Could we get exact steps to reproduce from either of you? Generally speaking, .nbib import works fine, but it's certainly possible there's a problem with a specific file.
A few minutes ago I downloaded and imported an nbib file with 100+ records. Mid-morning (California time) today I downloaded and imported nbib with 80 records. The PubMed site was working fine for me on a residential cable connection.
Are you doing Send-to / Citation Manager / Create File ? Then within Zotero File / Import and selecting the recent nbib file in the download directory.
Are the PubMed records only journal articles or a mix of item types? Sometimes I find that the types pmcbook and "video-audio media"[pt] produce peculiar nbib records (but not so bad as to failing to import). I don't want them so I NOT those types out of my standard search strings.
@lexie1923 If you 1) normally have no problem importing nbib files, and 2)the number of items is only about 5 or 6; list the PMID numbers and I'll test them. My daily work is dependent upon importing nbib files into Zotero and I want to identify potential problems before I encounter them. edit: @adamsmith Does the Zotero nbib import cope with emoji and malformed non-Roman characters? I've seen but have never tested importing PubMed records with these.
@jitinbajaj: Can you reproduce this reliably? If so, check your database integrity from the Advanced → Files and Folders pane of the Zotero preferences. If that passes, can you ZIP the file you're trying to import and send to support@zotero.org with a link to this thread?
For others, we'd want a Debug ID for an import attempt that failed.
