No, it should not be an intrinsic problem. Are you using the latest version (i.e., what is the minor minor version # of Zotero 2 that you are using)? Do you see any any other features (such as a popup prompting you to save or open the file you are…

I don't really understand why Zotero has a "contributor" role; seems too vague to be of any use.The "vagueness" is, I think, advantageous (just as a better strong, base "Document" type should be). Contributor seems to be fine for keeping track of i…

I don't think it should be zotero's job to set file permissions for you. Fix your umask.

Appending '#page=NN' (where NN is the page number) will work for some browser plugins, including Adobe's. I assume it won't work for all of them & it won't work for the manual execution of most programs (which is not how Zotero uses PDFs anyway…

Any reason not to just link to those files, rather than to store copies of them in Zotero?

You would need to enable recursive collections, so that parent collections would list the contents of child collections: http://www.zotero.org/support/hidden_prefs

I meant that you should search for '"the"' i.e., with the quotes to use the "advanced quick (phrase-based)" search. '"hot dog"' (with the quotes) will perform a phrase-search through PDFs as well, but it may not lead to successful results due to th…

Phrase search should work for PDFs that have been indexed. Have you tried for something simple (like "the")? Note that the text content of some PDFs is surprising: some have poor OCR or strange white space or use characters that you would not norm…

Note also that page 635 shows the author-date CSE style that has cypher32's proposed placement of the date, but it is the full date ("1992 Nov 13"). Omitting the month/day is said to be "optional" if the journals are continuously paginated. Becaus…

There is a searchable preview on amazon. On page 634, it says journal articles should look like: Authors. Article title. Journal title year month;volume(issue):inclusive pages. So: the style is correct & cypher3c is mistaken. Note that CSE ha…

In Zotero, under 'My Library' is 'Trash'. Right-click on this & select 'Empty Trash'.

Zotero's RIS importer currently requires EP to follow SP, but CiteULike's data has EP before SP. CUL's data probably could be improved, but Zotero's RIS translator should be fixed. A comment in the RIS translator source implies that this is to supp…

Either convert the references to use the same reference manager (which you will need to do manually) or add 31 dummy references to the last section, finish writing the paper, flatten it, and remove the dummy references.

Are the notes and/or tags present in the exported Refer-formatted file? If so, how do they appear in that file? If not, the first thing you would have to do would be to modify the exporter for Citation (and would have to refer to their support for…

To be pedantic & to try to clarify my points: "In press" means different things to different entites. It usually does not have the literal meaning of being printed at that very moment. According to Chicago (and the CSE), "in press" means that…

Do you agree that "type/genre" is inappropriate? I don't think you can draw the line so solidly. If you've been invited to submit a paper somewhere, surely that somewhere is a container & it is worth keeping track of (despite you not actually …

@adamsmith: I disagree. Why should the resource type for 1-3 be "manuscript" & change to "journal article" (or whatever) for 4 and 5 and the actual, printed article? Also, 'type' is mapped to CSL's genre. This is not the proper place for publ…

[The APA] however suggest the ever elegant "Manuscript submitted for publication" or "Manuscript in preparation" in later individual examples. (p. 211)Because a style guide that popular gives specific examples & because we have at least one spec…

Attached files are not synced to personal library, but they are to group library. (website)This is wrong; in your zotero preferences, enable file syncing using the 'Zotero' protocol. http://www.zotero.org/support/file_sync

A patent number assigned to an interview would, I think, confuse most other users. Perhaps it would make sense (in some convoluted way) to a person who added it (well, it was an interview about this patent....) If you can structure an argument for…

Firefox's undo feature works for all text edits in Zotero while the editor is still selected (Edit->Undo or Ctrl-Z). To a limited extent, this may work even if you must re-select the note. It does not remember a very long undo history (e.g. it …
