Not via Zotero yet (PDFs are handled by various browser plugins, so Zotero can't directly access them). You could, of course, use third-party PDF annotation software on PDFs kept within your Zotero collection. See also:

SQLite only allows a single program to access it. The firefox plugin won't allow concurrent access for a VERY long time. Otherwise, you should read what has been said about synchronization. There will be a central zotero server (?this year?). Th…

We don't recommend using import/export to move your Zotero library to another computer—just make a copy of the Zotero data directory.Does this work perfectly across platforms? I've done it, but I don't routinely do it & I haven't tried lately. …

Yes--firefox can become unresponsive when importing. That doesn't mean anything crashed & you probably killed it about 1/3 of the way through the import. Have a bit more patience when importing larger files. For very large files, some have ha…

Backup now so that you can undo anything that you will do. I'm not aware of a "simple undeletion." However, if it isn't urgent, you might wait a bit to see if anyone posts details. Don't make any changes (adding/modifying/deleting records) i…

You can also refer to: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_reference_management_software Zotero can translate the major centrally managed tools (Connotea + CiteULike) & refbase. It seems it doesn't yet do BibSonomy. Zotero can't …

rickla commented on (4) & it is what I use too: I use (and help to develop) refbase, which is a free/open source webapp. It supports UnAPI+MODS XML, which zotero can "translate." While I've played a bit with a firefox extension to make all re…

Zotero, by contrast, seems to treat a note as an attribute of a bibliog-item. One can manipulate bibliog items through searches, sorts, etc., but notes remain slaved to bibliog items."Standalone" notes are quite possible in Zotero! And you can reas…

Simply backup your zotero data directory (which is in your firefox profile directory by default). There are a wealth of apps that can do this, and some are listed in past discussions on backup.

The developer documentation describes how to create styles and where to submit them to:

Zotero can already scrape PubMed. (And PubMed already has search plugins for Firefox, RSS search feeds, etc.) I agree that the benefit of having an in-Zotero search would be fairly small, but I personally wouldn't be opposed to having a univer…

Oftentimes, import will just take a while. If it appears to freeze (and you get no errors), just have some patience & wait. For large libraries or slow computers, you may have to wait overnight. Please also list any errors you encountered…

But portable FF is Windows only, right?You can get a portable version for OS X. There was even an edition which included both OS X and win32 binaries & shared as much of the profile as possible. I don't know if this edition is still being main…
-
For small numbers of records, import/export works O.K. There are also discussions on various strategies to sync the database. You can: (1)sync the zotero data directory with third party tools (2)put the zotero data directory on a netwo…

@Tom, Zotero does have some preliminary support for embedded RDF. The developers are also participating in the development of bibliographic ontologies and microformat. There's no way in hell anyone sane is going to sit down and add all this stuff,…

The easiest way is to just install and use portable firefox from the USB drive. You won't need to do anything special to install or use Zotero.
-
It isn't readily fixable. SeaMonkey does not yet have the SQLite database that Zotero needs & also requires installation scripts in extensions. There are plans to eventually "toolkitize" SM & this will go a long way to making firefox ext…

The FAQ's answer still applies:
-
PDFs and webpage snapshots are already searchable. However, GDS doesn't (by default) index the application data directory that default firefox profiles (and so the default zotero db) are stored in. If you move the database, GDS will start to index…

That isn't an RIS format. It is some kind of citation style. RIS looks like:

Can you please clarify your post? Link to an example recordsay what gets imported into Zotero (it sounds like everything does)clarify how you're exporting to Endnote (presumably Endnote/Refer/Bibix export?)paste an example of the exported file forma…

When you last asked this, I suggested you look into using unAPI for this. That is still my suggestion. Support for Dublin Core in COinS in Zotero exists, but it is somewhat rudimentary (but, in supporting DC at all, they are well ahead of the curv…

While the drag-and-drop interface enhancements are certainly nice, I don't think it is as good as an automatic import. This isn't only hugely useful when you import a large number of references (as it sounds like Bernhard has done), but the small t…

That the remote storage location is gmail doesn't change what has previously been discussed about remote storage of the Zotero database. Yes, there are programs that allow you to use gmail as a filesystem. And, because Zotero allows you to specify…

Not directly. Biblioscape (proprietary and commercial) can import the tagged format. Bibutils and/or refbase (both free/open source) might be interested in writing an importer for it, but I'm not aware of any free software that has one already. …

lynnrich: read Dan's comments. Zotero looks for metadata that it can harvest (whether this is embedded in the page, linked to from the page, or can be found in a predictable location (based on what webapp is being used as the catalog)). It…

Keep in mind that I don't speak for the Zotero devs (and neither does Bruce), but:Apparently, it is clear what I need and the disagreement is about the legitimacy of the need (i.e., why I need it).I suppose I'd agree with this--I don't see how "Rela…
