Problems with EBSCO & Academic Search Premier
I get a "cannot save" error trying to download from either of these databases. However, I can download using Wilson. I have taken all the steps recommended in site translator issues. Nothing rectifies the problem. Can anyone help me? This problem began yesterday while I was downloading from Amazon.Com
If I open the PDF in FireFox, there's no Zotero icon in the address bar.
I can add the PDF separately by saving it to my computer and then attaching it to the web-page record, but that's tiresome.
I get similar problems intermittently on JSTOR via the NYSL portal as well.
I have the RealPlayer Browser Record Plug-in installed, and I think it was causing a translator problem, but I've disabled that, and the PDFs still won't save via Zotero.
Thanks for any help.
Best wishes,

JSTOR: you will have to once per session click "OK" to the JSTOR usage conditions for pdfs before automatic download works. (i.e. once manually download a pdf, after that it should work.)
especially 2, 4, 5, 8, 9, and if all that fails provide a report ID.
EBSCO has been having issues, but they have made some changes and ajlyon has recently done a lot of work on the translator. See this post for information on installing a new translator: http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/18789/1/ebsco-host-translators-not-working/#Item_11
It's still not perfect, but it's pretty good. The main problem now is with multiple downloads at once (clicking the folder icon). But single items work fine. At least they did yesterday! :)
