reference is not correct even though PDF is and Zotero

BlackNotice
so I have this reference that Zotero produced in APA format for me. The 'M' should not be capitalized.

you can see from the image of the Zotero info there is no capital 'M', even in the PDF the 'M' is not capital. How do I remove this?

    What happens when you right -click --> create bibliography and then copy APA to clipboard & paste it here. Same issue?

    im sorry I am not following, right click in\on what? MS word? (I am also using a Mac and still on Zotero 6 if that matters).

    it looks good there

    Pretty sure the item in Word isn't connected to that item in Zotero. You either have a current duplicate, or you used to and deleted it, 'orphaning', if you will, the citation

    I am looking now and I don't see this as being a duplicate. How do I get rid of said orphan? Can I delete the (correct) entry and try again?

    thanks

    Remove the citation and reinsert it by selecting the citation that says "Library" and not document.
  • BlackNotice
    ok thanks guys that worked. I did see like 3 other references by that same name when I did that, so seems like there is a duplicate somewhere. I will keep an eye out for future mistakes.

    thanks
