Import fails every time - Report ID 1679387355

TonjePhd
I am trying to import 5k references in a RIS file. Process fails towards the end every time.

I get errors like these:

[JavaScript Error: "Discarding invalid field 'volume' for type 7 for item 1/null"]

[JavaScript Error: "out of memory"]

[JavaScript Error: "out of memory"]

[JavaScript Error: "uncaught exception: out of memory"]

[JavaScript Error: "uncaught exception: out of memory"]

Can anyone help?

Thanks

    You're running out of memory, which is a known issue with large imports from some formats that we'll hopefully have a fix for soon. Depending on how much RAM this computer has, you can try immediately after restarting with all other programs closed.

    But for a RIS file, you can also just open the file in a text editor (Notepad, Notepad++, TextEdit on a Mac, etc.) and split it into a few smaller chunks between entries, and then import those.
