citations don't update
Hi,
I am new to Zotero, being a previous endnote user. I am writing a manuscript in Word, using the Zotero Word plug-in. Everything is up to date and I have even re-installed the plug-in. When I insert a new citation before previously inserted citations, the citation in the text is not updated for the subsequent citations, although it is updated correctly in the bibliography. Is there a solution to this problem?

Press alt+F9 - that will show all the field codes for the citations that Zotero inserts. Delete the troublesome citation and make sure all field codes get deleted.
Then try inserting it again.
If that doesn't work, you'll probably have to run through these:

It sounds like then things got actually corrupted when you deleted the citation and likely left part of the Zotero field standing.
Do you have this fixed now?
You may even be able to get the same dialogue again for all items you answered "yes" on by changing the citation style (and then presumably changing it back.
