b) We chose a new local place for the storage of zotero files It sounds like your library may still be at the old location. See Locating your Zotero library and Where did my items go?
-
That would presumably solve this problem and some others (like being able to apply a lot of tags in one go). Neat idea.
-
There is not, and it would be an interesting feature. A not-so-great workaround would be to duplicate the original item.
-
Welcome to Zotero! Indeed, Zotero should be more specific in its error messages here (as discussed previously this long thread). in some of the pdf-file-paths in Endnote, for whatever reason, theres instead of slashes the characters '%5C' in the p…
-
Just for reference, this is explained in the kb: adding an edited volume or book chapter.
-
Rather than a new item type, this sounds as a request to add functionality to Zotero's creator/author fields (for these are the 'persons' that are directly relevant to our bibliographic items). But I don't think this kind of functionality is part of…
-
Frank, see this thread and please add your voice to the request to change the default behaviour, which is confusing not just to you but to many of us.
-
Yet another user mystified by this here; for him too, current behaviour makes the Rename PDF from Parent Item feature look confusing. And there was another recent thread on the same issue that I didn't keep track of.
-
I second komrade's request for the same thing in the Word plugin; and I third the request for disabling quicksearch as an option in the preferences. I find I never use it without " anymore.
-
Bumping this. It's simple and I think it is clear that users more often make changes to their profile than to their email and password.
-
Well, not if you and others make the case that the default behavior should be changed. I've always found the generic snapshot names confusing. This is probably related to the fact that about one third of my PDFs are scanned (and not scraped/download…

Maybe there is some useful information here? http://www.zotero.org/support/word_processor_plugin_troubleshooting

Welcome to Zotero, glad you like it! You seem to have hit upon a bug introduced since the coming of rich text notes. I've confirmed this behaviour. Basically, all underlying HTML from rich text notes is exposed in a report. If a developer passes …
-
No, true — there isn't.
-
I've gotten a similar response, even though the librarians themselves use Zotero and like it. In this case, they have to do with a technical group which makes the decisions. The politics involved in such issues are tiresome. And yet every single mo…

You can also bypass the clipboard and generate a file directly like this: select all references, right click and choose 'Create Bibliography from Selected Items' and choose "Save as RTF" as export format.
-
See tips 2 (duplicates) and 9 (tags) of my 12 must know Zotero tips.
-
Please keep in mind that we cannot see what it is exactly that you are doing, and which steps you are taking. Try to give as much information as possible, that makes it easier for us to help you. Newer versions of Zotero can usually handle older da…

(Aha, Adam just posted 30 seconds before me.)

Read more closely. This is the first way to do it: Option A: Copy the Library Folder The most reliable way to move your entire library to another machine is to copy the Zotero data folder from your Firefox profile on the first machine to the Firefox…

Try checking the link that Dan provided: http://www.zotero.org/support/kb/transferring_a_library

If everyone's new to Zotero and you're in a hurry, you might try sharing one master account (i.e. having 10 clients that all sync to one Zotero account). That bypasses the Groups functionality entirely, and a downside is that all share one library. …
-
See here for a previous topic on your point 1.
-
I should've mentioned, but I don't use the storage sync option of Zotero for the moment — what I meant by 'syncing externally' is that I keep my storage folders in sync using SyncToy. Looking forward to Beta 7 then!
-
The standards page is neat. And I like the KB pages implementation of your FAQ.
-
Welcome to Zotero! 1. First check out the Quick start guide. 2. Then read up on how to attach files. 3. For citing stuff in Word 2008, you will need this plugin. Installation instructions are here and a general explanation is under Word processor…
-
What do you mean? Zotero acts as a manager for your references and can save or link PDFs with them. If you have bibliographic metadata about the PDF file you could use Zotero to cite that in a paper, but that is not really about connecting Zotero an…
-
Have you tried changing the style to another one and then changing back to IEEE, as Bionatsci says?
-
Adobe Acrobat Professional has a relatively good OCR engine (supporting several languages). I always use it to do a quick OCR job of stuff I've scanned myself.
-
I guess it should. It is technically little different from syncing over a network, which I do, and which has been working perfectly fine for me over the last year.
