I tried Zotero on anoter document and I was able to cite the document ,but isn't Zotero made for huge documents to save time?I'm talking about a 700 page document,what can I do I?
I wonder if Mac office 2011 and Zotero are working well to gether or is it less trouble to use mac office 2008.
Thanks

Today I merged a libriary from an old MAC to the one on this present MAC by snycing first the Zotero Libriary on the old mac, and then the libriary on the new mac. I have not been able to cite using Zotero since then. Word simply freezes when I klick on any Zotero command. I can still access other macros in Word.
Most (nearly 600) items in the Zotero Libriary were not indexed. 4 Items are indexed. I cannot index these items by pressing Index. If I do that, nothing happens.
Any help would be most welcome!
hjhoffmann62, migrating a library shouldn't cause problems with Word integration on its own. Did you move/migrate anything else?
FloJo, another Application that has been stable on my Macs for years now, also stalled yesterday.
hjhoffmann62, with Firefox running, can you open /Applications/Utilities/Terminal, and copy and paste the following there:
ls -la ~/.zotero* /Users/Shared/.zotero*
Then press return, copy and paste the text that appears below, and post it here.

hjhoffmann62, assuming you have administrator access to your computer, try closing Firefox and pasting the following into the terminal:
rm -f ~/.zotero* /Users/Shared/.zotero*
Then open Firefox. If things still don't work, provide the output for the command from my earlier post again, and provide a report ID.
now its either giving me the word "citation" between brackets or nothing happens! and the document is now 83 pages!
