Hi all,

I would be really grateful for some help with this one, as I have a huge library of references and at the moment can't incorporate them into my write-ups..

I am currently working with Mac 10.6.4 and Word 2008.

Upon installation of the latest plugin for Word 2008 and the PythonExt, as recommended on the Zotero site, I find that Firefox will no longer open.. The icon bounces a bit in the tray, but then disappears again.

I can open in Safe Mode fine. I have tried Uninstalling both and just trying one of the two to determine which plugin is causing the problem, but it seems that both plugins are causing my Firefox to crash.

I've also tried installing older versions of the plug ins, but to no avail.

If this helps, this comes up in the Terminal...

Apologies if this problem has been posted on another thread, but I've looked through and can't see one that matches my problem.

Would be really grateful for some help with this one.. Rather annoying- I've just spent the last two years recommending Zotero to people and now I can't use it myself!

Cheers,
Michael
