  • Same problem for me: One PDF with articles by different authors. Do I get it correctly that this issue is still unresolved?
  • Agree!!! And would it be really be so difficult? As a first step, simply checking for identity of DOI or URL with an item in the database would be sufficient. For a nice user interface, see this post by Mark: http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/…
  • We have the ticket since more than one year, but no solution... There is a workaround: Searching for "does not contain" and leaving the search text empty. Unfortunately, this trick only works when creating a new search, but it does not work as a …
  • It seems that it was a transient problem (Web server? Internet connection?), now it works again with http://www.sciencemag.org/content/262/5131/218 (using 2.0.9). Sorry for the inconvenience!
  • Still a 'TypeError: match is null" error with the Highwire 2.0 translator. Translator version: lastUpdated 2011-01-05 17:05:00 Page: http://www.sciencemag.org/content/262/5131/218 BTW, DOI (add item by identifier) does not work on that page ei…
  • Sorry again, still the same error message with the new translator at this page http://www.sciencemag.org/content/330/6009/1364.abstract
  • Sorry, I got an error with it at Science Magazine: http://www.sciencemag.org/content/330/6009/1364.abstract The Error Console says: Error: TypeError: match is null Source File: ..../zotero/translators/Highwire%202.0.js
  • Hi Ajlyon, I agree, we have to push IOP to provide better data - it can't be their intention to make it difficult to cite their articles and thereby lower their impact factors... For the time being, until IOP fixes the problems, maybe a workaround c…
  • Hi Ajlyon, your work-in-progress translator works much better than the current one, but I agree that the RIS data privided by IOP are far from perfect (e.g. multiple authors in a single author line, no end page given). Now I also discovered why the …
  • Sorry, still no success - is there any trick different than cklicking on the "Save to Zotero" icon in the Address bar? My 'Institute of Physics.js' translator has "translatorID":"9346ddef-126b-47ec-afef-8809ed1972ab", "lastUpdated":"2008-04-28 17:…
  • Currently no success with IOP at all, e.g. http://iopscience.iop.org/0957-4484/6/4/001/ uses the DOI translator, but gives me Error: DOI Translator: could not find DOI Source File: .../zotero/translators/DOI.js Line: 0 When entering the DOI manu…
  • Debug ID (with Zotero 2.0) is D686137964. This was a cold start of Firefox after all post-login disk activity had died out, thus a comparably fast one (35 sec), not causing the error message to appear. 2.0 branch dev 2.0.3r6015: The error mes…
  • A tiny bit of progress: Antivirus software(Antivir.de) and the firewall are not making it slower - I tried with firewall off and disabled Antivir checking on read. Besides finding the slow items in Zotero debug (see above), is there anything else …
  • It is no issue with Mac OS, I agree; cold start of Firefox with Zotero is reasonably fast on my Mac. It is *much* slower on Windows XP, even with comparable hardware (maybe related to the more efficient file system of unix-type systems?) P.S. Dan,…
  • Windows XP is by far not as stable as Mac OS, and I guess that many users switch off their Windows notebooks over night (I do that even with my Mac; why should I leave it on over night? It boots very quickly, and I would have to type the password an…
  • Maybe this is helpful for the developers, here are the slow items from the zotero debug window (opening Firefox after system reboot and waiting for the harddisk activity to cease, network cable plugged off; if there is a large difference, times with…
  • It is really a nuisance - Firefox needs MUCH more time to start if Zotero is enabled (Win XP, Firefox 3.6.0-3.6.3, it came roughly with Zotero 2.0, give or take one version step). Disabling the error message would not solve the slow start. If I…
  • +1 to scot! Please find a way to omit urls from 'printed paper' items. Some (most?) Journal (La)Tex styles add the URL if it is there, even though it should not be displayed. I am not sure whether the existence of a page range is good enough as the …
  • It was not only Google Analytics but also Google that was blocked, causing the search not to work. (It was blocked mainly for privacy reasons; the javascript code on their search pages is incredibly complex, it includes 'phone home' functionality on…
  • Yes, your suspicion is correct, it is an issue of NoScript; I did not expect that function to depend on Google javascript code (the link does not look like anything going to Google). I'll keep Google javascript blocked for privacy reasons and direct…
  • Safari: now it works, thank you! Firefox: Still not working. I was not referring to the Google search in the address bar but to the Web site search field below the 'donate' button. Entering 'zotero' there gets me to http://www.zotero.org/se…
  • I had the problem also with the green 'sync' symbol being quiet. It works now after turning off automatic sync and waiting for a while. Maybe some sync activity can be active even without the sync symbol spinning. Thank you for pointing me into the …
  • It does not work for me, even after clearing the cache&restarting Firefox or when using Safari instead of Firefox: Entering text 'zotero' into the 'search' box at top right -> no result, gets me to a page with 3 tabs (people, groups, support)…
  • It seems that it has been changed to the DOI (Crossref) translator. There are two problems with it: (1) Bug: Article numbers are not stored in the "Pages" field. (2) Abstracts are not captured (I don't have automatic PDF capture on, so I don't k…
  • Subscript/superscript numbers in unicode do not solve the problem: (i) One cannot find them by searching, e.g. 'H2O'. (ii) It is limited to numbers, what about the ion O- with superscript minus? Or variables in the subscript, CnH2n-2? (iii) Insertin…
  • APS has removed the subtitle from the journal name from the COinS now.
  • Apart form the abstract missing, there is another annoying problem: Physical Review B is recorded as journal name "Physical Review B (Condensed Matter and Materials Physics)". The subtitle "(Condensed Matter and Materials Physics)" is not part of th…
  • It was the COinS translator according to the hover box when leaving the cursor over the zotero icon in the address bar. Preferences>General>"Update Now" (translators&styles) alone did not help. "Update Now" plus restarting Firefox did solv…
  • Do you really get the authors? A different translator than COinS? On a second try, I did not get the error – no idea what makes the difference (setup unchanged). Nevertheless, I cannot get the authors for any article from scitation.aip.org (that's…
  • Not only APS, also AIP journals are affected - probably everything on scitation.aip.org It seems that zotero only accesses the COinS information, which does not include authors.
