Hello Michael, not being on Github, I chose this forum to ask two requests for implementation: (a) When searching for a title/author/tag etc. the seach starts immediately when typing the first letter. Especially on older software (tablets) this mea…

Hello Michael, I also just wanted to give you kudos for developing the Zoo-tero app. I've tried several Android apps before but yours is by far the best: stable sync, good performance, and --something many other apps couldn't do before -- syncing of…

Hello, I haven't had to bulk edit with the new Zotero-version, which supports only stand-alone. Thus, I can only tell you that with prior editions you indeed installed the add-on you referred to and followed the instructions linked to by adamsmith …

Ah, alright, that did the trick. Thanks a million for the quick reply and help. This also covers another problem I had, namely inserting page numbers that have a hyphen. Sometimes, eg. in books that reproduce art, page 10 actually consists of two p…
-
Nevermind, already tried it, and it worked like a charm. Thanks for the help!
-
Thanks for your quick reply. Does that also work when I'm using the standalone version of Zotero (I also have Zotero installed as a Firefox add-on, sharing the same database, I guess, and acting as a data miner only)?
-
Thanks Adam, Seems our posts crossed their paths. I was just sending mine when yours appeared. As said, it now works after re-installation of the add-in. Thanks again for your help, and for a great piece of software! So long!

Just a quick update here: After re-installing the LibreOffice-addin under Zotero, the situation has changed somewhat: When I enter the page number now, it is deleted from the "Quick Format Citation"-window (I enter the number but it vanish…
-
Okay, thanks for the quick reply. I'll try to be as precise as possible. My situation: I want to quote from an article/book with a precise page number, say: Benedict Anderson, Imagined Communities 29 (ie. page 29 from the book). Here's what I do and…

You're right! Me and my selective reading habits...
-
Aaaaah! Great! That's indeed exactly what I wanted! Thanks a million! Never thought about that because the initial list (when creating an item) does not have that option. Maybe it would by good to mention that in the "Adding items per hand"-secti…

Well, it gets even a bit more complicated: I'm using Linux, which only offers Opera up to version 12.16. The connector needs version 16+, which is Windows-only, unfortunately. No luck, I guess... You're right, I can (and do) store websites away un…
-
Thanks, but I'm using the standalone version and the Opera-browser, and under Opera I do not have (or do not find) the right-click save option. Maybe I'm being blind?
-
As another acquaintance has come across the same issue here (after I recommended Zotero), I'd like to resurrect this thread and enquire if there is anything on the horizon concerning easy Citavi-to-Zotero-migration. Anything, anyone?
-
Actually, for me it is more of a nuisance than a real bummer, as I usually introduce data via ISBN and the wand icon. But, of course, it would have been great if that were easy to fix. If that is not the case, no worries. Maybe the problem is even…

Confirmed, both with Zotero SA opened and closed, there is no import. And I really checked my library! The bookmarklet appears empty for five or so seconds, than vanishes, and that's it. What happened with the amazon site was that it forwarded me …
-
I tried on several pages, on library sites, on webpages etc. None worked. And yes, I always had Zotero Standalone open.
-
Thanks again; I'll go for that suggestion.
-
It is buggering me enough to give it a try; just one more question here: I'm using the standalone version, and do not have firefox. That means that I need another Javascript editor, doesn't it? Can I use whichever I want?
-
Too bad, that is something I'd definitively like in a future version. Another thought here: Can't I find that somewhere in the database and modify it manually? Thanks for the quick reply, though.
-
That would be really great. Thanks already for taking this into consideration.
-
You are right about both Citavi support (they are friendly and helpful) and about the slippery slope of nevertheless ending up being a "hostage" of their product. From what I have gathered, Citavi is basically two programmes rolled into one: A bi…
-
Thank you for the quick reply again, although, of course, that definitively brings my import ambitions to a dead halt. And I doubt that Citavi (being a for-profit-company) is interested in telling me how to get away from their programme. If anyone…
-
Following up on this one: Citavi support told me that I could re-name the .ctv-file (that contains all the data of a project) into .mdb and then simply open it with MS-Access. That worked indeed, but now I'm stuck: I do see all the data, but ever…
-
Wow, this is indeed immediate feedback, thank you very much! Well, I use Citavi Version 2.5 and that one supports exports into BibTeX, RIS, Endnote and Endnote Tagged Import Format. I tried all three with the same result: no quotations were expo…
