Zotero for Mac Word Integration Problem

Hey gang,

Checked the forum but whilst I can find posts where people have had similar problems, I haven't seen this one.

I have a MacBook Pro, was running OS X 10.5 and all my Zotero stuff worked fine, integrated with Word for Mac no problem.

Now i've (finally) updated to 10.6.8, I can't get it to work! When I try to install the plug in, I get an error message:

"Installation could not be completed because an error occured.

[Exception... "The file Zotero.dot couldn't be saved in the folder install. @[install:install.m:64]' when calling method: [nsIRunnable::run]" nsresult: "0x8057001e (NS_ERROR_XPC_JS_THREW_STRING)" location: "JS frame:: resource://zotero-macword-integration/installer.jsm:: <TOP_LEVEL> ;; line 67" data: no] "

Absolutely not a clue what any of this means, can anyone help?

Cheers!

  • Did you copy Zotero to your applications folder?
  • I thought I had! Anyway, i opened Zotero from within the applications folder (rather than just using the dock) and it seems to have worked fine!

    Clearly I was being a chump, cheers!
