I guess an alternative is to go back to the previous offical version and work around the index tag issue until the next offical release?
-
How do I correct them manually?
-
the basic problem, that automarking interferes with Zotero refresh, seems to be fixed in the 5.0.89-beta version though I still have a problem that it produces an error message after the refresh is complete. I would still like to see a confirmation…
-
I tried the beta version 89 on my whole document (241 pages, 350 citations, 717 index entries) and found that I am now able to refresh AFTER creating an index – in other words while all the index entries are in place. The problem seems to be fixed .…
-
Yes, there are several reasons to run indexing as the last step, and it is anyway wise to delete all entries before running automark. I have set up my document to use automark only. But yes, having the index fields present should not cause an erro…
-
Good news! The index entries seem to be the main problem. I did not know any were there, but it appears I inadvertently pasted in some old entries from another file. FYI, all index entries in a document can be removed as follows (after backing up …
-
1. I am using *MHRA 3* style, which is a standard in Zotero. 2. The index entries are added automatically, using a concordance file, so I do not have control of where they are. I will however try removing them all by search-and-replace. 3. There …
-
I sent you the portion of the text that seems to reliably display the fault. Further halving produced ambiguous results.
-
It would still be very helpful if Zotero identified the citation at which the fault is found.
-
I reluctantly followed your advice, but did not solve the problem. For the other readers, I want to make clear how tedious step 10 is … Since I do daily refreshes I was able to narrow my search by selecting the chapter I had last been working on, …
-
'Periodically refreshing' is precisely what I meant by doing it every day - I do it to check it still works and to correctly complete the references. There is nothing special about the bibliography, it is just the one that is automatically generated…
-
Done
-
I created a minimal file as you suggested, and was able to reproduce the fault with Report ID: 140866632. However, I do not know how to upload a file to the forum (and Google just gives me references about uploading library documents)? How about ema…
-
I agree. I am using Zotero for a document with several hundred citations, so it can take a few minutes to refresh and there is no way of knowing when it's done. There should be 1. a progress bar 2. a lockdown on changing the document while refresh…
-
Thanks for re-organising the thread. I did not know my problem was caused by a virus when I first reported it. I did as you advised and it seems to have fixed the problem -- I can now do a (manual) sync without getting the virus notification. Than…
-
Ah! I just noticed that the incidence of this error coincides with a notification from my virus protection package (Sophos) that it has blocked a threat from 'Mal/DrodZp-A'. Apparently a Zotero file has got a virus in it and the virus protection is …
-
I also have a synchronisation error. I don't know what it is. I just get an exclamation mark next to the synchronisation icon (top right). When I click on it, there is no error message, just the option to send a report... Report ID 700773506

I confirm that Zotero 5.0.62 is working for me with Mac OSX Mojave 10.14.3 (the current version)
-
I also had this problem with Mojave 10.14.3 and Zotero 5.0.61. I fixed it by reverting to Zotero 5.0.60.
-
I reverted to version 5.0.60 for Mac, as you suggested, and confirm that this version works normally. Thanks! I can work again. :-) Do I have to do anything to stop an automatic update to 5.0.61? (There does not seem to be an auto-update option). F…
-
I tried restarting Zotero to do the test with sync off, but when starting normally, it was immediately unresponsive, so I could not do anything. I tried again starting through Terminal. Though slow, there was some response so I tried turning off au…
-
Yes, after restarting Zotero normally, I am also getting 106% CPU usage!
-
@dstillmann. Thanks for looking at it so quickly! Before reading your post, I did reproduce the hanging situation, albeit with sync still turned on. Can you see something useful in the last few minutes of log file 2?
-
OK. I am running the command-line debug now. It seems to be running indefinitely and repeating the similar output over and over, like it is in a loop, or perhaps spending a minute on each item in the library? Unless I break it off, I will have to le…
-
Yes, I have the same problem. It recently got slower and slower, and has now become unusable. I can start Zotero, but if I try to add a book (or anything) it hangs up before I finish - which is to say it stops responding to any key or mouse clicks a…
-
I had a similar experience with RIS. I tried exporting RIS from ZOTERO, then importing the same file. Zotero said "File is not in a supported format" !! I tried your clipboard trick and that worked OK. So is this a ZOTERO bug? It cannot import its…
-
I am using Zotero for my 100,000 word PhD thesis (in the History of Art) together with Microsoft WORD (latest edition). I echo the thanks for an invaluable piece of software, but have the same concern that there is no progress indicator when Zotero…
-
This used to work for me. I use an Apple Mac with Zotero standalone and Preview to view and annotate PDF files, which are saved as copies within Zotero. However, since only recently, when I go to save an annotated PDF it says it cannot save it. Appa…
-
On finding out which files are not indexed: Indexing is a great feature, so first: thanks Zotero for thinking of it. However, it would be even better if it worked all the time. In my case I have 1643 indexed files and 422 unindexed. Reindex…

Re OCR for PDF files: I always use Apple's PDFScanner. http://www.pdfscannerapp.com It's the best £10.99 I spent on an app! Scanning is just one thing it does. You can also import PDFs to process then; combine more than one PDF into a single do…
