ProQuest New York Times Archive error
Hi,
I need to download the Full-Text PDF files from a search. Yesterday I came across Zotero which I am using right now. When at a certain page with part of the results, I use the Zotero plug-in (both Chrome and Firefox are used) to download the files.
This is going perfect for the first files (batch of 10 or 20). But when I move on to the next page with results and do the exact same it mostly gives the error:
An error occurred while saving this item. See Troubleshooting Translator Issues for more information.
However, after reading the forum and the website I could not find what the exact problem is here. The weird thing is that it succeeds one or two times and then crashes..
Would this be a error of me doing it wrongly or is this a general concern (regarding an updated ProQuest database for example)?

This is an old discussion that has not been active in a long time. Before commenting here, you should strongly consider starting a new discussion instead. If you think the content of this discussion is still relevant, you can link to it from your new discussion.
However, there may be a download maximum as well here. But that’s not 20 a month as the code at least (sometimes even more) provides 20 results a day.
So far I could not figure out whether this is a real NYT restriction or a bug in Zotero.
I've checked and I can download articles from the 2nd and 3rd page of the PQ Historical NYTs database without issues.
