older versions of zotero

roberto.kopkesalinas
Dear All,
I have an old mac computer, and thus I need to install the older versions of Zotero. Changing computer is not an option to me.
Does anyone know where can I find them in zotero website?

Thank you,

Roberto

    All old Zotero versions follow the same URL pattern as the current downloads, just replace the version numbers.
    If "old mac" means Power PC, though, there has never been a working Standalone version and working with the old Zotero version and Firefox 3.6 is increasingly impractical (citation styles won't work, translators won't update & may not work etc.). In that case you should try & see if Zotero's current installation works with tenfour fox.
    If you have an intel mac, you should at least consider updating to a OS after 10.6.3, which isn't expensive.

    Thanks for your reply. Could you please send me a link?
    As far as I've tried all links to the older versions return to the current version.
  • adamsmith
    well for which version?

    A link for version 2.0 for firefox or 3.0 standalone, I expect one of them will work with MacOSX 10.5

    Gracile's link has the download link for the Standalone 3.0.8.1 which works with OS X 10.5
    http://download.zotero.org/standalone/3.0.8.1/Zotero-3.0.8.1.dmg
    The corresponding version for Firefox is
    http://download.zotero.org/extension/zotero-3.0.8.xpi
    not 100% sure about the requirements there, probably Firefox 10-16 will all work.

    Note that using outdated browser versions exposes yourself and others to security threats.

    Thank you. I tried the standalone version, it synchronized with my library on-line, it seems to work well.

    Dear all, I am using microsoft word version 15.11.2 in mac. New jotero(5.0) is compatible with the version of microsoft word I use. Ans I am also not able to update the version of my word. Kindly suggest the way to install jotero into my system

    I don't believe there's any Zotero version that'll work with Word for Mac 2016 that old, sorry. Word processor integration was just broken for those early versions (which were also beta versions of Word for Mac, I believe).

    Yes, those versions of Word 2016 were very unstable. You should update your Word installation to the current version (which would be free to do).
