Importing RIS format txt file error
I'm trying to import RIS format txt file exported from EndNote but keep getting errors.
The error says "An error occurred while trying to import the selected file. Please ensure that the file is valid and try again.".
I'm using Zotero 3.0.3.
I really hope I can move from Endnote to Zotero coz I like this a lot.
If it's possible, I can send my text file so that some people can take a look to decide if my exported txt has problems. Thank you!

E.g. The following one does not work.

AB - A variety of recent advances in single-molecule methods are now making possible the routine measurement of the distinct catalytic trajectories of individual enzymes. Unlike their bulk counterparts, these measurements directly reveal the fluctuations inherent to enzymatic dynamics, and statistical measures of these fluctuations promise to greatly constrain possible kinetic mechanisms. In this chapter, we discuss a variety of advances, ranging from theoretical to practical, in the new and growing field of statistical kinetics. In particular, we formalize the connection between the hidden fluctuations in the kinetic states that compose a full kinetic cycle and the measured fluctuations in the time to complete this cycle. We then discuss the characterization of fluctuations in a fashion that permits kinetic constraints to be easily extracted. When there are multiple observable enzymatic outcomes, we provide the proper way to sort events so as not to bias the final statistics, and we show that these classifications provide a first level of constraint on possible kinetic mechanisms. Finally, we discuss the basic substrate dependence of an important function of the statistical moments. The new kinetic parameters of this expression, akin to the Michaelis-Menten parameters, provide model-independent constraints on the kinetic mechanism. Copyright (c) 2010 Elsevier Inc.

If I only copy the first one, it works.
So it's consistent with txt file. Must be something wrong with the second entry?

My suspicion is that it's Windows specific, some stupid encoding hangup - Windows likes to get those.
How large is your total library, maybe we can find a workaround?
@adamsmith I thought you were dual-booting
Seems it's the same error.
Unless Dan can see something useful in the bug reports, it would be great if you could upload the file that is not working somewhere (not copy-paste it). E.g. dropbox or fileswap or whatever you prefer. If you don't want to upload it anywhere, Dan may tell you to email it to Zotero.
Aurimas did some work on the translator recently and maybe that makes a difference.
I tried another txt file but I think they all share the same problem.
@adamsmith, I'm using 3.0.3, which button should I click in order to update the translator? Reset translators?
Does Debug ID is D173530153 offer any further information?

Seems tY - JOUR is a syntax error?
Maybe Dan or Simon know more about that syntax error - I have nothing.
I'm not sure if sending your file somewhere is going to be worth it since if I understood you correctly you get the same problem using copy & import from clipboard, right? Or Aurimas, what did you have in mind?
Thank you.
I've created a ticket to shorten too-long filenames automatically on import. In the meantime you'll have to either shorten the filenames manually or move your Zotero data directory to a shorter path.
Is there a way just to copy the file paths through which I can open the original pdf file in Zotero?
Thank you, Dan! You are awesome.
