Be sure that you have clicked the add bibliography button. That is the way to have the bibliography inserted (where you placed your cursor. If this wasn't the cause of your problem you will need to better describe it so that the real experts can hel…

A thought to consider: I find that the completeness and accuracy of the metadata can differ across those databases. Although considerable effort is required, merging the duplicates and selecting the best version of each will produce an excellent r…

About a year ago at a library convention I met with the metadata tech people of a few publishers. One of them was from Wiley and there happened to be someone who was connected with the Cochrane material. I brought an iPad and demonstrated the proble…

Have you altered the style that you obtained from the repository? The comments that accompany the repository style state: "This style just partly implemented what the Chinese GB/T 7714-2005 requires."

Please know that you can select several items at once and then drag all to a collection with one motion.

Re: DOIs & manuscript submission -- ScholarOne (and another manuscript management service the name of which I can't remember) use the DOI to facilitate linking cited material so that reviewers may easily go to the source. Some publishers use th…

Follow the instructions on this page. You will need to use the exact items on that page formatted in the desired style. Examples from the journal publisher or from your own library are not sufficient. https://github.com/citation-style-language/styl…

I'm not a developer and this will not answer all of your questions. For things that are in your Zotero library, how did they get there? You can follow the same steps to add the desired but missing items. If you know the exact title, place it within…

You will need to rephrase your question to provide more information. Are you trying to download the Zotero Stand-Alone? Are you using Zotero within Firefox? Are you asking about how to download metadata for journal articles and books? To get star…

@zuphilip While I'm not a cataloger, I try to actively follow cataloging issues as they are relevant to data standards. There are utilities within several library automation software packages that 1) will help with the crosswalk from one cataloging…

@CadiMoy I'm puzzled by your comment concerning "four databases of searches". I am guessing that you might mean that you downloaded records from 4 different online bibliographic databases and you imported each into its own collection. As adamsmith …
-
BibTeX, Endnote (xls), and RIS should work. How are you going about importing? Maybe there is something amiss about the structure of the RefBase export file. It could help the experts here if you would copy two records from the exported file and p…

You must better describe your situation before the usual experts can help you solve your problem. Please provide the details of what you were doing that led to the "crash" and exactly what you mean by "crash" (Does Word freeze? Does Word fail and t…

This might be related to a problem I often have with BioMed Central abstracts directly or via PubMed. Their metadata does something strange with non- breaking spaces. The result is no space at all. This problem sometimes happens with titles and abst…

I have _always_ had this problem, not with abstracts downloaded along with metadata from publishers or databases such as PubMed, but with abstract text that I hand enter. I need to enter 3 returns so that, upon export, there is a single blank line b…

There is an advantage to getting JAMA metadata from PubMed. That way you also get the PMID. Fortunately, the metadata from JAMA journals is available within hours of the articles availability on the JAMA site(s). It will be necessary to fetch PDFs f…

If you are in the USA and are concerned with HIPA act issues the hospital library or research center's use of Zotero for bibliographic materials will not be a concern. Sensitive patient records should be on computers with encryption that are not con…

The use of dx was a technical thing that concerned web server management: dx.doi.org being a sub-domain of the doi.org domain. They no longer need the sub-domain to accomplish the needed control. At the time that the APA guideline was released the d…

Zotero preferences / search tab / click the button "check for installer"

I have accomplished this by syncing my Mac library to the Zotero online; then, installing Zotero on the Win machine (with no direct attempt to transfer the library). Finally, log into your online Zotero account from your Win machine and sync. If you…

Zotero is exactly consistent in showing references according to the style that was selected. That appears to be the basis of your difficulty As I understand your problem, you want to use a Chicago-like style but with a non-standard way of displayin…

Thanks. That would explain the problem. Do you require a debug? That will need to wait until tomorrow afternoon.

However, in this case: http://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanpsy/article/PIIS2215-0366(14)00129-1/abstract Although the correct DOI is on the page in the form of a link, only one item is included and it is not the DOI associated with the article in…

If you were using Time Machine you you can easily restore everything or selected files.

In my experience, non-English journals' bibliographies seem to sort titles that begin with numbers at the top. English language journals number-first titles can be found either place depending on the journal and professional specialty. Medicine and …

At least in the US, the only cases I know of people receiving lower grades because of formatting errors in citation styles are APA. I can attest to that from the anger fumed or tears shed by students who attended my how not to plagiarize and how to…

Aruimas: Not following the rule when submitting a paper to a professor or a manuscript to a journal could carry consequences with a detail oriented professor or reviewer. This absurd rule must be changed.
-
Aurimas has it right but I suspect that it will take many letters of complaint. Some time ago, I sent an actual snail mail letter with CCs to APA officers and section leaders. I included several arguments in favor of including the issue number. Amon…

Allow me to ask a couple of questions. Do you want to remove the citations before or after you have issued the command to strip out the Zotero codes (after clicking the right-most Zotero toolbar icon)? More importantly, please say why you want to…
