update from the adventures with standalone. for almost a week zotero has been running without giving problems, until this morning, when z5 required to restart. @zotero devs, could you please check if this is a serious issue, i send the report wit…
-
right. fingers crossed z4 for firefox will survive until the functionality becomes available in z5. it's quite a handy option to be able to quickly pool infos/research together around an object. thanks for your support.
-
also, is there any way to get the functionality 'Attach Snapshot of Page' in z5? as i often attach snap shots, of secondary research, to the main object (basically by right-clicking the main object). when right-clicking an object in z5 i only get…

@LiborA, thanks, that worked. as i'm on a linux system it would be nice if this works in the repos. i found the following: https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/linux_packaging. is this ppa up-to-date? as in can i install zotero from this repo & it'…

thank you for your quick reply. just confirming if i understand everything correctly. if i would create first a z4 standalone version using the data of the copy of the zotero folder, then i could simply upgrade this z4 standalone version to z5, by …

@bwiernik, thank you for clarifying. guess i will have to start synching as well. i feel so old school. so if i create two databases, one for 5 & one 4, & sync, i should be fine? can i simply copy the whole folder of 4 & use the copy fo…

right, thank you for the zotero firefox plugin for as long as it lasted. it is unfortunate that mozilla got swallowed up by google, & that defacto floss in the browser nowadays means chrome & absolute surveillance. so yes, moving standalon…

thank you for your reply. i'm using 4.0.25.1 (on firefox/debian linux). i upgraded now to the latest version 4.0.25.2, but unfortunately still have the same is issue for either 'year in author field' and error on update button. anything else i can t…

hi there, i ran into the same issue. when trying to import from amazon i get the year in the author field instead of the author (also with the above example). one of my examples: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/0816679002?psc=1&redirect=tru…

solved the problem from my side. seems like when i did the upgrade the hfsplus tools got de-installed -> so the external hd was a 'read only' filesystem (as it is a hfs+ disk). anyway after installing hfsplus tools & rebooting first into the …

adam, thank you for replying, but problem is that when trying to re-import i get the error msg 'The selected file is not a supported format' & as stated above the only hints i found for a possible solution were these: http://forums.zotero…

ok. i made a backup & installed the open office trunk: it is still slower than 2.0! first attempt a minute, second reference 90 seconds, then quicker about 30 seconds for each reference. nevertheless what is the bigger problem here is that…

fbenett, because i'm about to finish my work over the next 3 month & i would not really like to corrupt the document. on the trunk page http://www.zotero.org/support/dev/svn_and_trac_access#word_processor_plugins it says: "While these developmen…

simon, i just tried the older openoffice plugin as you suggested. no luck there either. referencing in open office is still very slow. what is more worrying though: additionally it adds random characters to my references. so it is unusable. i c…

after 8 hours of hacking around downgrade is successful. please keep us (those with not so posh machines) updated when 2.1. (or 2.2.) is available with optimization...

what a pain: here's the procedure for downgrading http://www.zotero.org/support/zotero_data - read paragraph 'Restoring from the last upgrade backup'

well i found this http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/17269/where-to-find-20-to-download/ problem is of course that the database is not compatible anymore with 2.0 - this upgrade business is a real trap for ppl with slow computers - zotero shou…

in the meantime is there any way to return to 2.0?

same issues here. running on an ibm think pad t43. before all the new updates happened zotero was reasonable quick. now it is very slow, up to two minutes, and sometime nothing happens at all. as i'm working with important data i can not risk using …
