable solution.
Thank you very much for your attention and willingness to assist. I eagerly look forward to your responses.
Warm regards,

Updating a huge bibliography on Mac Word can be quite slow, so you may just be waiting long enough. If you're getting an error, you'll need to say what the error message is and provide a Report ID.
You should also make sure that you've disabled "Automatically update citations" in the plugin's document preferences.
