Can't save from Google Books

tkelly7 · August 20, 2009

I have been unable to save an item from Google books. The error message was Cannot Save Item and advised me to check known translator issues. I didn't see any there. My error report ID was 1548411259. The item URL was:

http://books.google.com/books?id=yrETAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA105&dq=max+farrand+history+in+the+college&ei=waSNSt3oKabAygSlnMW8Bw#v=onepage&q=&f=false

Any suggestions? (I'm running ver 2.0b6.5).

Thanks for reporting this. This is now fixed. Your copy of Zotero should auto-update within 24 hours, or you can update manually by clicking Update Now in the General pane of the Zotero prefs.

Note that you won't get much useful data out of that record—just title and date, because that's all that's available from Google. Zotero was expecting a publisher and was failing when it wasn't there.
