Long ago I made this mistake. So, for others who may read this thread, I may save you a moment of frustration. Within the document, you will need to place the cursor where you want the bib to appear and click. After this first time, as adamsmith sai…

The Zotero Standalone or the Firefox add-on do not limit you to 10 items at a time. You can select My Library to display all of your records. Do a select all, then follow the instructions above. You cannot do this one-or-two-step procedure when you …

I've forgotten the journal publisher but one suggests "ePub ahead of print".

You can selectively restore any file, directory or all files. Easy to do-- even wnen half asleep and frustrated.

Time machine should allow you to recover _everything_ programs and all _automatically_. It is even more simple than following the directions above.

The Monitoring the Future group publishes Books, Technical Reports, Journal Articles, and several other publication types that are essentially Reports (monographs, occasional papers, progress reports, white papers, etc.). The group's Congressional T…

Be aware that the USGS, the US DHHS, the Department of Justice, the Department of Transportation, and other US federal agencies have report series publications that from the agencies' point of view are treated as serials -- thus, the ISSN. If need …

There is an open access project based at the Bond University Center for Research in Evidence-Based Practice (CREBP) with the aim of drastically reducing the time to construct a Systematic Review. http://crebp-sra.com One of the key parts of this ef…

Unless you are within an organization that requires the FF ESR version, your FF is old. The current version is 35.

david.denkenberger There are several "flavors" of Vancouver style -- straight brackets, curved brackets, superscript, etc. Nonetheless, you should recognize the cautions about submitting your manuscript to this and similar publishers. An article in…

The SPG is one of those publishers that are quick to solicit manuscripts but that do not provide much information about the requirements for manuscript preparation. Nor does SPG provide the details of the peer review process. I could not find an ins…

The current version of Firefox is 35. The extended support version (for institutions with tight IT controls) is 31esr.

The way that Dropbox handles, compresses, and stores files is not suitable for database files usd by Zotero and any other database software. Similarly, you shouldn't keep your Zotro folder on a network drive. A database works by manipulating several…

Until this gets worked out you can get the JSTOR article _citation_ metadata by going to the table of contents for the issue that contains the article. From the ToC, find the "citation tools" then click the export link. This will take you to another…

I think that this is a larger issue than translator / Zotero version compatibility. I wish that there was a quick and painless way to know the current Zotero version. As suggested in the thread Rintze showed us; I visit the troubleshooting page. …

Perhapse, this up-to-date confusion could be partially resolved if the top sticky forum message read: "[Sticky] Current Zotero FF 4.0 .24.1 Standalone 4.0.nn" (as I write this I'm unsure of the current SA version). The message title would be chang…

You should look at one of the author-date styles. There are many -- APA, etc. See: https://www.zotero.org/support/styles for guidance.

This doesn't answer your question but I have a question or two of my own. Where does the ASA expect you to find that information? It is often difficult to identify any single specific place of origin for a web page. Your linked document didn't prov…

The ability to copy and paste is common to all modern operating systems. Perhaps, this "clipboard" term is not what you use if your 1st language is not English. When you select and copy text, it goes to the clipboard so that you may paste what you c…

I recommend that you use Google Scholar to identify relevant articles but that you click through to the publishers' sites to download metadata into Zotero. More often, the metadata from GoogleScholar is incomplete or even completely wrong. GS links …

For the past 4 days the ScienceDirect site itself has been intermittently having problems. I think that the issue is a tracking script that times out. A test of the problem outside Zotero found the same issue. Going to a ScienceDirect record and att…

A report that "it is all wrong" doesn't help resolve your problem. See: "https://www.zotero.org/support/styles" and be very specific when reporting problems. Someone will be better able to help.

Please give more details about "crashes". Do you mean that Yosemite actually crashes with error messages and a required restart? I'm guessing that you are using Zotero standalone. Could it be that he program is simply taking a _really_ long time to …

Re SSD -- no noticeable difference We have 2 otherwise identical Mac Pro (not the new model) machines except one of them has a 512 gb SSD instead of a fast 512 Gb HDD. Without going into further details, these are production machines and only have …

I finally received a response from ERIC that wasn't a form letter. It appears that ERIC will not be adding the doi strings to their metadata. Please consider adding doi retrieval to the otherwise very good translator. ERIC wrote: Greetings, The ER…

First initials are used if an author's last name is listed more than once AND there are any differences in how the author names are entered in your Zotero database. Even a slight difference will be treated as though the items are different authors.

As AdamSmith said in the other thread, the term Index Medicus (IM) is out of date. The IM was a printed bibliography that ceased publication more than a decade ago. A more comprehensive bibliography in electronic form (MEDLARS), for all reasonable p…

?? Would it work (after setting to recursive) to select all and create a bibliography not an export?
-
edited for grammar I heard back from T&F concerning the publication dates in the metadata for their articles. (See below.) I do not like their position and I believe that it leads to incorrect metadata. Can Zotero address this problem? I wrote…

Throughout the past 48 hours (or so) NCBI has been doing its annual system update and database structure update to 2015 standrds. There was an earlier update mid-September. While this action takes place there will be brief periods where access is ve…
