I've seen pdf documents where the citation indicator (number or author-date) is a hyperlink to the appropriate item in the reference list. This is actually quite common. I've also seen pdf documents where a click on the reference list item will take…

Let me also ask if this is on a Mac? Since el Capitan, sometimes I cannot successfully drag and drop either into the center column or to the left hand collection "folder". By this I mean dragging the pdf file from the Finder downloads folder to Zote…

See my comments in another thread. https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/56321/newbie-trouble-integrating-with-open-office-on-mac/#Item_24 This should also work for you.

This can be really trying until the right magic is done in the proper sequence. I don't know exactly what to offer but here is what I think worked for me. (I can't be certain it will work for you as I am using LibreOffice 4.4.5.2 and I didn't try w…

Please correct me if my memory is wrong. If this didn't work as I seem to recall, please let me know. When I wrote my (300+ pages , 400+ references) doctoral thesis, I split it up into many smaller sections and later I merged (copy/paste) the secti…

If you double click on each Zotero record you should be taken to the webpage of the item. Once there, if the item is from a publisher or a database, it is a simple click of the Zotero import icon to import the record with metadata. I can attest that…

As the operator of an online bibliographic database that offers metadata by unAPI as well as RIS, BibTeX, and GS/Highwire formats; I can say that (because we serve all bibliographic data from a structured database) it required only a few hours of ef…

Have you tried the Zotero support steps listed here: https://www.zotero.org/support/word_processor_integration

This doesn't help much with RIS imports but: I include the conference place and date as added text in the conference name field. This requires a bit of editing of the final manuscript but all information is present. Are their plans for adding thes…

Are you asking if you can batch change the item _type_ from webpage to journal article? The answer is, no. However, even if you could batch change the type, the volume, issue, page range, etc. would be missing. You would need to capture that metadat…

I thought that this occurs automatically-- I know that this is done automatically on my site. Could you have entered an accented "é"? Québec as a TLD is not accepted on my site but .quebec is accepted.

You _may_ be experiencing expected behavior. Kindly tolerate my presumption that you could be making a very basic mistake about how the Zotero interface works. At the top of the left hand column there is an icon and title for "my library" if you ha…

I am having similar problems on my iPad Using Safari I cannot always get to the "desktop" version of the ScienceDirect site and there doesn't seem to be a translator for the mobile version of the site. There are sites that provide guidance on how…

This is a forum for technical support for users of the Zotero software. Although both Mendeley and Zotero use CSL there are other differences. I recommend contacting the Mendeley tech support folks. Are you asking if the Zotero program can correctl…

Is there any way to refresh...? Short answer is No. Mostly, PMID and PMCID are only available through the National Library of Medicine websites. Some other specialty databases include these IDs but only for items that have them. There are many re…

To do this you should first print a copy of the version that doesn't have a bibliography but has the in-text citations. Second, save as a copy of your original (although flawed) document. You should work with this copy. If this was a numbered styl…

Did alt-F9 make dgibberish appear where the references should be in the text? If not maybe field codes were removed. (Maybe this guess is too obvious.)

What adamsmith says above. Also, if after your initial sync things continue to be slow, there is likely something else that is contributing to your problem. Without more information it is difficult to know what that might be. After the initial sync,…

Using the right click case converter to get to sentence case becomes second nature after only a short time. I find that it often helps to cut phrases that should rmain as titles, make the conversion, and then paste the title case phrase back where i…

Yes. Data loss across files of differing ages is indeed a problem but that isn't the most significant issue. Zotero saves changes almost instantly upon leaving a field. This works well on a local drive. Dropbox can permanently garble the relationsh…

I'm looking for the warning and will post as soon as I find it. I've used Dropbox since its earliest days for regular file sharing and I have no complaints. I know that the company presented a short list of types of files it should not be used for. …

Please note that even Dropbox itself recommends against using it to sync database files across mulitple computers.

For what it is worth: Depending upon the amount of _available_ RAM in a Windows or Mac machine if a csv has more than about 6000 records, many comma seperated fields, especially when some of the fields contain lengthy text; Excel doesn't properly co…

The idea of a universal multidisciplinary, multilingual thesaurus of index terms and corresponding synonyms (Use/Used For) non-preferred terms is an impossible dream. When the idea of hierarchical term placement is added this can become a developme…

I sync Firefox across 3 Macs. I also use Zotero on those machines. The Zotero sync takes care of my Zotero library. The FF synch doesn't touch my Zotero library _contents_ it only affects FF itself. The FF sync is useful in that it makes FF on each …

To expand on what adamsmith said: Ideally each title record should be entered or edited to be in sentence case. When you work on a paper or manuscript you can achieve title case by using the appropriate style. No additional editing (or at most very…

I have intentionally avoided even looking at the Zotero SQL file structure much less looking at the DB tables themselves, so what I say below may not make sense here. With SafetyLit, the journal article table has a field for id numbers of articles…

Unless you import the same item more than one time there should be no duplication. Items can be added to more than one collection or subcollection. If you import an item once into one collection and import it again in _any_ collection or subcollec…

Zotero stores your data on your local hard drive. Your data can also, at no cost, be synced with the servers at Zotero. There is no limit to the number of records you are allowed to store there (except the current version of Zotero doesn't run as…
