You just got a confusing start. Well over a million (actually probably several millions of) people use Zotero "like any other software" application. In no more than an hour you can become familiar --even proficient -- in Zotero's importing referen…

Allow me to further endorse LibreOffice as the preferred writing software for Mac. It is free (open access) and has existed for over a decade. It is the next generation of OpenOffice. It is faster than MS Word for Mac and is equally powerful. You co…

I can print from Zotero but I open the pdf format file first and print from the viewer in my OS.

The Zotero UI of version 7 beta is quite similar to version 6. That said, I came to Zotero from EndNote and I've come to love the Zotero "stacked view" interface version. I find this UI much more easy to work with swiftly than the way that EndNote w…

Zotero searches several resources to identify a book by its ISBN. However some publishers register ISBNs with registrars that do not make their listings available to software such as Zotero. If the registrar doesn't have a suitable API and some othe…

What word processor are you using? I presume you mean that you want a line-feed (or 2) between each reference. For most word processors this is managed not by Zotero but in the word processor itself under styles. If you say which word processor an…

This occurs only after I have restarted my computer after a new Mac OS update AND upon the first opening of Zotero after an update to the beta. That said, this has happened at least each time I've had recent Mac OS updates -- at least 3 times and I …

With the hundreds of thousands of Zotero users who are on a Mac, it seems as though this should have been reported by others before now. It has happened to me with each of the past 4 or maybe 5 Mac OS updates. See debug: D422176853 Mac 13.5.1 Ag…

The quality of Zotero's import of WorldCat metadata is really not a Zotero problem because Zotero imports the metadata that is provided by WorldCat. Understand that WorldCat data is provided by libraries that send their catalog metadata to the OCLC…

This is just one man's opinion (based upon how we have done things in the public health field) but I would list Dan Stillman as first author (as he is lead software developer) and Takats as last author indicating that he is the department head.

Zotero has an Item Type for Software [click the green+ icon]. Filling in the fields for that type should produce a proper citation with most styles. What bibliographic style are you required to use? Title: Zotero Programmer: ? see developers lin…

Are you expecting to cite the proposal using a particular style guide? APA, Chicago, MLA? I did a quick glance at these resources but didn't find relevant guidance. There are many things that could be called an "proposal". Are you asking about a r…

Sorry: The translator for this journal gets publisher-provided COinS information that is incorrect. Although the COinS metadata for only some of the articles is correct; the DOI metadata is excellent for all articles.

Manually. The field imports as "EN" and I manually retype it to "en" but when I tab to another field or move to another record the field goes back to "EN". When I change the language field case with other journal article records the field saves pr…

I will the next time there is both a Mac OS update and an update to the Zotero beta. I don't restart Zotero very frequently and this time and the last time the Mendeley error occurred both of those updates had occurred.

Are you entering the ISBN into the Mac Zotero magic wand field? How are you entering into the Zotero web version? If you have the items in the Zotero web version, can you not sync to get the records into your Mac Zotero? What are the ISBNs? To deve…

Is this an in-text problem, a bibliography problem, or both? Save a copy of the document. With a new copy of the document 1) click the Document Preferences (gear-z icon) and select the citation style you want. Then, 2) click the refresh icon (page …

There is a basic question here that may be answered differently depending upon the citation style standard. When I view the pdf of articles where there is a title and subtitle separated with ?:, in almost every case the colon is not in the printed t…

That will be wonderful.

If implemented, please make this optional. My database doesn't contain personal information nor secret stuff.

I only viewed 3 of them but had to pause to say that (even with using English subtitles) the videos are really wonderful.

Please copy the first few lines (only) of the RIS file and paste that here. There may be something very simple that you can change to make the file properly fit RIS standards. There may be something a bit less simple that you can do.

What style? What word processor? How are you inserting the citation?
-
A 'preprint' from a service such as ArXiv, an ePub ahead-of-print that is a journal article not yet assigned to a volume/issue aren't the same type. In my opinion these shouldn't be merged. The final published version with complete metadata and the …

Don't edit using MS Word use a text editor like NotePad that is built into Windows. If you are using MS Office on a Mac, the TextEdit app comes free with the last several OS versions. This is really simple to do. The only wrinkle is following the…

That DOI violates several of the excluded character rules. Zotero may not recognize these as DOIs. In particular, the use of hexadecimal codes for angle brackets and other symbols is tolerated for only some pre-2008 publications where the DOI was a…

Know that you can move collections ('folders') to the top of the list by prefacing the name with numerals and certain punctuation symbols, such as '!'. 📁 !1-Important stuff 📁 !2-Less important stuff 📁 Anthropology 📁 Biology 📁 Law

Getting what you want from databases is as much art as science. It is a learned skill. To get what you want from a database you need to know the fine points of both what is included and not. You need to know about how index terms are assigned. You n…

"in Zotero, collections behave like tags more than as [file directory] folders." To put it in another way, a single item can be in multiple collections. Are you primarily interested in the bibliometric (number of citations) information that PoP co…

I apologize if my post above was too basic for your needs. Are you asking if Zotero can automatically scan the title and abstract text of your existing records with tags and, from the text-words in each record, automatically add keywords/tags to ne…
