downloading onto a mobile device issues
Zotero downloaded to my desktop and laptop fine. But when I tried to load it onto my iPhone or iPad I had the same problem. It seemed to want to load it into an app or other program. It suggest open pages or evernote. I do not know enough to fix this. Any suggestions? Sorry if the answer is posted elsewhere. I could not see a similar discussion. THANKS
Thanks, I knew there had to be another way. Papership looks like great addition to my iPad. Especially with the in app add on to annotate! I may just look at my info via the web on my iPhone. As the screen is so small.
I was in college in the early 80's. Doing on line masters now. It's amazing what technology can do now!! Kids have it soooo much nicer now with this and the internet. Thanks for your help!!
Back then manuscripts were written on a typewriter. References were formatted by hand.
When Medline came along until the early-mid 1990s a search was only possible via a dumb terminal. Search strings had to be constructed carefully because the charges were based upon characters in the search string and the number of items that were returned. If you wanted to search earlier years, the query required someone at the NTIS to physically change the tape on the refrigerator-sized mainframe drive. Tape changes were costly and greatly delayed results. A relatively simple search could require more than an hour before results were returned because of the queue. A more complex search and one that required tape changes required at least an overnight wait. One person's backfile request might delay everyone's search because (unless a backfile search was underway) the tape on the backfile drive was a duplicate of the current tape so that items could be accessed more quickly. Mainframe hard-drives were thought of as a near miracle but were primarily used as an index to improve the search speed of the linear-access tapes.
