Something wrong w/ Amazon site translator?
Hi:
I haven't seen anything precisely dealing w/ the problem I'm having. I've always found it easy enough to search for a title on Amazon, hit the "book" icon or the "folder" icon, and save the cite to my Zotero library. But now, everytime I'm getting an error saying "Could not save item. An error occurred . . . ". I've gone thru the troubleshooting tips and everything seems fine. I'm having no problem saving from a library catalog. But I did go over to Borders.com to try, and there, i'm not even getting "book" icons to appear. Anyone know what might be going on? Thanks much!

Please post a sample URL from amazon.
one post is enough ;-)
here's an amazon link that doesn't work for me:

thanks!

All the best and thanks for the product.
The specific book I had trouble with was:
http://www.amazon.com/World-Food-Problem-Toward-Undernutrition/dp/1588266389/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1252347340&sr=8-2
But, as I said, it now works.
Thanks,

I just downloaded Zotero on my Macbook Pro running Max OSX 10.5.8 and FF 3.5.5. I've tried accessing several sites with Zotero activated but my translators don't activate. I've followed the steps on the trouble shooting pages (deleting cache and library files) to no avail.
On amazon I accessed this URL: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=halo+books&x=0&y=0
And on the NY Times: http://www.nytimes.com/2009/11/15/business/15digi.html?_r=1&ref=business
I just tested FF 3.5.5 and zotero 2.0b7.4 on a Windows XP machine and the same issue presented itself.
Thank you for your time,
Brent
