Iceweasel version 24.3.0 Zotero iceweasel add-on version 4.0.17 Zotero LibreOffice Integration iceseasel add-on version 3.5.8.SA.4.0.17-2

OK I've played around with it a bit, and the short story seems to be that it works properly when standalone is the running version, and doesn't work when firefox is the running version. It's actually a bit more complicated than that, and the be…

I'm not certain what you mean by 'using' a version of Zotero. Does having firefox running mean that I am in some sense using the firefox version? What if both firefox and standalone are running - does it depend on which one was started first or does…

@adamsmith It's 3.5.8

Sorry but I'm back... reducing to a single profile seems to fix many of the problems and at least make it stable. But I'm still having this window size problem, that is the 'Quick Format Citation' window expands vertically to take more than the enti…

I'm simply pointing out that as a an experienced IT professional but naive Zotero user I managed to fall into a hole that caused me a lot of pain. If it can happen to me it can happen to others. Indeed there is a fair amount of discussion on the for…

@adamsmith Thanks for that. I'll investigate further when I get a chance. More generally - is there any reason why anyone would ever want different data directories for the different Zotero apps? As my experience apparently demonstrates, having…
-
That's not quite my experience - the different available styles persisted even after I'd changed to a single data directory. Perhaps slight version differences causing the list to be stored in different places? I'll try to replicate and document if …

Thanks - that last comment helped me figure out a few things. First, I hadn't realised that zotero standalone and the firefox extension use different data directories. Following advice in various forums, I set them to used the same directory. Then I…

Thanks for the help. The linked page doesn't specify how to make a report ID when the problem appears to relate to word processor integration. Nonetheless I tried the procedure for the standalone version and got the report ID 744081712. Since i…

And another completely new problem: 6. The edit citation window appears, but doesn't recognise any citation that I enter. Another possibly useful piece of information I just realised it that I have a different computer running similar but …
