juris-m: word won't recognise juris-m anymore
Hi, I just downloaded and installed the latest version of juris-m (5.0.83m3). before it worked just fine. now word thinks zotero is not open, i.e. won't connect to juris-m.
my stats:
mac 10.12.6
ms word 2011 version 14.3.8
I am slightly panicked - in the middle of writing my master's thesis.
thanks for any advice.

am still having the same issue: "Word could not communicate with Zotero. Please ensure Zotero is running and try again.”
can someone explain to me what the following instructions from the troubleshooting page mean?
"Windows plugins communicate with Zotero using the remote window. Thus, launching Zotero with the -no-remote command-line option will prevent the plugins from functioning. (You might do this accidentally if you have multiple Zotero profiles.) The solution is to remove the -no-remote command-line option from the shortcut used to launch the Zotero profile (this flag should never be used with Zotero)."
14.3.8 is an extremely old version of Word 2011. While it may not help with this issue, if you're going to stay on Word 2011, you should start by updating to the last available version, which is 14.7.7.
Jurism uses the same word processor integration plugins as Zotero. To avoid possible mis-communication between Word and the Jurism client, be sure that Zotero is not also running (normally either should refuse to run if the other is already up, but if Zotero is running, be sure to stop it).
If you still have problems after following @dstillman's suggestions, try stopping Jurism, and running Zotero (installing if necessary) for a fresh trial. If the problem persists in Zotero, open a separate forum thread (for clarity) and Zotero staff can advise.
If the connection works in Zotero but not in Jurism, post back here, and I'll track down the cause.
I am having a same problem. For new mac, the jurism M Plugin has vanished from Microsoft word.
If you close Jurism M and open zotero standalone, the zotero plug in for word works. However, if you open Juris M and try to use the same plug in, it doesn't work at all
In mac, you can only open Juris M or Zotero at one time. I need Juris M plugin for legal citations, and not just zotero
Troubleshooting hasn't helped.
Are there any news on that topic?
Right now the plug in recognizes Zotero. If Zotero is open and running the plug in will connnect and work as expected. It will completely ignore Juris-M. If only Juris-M is open I receive an error "Word could not communicate with Zotero. Please ensure that Zotero is open and try again."
Could anyone help me brainstorm what might be causing this? Alternatively, if someone has a link to the Juris-M discord, I would love to poke around for solutions there.

You can copy out the Zotero.dotm file from the Jurism's folder to somewhere else first and rename it as Jurism.dotm, before moving it into the Word startup folder, so it would not overwrite the Zotero.dotm already in Word's startup folder. The end-result would be two Zotero tabs, which is not pretty, but at least it somehow works. Just got to try which tab fires up Zotero or Jurism.
Edit: I just realised this method disables Zotero 7's integration. Not advised for now.
