Compile error in hidden module:Zotoro

grantystewart · March 29, 2014

Looking for help with an issue that I can find a little bit about on the web.

Used migration assistant with my new 2013 MBP.

Word not working properly so reinstalled Microsoft Office 2011, working well. Except that Zotero plug in is not working as it gives the following message: Compile error in hidden module:zotero

I have tried uninstalling zotero and deleting the Zotero.dot, then reinstalling Zotero. Still get the error.

Any suggestions?

Much appreciated

Simon might have other ideas, but start here: https://www.zotero.org/support/word_processor_plugin_troubleshooting#visual_basic_for_applications_error

(There's a good chance that this was caused by the Migration Assistant and reinstalling wasn't sufficient to fix it.)

Thanks Dan. I have tried these options with no success...

Hello, I am experiencing the same problem with Zotero after migrating from old macbook pro to a new one. I have reinstalled Office as well as Zotero and deleted old versions, but I continue to receive this error message. Any ideas? Thank you.

Hi. Wish I could help but I still have the same issue. Have to save my work and reference it on a different computer. Otherwise my Mac and zotero are great!
