@hughp3 Thanks for telling me about BDP47. Yours is an excellent suggestion and I may well change my 'xx' codes to 'zxx', although this is still not strictly compliant with the BCP47 recommendations. What I really mean by 'xx' is 'this citation is i…
-
@bwiernik Sorry, the type of tagging you suggest is too cryptic for me; not easy enough to remember.
-
@dstillman Yes you did point to the documentation, which mentions some codes that can be used. I agree with most of what is said there, except that titles should 'usually be in sentence case'. With a mixed-language title, one has to stop all conver…
-
@bwiernik In response to your comment on the original text, I added the first two lines to the text, which put the question and the answer in a nutshell. Hope that helps!
-
... and I did solve it; see the last paragraph starting "Conclusion..."
-
See paragraph 3, the one starting "my problem is"...

@dstillman Thanks for your comprehensive response. I certainly did not want to annoy anyone. As I said, I am a great fan of Zotero and have used it for at least 6 years now, mostly for academic writing. Nevertheless, it seems there are some feature…
-
Great!
-
6. There should be a preference that allows me to tell Zotero to ALWAYS ignore any changes in a citation. This would allow me to remove the all the automarks WORD puts in citations without having to answer 'no' several hundred times when doing the f…
-
Ok, I finally figured out that you did mean the Language field in the database. I also figured out that Zotero does not like the values “originally” or “translated”. On a subsequent run, I also found errors for “undetermined”. I eventually removed a…
-
You mean the language field in the Zotero database? What are the permitted values? I can just make them blank if I can detemine which is at fault. Can you see what the invalid value is?
-
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.
