SOLVED. Yep, seems that as it was coming from a library created using the Firefox extension, not the standalone, the dupes were created on import. When I uninstalled the standalone, installed the Firefox extension and tried again, fine. No dupe…

Nice to know. Guess you've no idea when? Kinda desperate over this one (uni and need these refs on this machine and usable pronto!). Will try the regular way and copy the whole shebang then delete ones I don't need. See if that kills the dupes…

Hmm. Thanks for that adamsmith. Not trying to import the whole library though, just one sub-collection (right click sub-collection> Export> Zotero.RDF). Guess a clumsy workaround could be to copy the whole library (which is huge and don'…

An update on that. When I open a document the icons are at the very beginning of the top toolbar where they usually aren't. I didn't even look there. When I go to View>Toolbars and switch Zotero off and on again they appear at the other end! …

Adam, I think it's related to this: http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/5524/cut-and-paste-work-but-copy-and-paste-doesnt/ I did copy/paste/move chunks of text with refs and even just the refs quite a bit so my guess is that's it. I just didn't no…

You're reading my mind, Adam. Reference marks? I'll look into it ... Cheers

Thanks for that. It is actually going to take ages as there are about a hundred and forty footnotes over twenty five pages, some with comments added which means I have to reconnect all of them for a refresh, which works for the ones connected but re…
