Upgrade Storagecitations misplaced after upgrade to zotero 2.1
Some weeks ago I upgraded to zotero 2.1 and since then there appear to be a number of more or less serious issues with a rather large document (40,000 word) that I had started using an older version. (BTW I use OO 3.2.0, Firefox 3.6.12, and the OpenOffice plugin.) (Actually, so far I have had no opportunity to check whether the following errors persist with a newly created document.)
Some issues are harmless, such as the duplication of citations, e.g.: "Barlev/Haddad (2003, p. 398-403)(2003, p. 398-403) are an exception."
Also unproblematic is the fact that sometimes I am prompted to start Firefox when inserting/editing a citation, even though Firefox IS open. Restarting always works.
More worrisome is the fact that references appear to have been exchanged or have somehow gotten confused. An example:
"Lately, this distinction has also been applied to the field of accounting standards, namely by Nölke/Perry (Flower, 1997; Hoarau, 1995; Nobes, 2003; for critique see Alexander & Archer, 2000)."
The reference here is to Nölke/Perry, therefore nothing but dates and pages should appear in the zotero citation in brackets. The reference to Flower, Hoarau and the others does appear (or rather should appear) at a different place in the document, which is why it seems as if zotero (or the OpenOffice integration) has simply misplaced the citations. The interesting thing is that this has not happened throughout the document but only in certain sections.
I have already updated to the latest Zotero version (2.1.5), but no change. Is there any way of correcting that last problem? It would save me the trouble of reinserting a fair few citations.
Cheers,
Julian

This is an old discussion that has not been active in a long time. Instead of commenting here, you should start a new discussion. If you think the content of this discussion is still relevant, you can link to it from your new discussion.
thanks for your reply!
No, I am not using track changes. I just upgraded to OO 3.3, but without success.
