This happened to me. I thought to myself that it couldn't be a hardware problem, the computer is almost new. I called Apple Care, they ran tests online and it was a hardware problem. A warranty issue. The computer now works after repair. The only n…

@adamsmith Is there other (perhaps, LaTeX) software that allows (even numeric-style) citations in tables? I gather from your other posts that you use other document preparation software. Several Many years ago we handled this by importing a finishe…

Citations within tables are problematic in each word processor I've used (MS Word, Libre Office, Google Docs). This problem exists whether using Zotero or similar software (EndNote, Mendeley). The problem is that the character-length of the zotero…

edit: I apologize for not saying this more artfully but what you ask is not a straightforward question with a binary choice. These questions must be answered: Is the "book" a distinct published item with its own metadata from the complete "conf…

The problem url is (separated to avoid linking) https:// zotero-standalone. en.lo4d .com I sent a screen shot of the error message to support@zotero.org. edit: I am absolutely certain that I entered zotero.org into the Safari URL field expectin…

I have an observation that may or may not be relevant. I almost exclusively use Firefox. Two days ago I opened Safari for the first time in forever. I didn't have zotero bookmarked. I entered "Zotero.org" in the URL field and received a list from Go…

The best way to bring items into Zotero is to browse to the article or chapter on the publisher's website and click the import icon. If your institution has a subscription you will import both the metadata and the PDF. If you have a DOI number, you …

I have a Remarkable 2 tablet and use it at conferences when the proceedings are semi-compatible. You and others have Zotero's attention (and then some). You also have the attention of people who create Zotero plugins. The issue is likely getting th…

Where does it say "it is broken"? What Operating system? What did you do to get the Connector? What version of Zotero and Firefox? Did you try first restarting Firefox, Zotero, etc.? Could you be not seeing the Zotero import icon in your browser ba…

For collections I want sorted to the top, I prefect the collection name with an exclamation mark (!). I have one collection that I want sorted above all else and a preface the name with 2 marks !!.

Collapse is the way to meet my needs. Thank you.

Here is a movie of the disappearing abstract text problem. Standard view or stacked view. 7.0.0-beta.58+2665090aa I copy text to the abstract field, immediately click to open/edit a different record, click back to the record in which I pasted the t…

@migugg "close to this" might be right. When EndNote was new and only a Mac program by Niles, this was sort-of possible but it handled conditional punctuation very badly when bibliographic elements were missing or themselves contained punctuation .…

@salvodif If you are saying "it's very easy" and that adamsmith is complaining, it is possible that you are not clearly stating your request. Provide a very specific step-by-step example , in words, what you want to see on the screen and how the sc…

For example: I import a record from PubMed. It doesn't have an abstract (or has an incomplete abstract) [I visit the publisher site to view the article there] I edit the imported Zotero record by adding text from the publisher's site to the abstra…

Personal example from a user since early 2007. Since the very beginning, I had been copying the DOI and pasting it into a browser window or double-clicking the title from the stacked-view list to go to the journal article at a publisher's website (w…

@adamsmith (This is a question not a criticism.) What about the case when most of the citations are to sources in a langu other than English? My users are mostly from small government agencies and NGOs that cannot afford the costs of subscriptions t…

No one said that. Seek help at: https://juris-m.github.io/# Juris-M is a different project and definitive help is not available here.

Juris-M is based on an earlier version of Zotero. The Zotero development team, if involved at all in Juris-M development, seems to only involved in technical assistance to allow continued syncing to the Zotero site. The lead developer of multi-lin…

It might be that someone could help you if you provide specific examples. If you Google the book, you can usually get a book's ISBN (and ISBNs for several editions). Entering the ISBN into Zotero's Magic Wand field is likely to capture the metadata…

Are the hymn lyrics published in a hymnal or other book? Maybe use Book Section to enter the composer and lyricist you could also include the compilation editor. I don't know offhand the Chicago style guidance for labeling composer and lyricist. You…

If you try LibreOffice you will be amazed and quite pleased. We are a Mac shop and LO is a perfect replacement -- especially because it works so well with Zotero.

The built-in notes capabilities of Zotero 7 are quite impressive. If you aren't totally dependent on plugins like Zutillo that aren't Z7 compatible; I personally recommend going to Zotero 7. I've been using 7 for months and find it as or more stable…

Exactly how to do this depends on the version of Word you are using. The font size of text in your bibliography is controlled within Word by the style setting for that part of your document. (Not by Zotero.) If you need guidance look to Word help f…

2010 version is quite old. Zotero works quite well with the _free_ LibreOffice writer program. You can import your MS Word documents but will almost certainly need to re-do your Zotero citations. My workplace actually prefers LibreOffice (but we u…

To further pile-on negatives about WorldCat: It is a "union catalog" that is the (not-very-merged) contents of tens of thousands of individual library catalogs. The quality of the data entry to each of these individual library catalogs varies from n…

You are correct, this was a LibreOffice bug that has (finally) been fixed. Ask your tech folks up update LibreOffice.

Writing a doctoral thesis is among the most stressful events in one's life. Take a breath and provide more specific details about your problem. I have used reference management software since the early 1980s (even before MS DOS and Windows existed)…
