Bug in Citations in Word
Dear Zotero Community,
i am encountering a big problem with my Document. Whenever i click on any citations in the text , the text above diminishes, i cannot move up and down any more and word stops to react at all until i force it close using the task managern.
I working on a Mac , using word from , have updated Zotero to the newest version as well deleted and reinstallted the firefox connector.
I tried both to copy and paste and create a duplicate like proposed - didnt change anything.
Then i thought it it must a bugged citation, but even though i tried the method proposed of copying and narrowing down to the citation , i still dont get any further with this. It literally occurs with every single citation i know click in my text (which has a lot of citations by now).
This really makes working possible und truly affects me here. As it is the entire text (and copying and pasting nor the duplicate solves the problem) I somehow dont see any other option of copying it all by hand, so writing everything new.
I really dont understand this , so if anyone has a solution i am super grateful.
Best
Anne

Which Word version exactly?
I use word 16.36 with a universtiy account
The error as you describe it sounds more Word than Zotero related (Zotero doesn't really do anything unless you click one of its buttons in Word), so I think I'd focus more on the rest of the Word document than on the Zotero citations (which are just Word fields)
