Thanks a lot for your answer.

Hi, adamsmith, apologies for my last message/rant (besides misplaced, my criticism was wrong. I have had time indeed to upgrade to Ubuntu 9.10 in a couple of other PCs and laptops, and the upgrade has worked in each case out of the box, even and b…

Hi, Jon. Thanks for your quick answer. I made first a 9.10 clean install and, as I missed some programs, I then reinstalled 9.04 and used it for a while, but as said, this was not the old 9.04 I had been working with. Then I upgraded to 9.10. Eve…

Hi Jon, thanks for your answer. Unfortunately, I cannot get the problem solved. And it is looking more and more complicated. 1) sun-java-6-bin and sun-java6-jre are installed. The multiverse option is selected in Software Sources. But wheni try…

Hi, Simon, many thanks for your help. It solved my problem indeed by uninstalling the icedtea plugin and installing the sun-java6 plugin instead. I can now insert new citations and edit the old ones in the Openoffice files produced using previous …

Hi, 1) Firefox extension 3.0a2 for word processing integration is working well with Zotero 2.0b7.1 in Openoffice Windows XP, but not inOpenoffice Ubuntu 9.04. 2) Openoffice Windows XP does not show the problemes above mentioned any longuer. I c…

Thanks for your answer. I just sent an email with the attached files. Yes. If I remove the headings, I don't receive the "This item no longer exists" message, and with these headings I do (sometimes I get that message, sometimes I get another e…

Hi, 1) Zotero 2.0b7 and the plugin 3.0a1 for Openoffice continue to reproduce the prolems when editing my old documents (worked with z previous to 2.0b65). I have made an extract of the documents and a copy of the error message from Zotero in Op…

Hi, Dan, thank you very much for your quick answer. In relation to your question: excerpts of the document don't show the problem. The problem happens only when the number of citations lays above 120-130. 1) My document in its present state has…

Fantastic ! Thanks very much for your help and the plug-in. I have just installed the plug-in and it's working OK as well in the main text as in the footnotes of OpenOffice: there is no problem with the edition of the citations any longer. I mu…

2.0b6.3 reproduces exactly the same problem (or bug).
-
This is clearly a bug. I have reproduced it, in another computer, this time in Windows XP, Firefox 3.5. The error report ID is 1510478765 Here also, as in Ubuntu, - "when there are multiple citations in the same footnote, Zotero recognizes onl…
-
The problem mentionned in my previos comment happens only in footnotes. Besides, I have noticed that in footnotes, you have to insert the citation before a space between the citation and the text following it; otherwise, that text behaves as if …
-
I have deleted a citation (and its record in the Zotero database) which was causing part of the problem: i got messages that the record didn't exist in the Zotero database while it did exist and I could even use it in a new document. But it remain…
-
I have just installed the 2.0b6.2 version and the problems remain. The error report ID is 563122816 Would you please take a look at it? Many tanks.
-
Thank you for your answer, Dan. I had thought DB Repair Tool was intended for Firefox 2, only. Meanwhile, I have solved the problem just by deleting the whole Zotero directory in the desktop where the problem occurred and copying in its place the Z…
-
f. bennett, many thanks for your answer. Unfortunately, the problem persists. Following your advice, I ran these 2 commands: 1) cd /home/andres/.mozilla/firefox This resulted in andres@andres-desktop:~/.mozilla/firefox$ 2) find -printf "%u\n" | gre…
-
I have noticed that the problem happens specially when I use Ubuntu's Compiz. But the problem also happens when I use Metacity. In this latter case, when I choose the Preferences menu, Zotero pops up a window asking for the password, but the window …
-
Many thanks, Dan. The citations editor works well now.
-
OK. This problem has nothing to do with synchronizing. The solution is in: http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/4033/error-encountered-when-generating-reports/
-
PROBLEM SOLVED! I uninstalled and then re-installed Firefox to another directory. And now Zotero 1.05 is working OK.

Sorry I forgot to report this: I am working with Vista

Hi Sybille, Dan, many thanks for your answers. I see I'll have to wait for the enhancement as described in the ticket (it matches precisely what I want to work with). It is true that it is not a high priority enhancement (and there are workarounds),…

P.S. more precisely, the page Zotero produces in the browser is an HTML code view of the FreeMind file.

Hi, Jon, thanks a lot for your answer. You are right. But then, the situation seems a bit more complicated. It also occurs when I have entered two different books of the same author, but for one of them I have registered the full first name and…
-
I have (maybe) the same problem: 1. When I enter a reference in my text, it includes the first name of the author in the reference. For instance, for a John Smith's book published in 2008, instead of "(Smith 2008)" it quotes as "(John Smith 2008)…
