dperkel: You need multiple firefox profiles - http://xrl.us/ostsw (Link to lifehacker.com) You'll need to install zotero separately in each profile. I collect all my academic stuff in my main profile, and all my sociology stuff in a separate o…

Sure, I'm building some supervised text mining infrastructure on top of Zotero (mostly pretty naive stuff at the moment, but hopefully becoming more sophisticated as I get my head around what I want it to be able to do). The back story is that…

Firefox running on OS X (from /Applications/Firefox.app) and the thumb drive is FAT16
-
I'm seeing this problem intermittently as well. And yes, it is on FAT formatted USB drives.
-
No, it seems to be a more generic thing that happens when viewing snapshots and the annotation is displayed at the top of the snapshot window.

protein function: thanks for a rather brilliant piece of advocacy - I think I will print it out and take it to a meeting I'm having with my research director when she gets back from maternity leave next month (in which I argue that my outfit needs …

Not to solve your problem, but here's the workflow I use when I'm having translator problems: 1. Identify the title of the work I'm looking for 2. Search for it on google scholar with "as much as the title as convenient to paste into the se…

Firefox 2 + zotero used to be a little slow on older hardware. Now it's fine with firefox 3.
-
OK, so it doesn't work with the proxy link in 1.0.7 (but works fine with the direct publisher link), and I get a translator error in the svn version
-
Yes, there was something odd about my setup from when i wrote my own emerald translator. But... While it's working from the direct publisher link: http://xrl.us/k9w7f but not through my institutions proxy: http://xrl.us/k9xiz I'm guessing…

drodophila: Well, for what I'm doing at the moment, I find that going to google scholar, typing in as much of the reference as will render it distinctive (like the title in quotes for example) and then importing into Zotero from Google Scholar, the…

pdf indexing should slow down the importing of individual references slightly, but not the speed of zotero itself. Please someone correct me if I'm wrong. Speaking as a user of "legacy hardware" (an ibook g4 on os x) a "disable incremental search …
-
Well the traditional way (from ye olde mainframe terminal) to do *bold* /italic/ -strikethrough- _underline_ (and maybe ^superscript and _subscript), and it works fairly well - it's quick, visually clear and easily translated to semantic markup. …
-
well my preference is to put the pdf in the database and save a snapshot of the page that the pdf came from.

I'd look into if it's possible for Zotero to load both tagged HTML (say an em element with a class attribute) AND it's associated CSS definition. My experience of exporting textile-with-additional-css-rules to html and then exporting to word sugges…
-
Can I vote to have an open source web based implementation please! So that I can run my own zotero server or get my institution to. I think the most challenging aspect of multi-user (web based) zotero from a usability perspective is the manag…
-
Can you describe how to specify what collection to add new items to if you're using zotero in this mode please? Collections are really important for me (basically what make the whole tool sane on my g4 ibook really), and I don't really see ho…

"This should really happen at the system/network level, with a user logging in to a public computer and having their Firefox profile automatically available on the system (or at least having the Firefox preferences file synched to a network share, w…
-
to be honest I'd settle for a module that allows me to take csl from my input and output something that's formatted. My goal is a model that can interface with Catalyst easily - so basically a module called something like Bibliography::CSL or somet…
-
Oh god grief, does this mean I need to port from vba to perl? or is there a javascript library I can use as a crib?
-
Actually I was thinking about this. My library has moved to firefox as their default browser, but the computers are pretty locked-down - no running .exes on flash drives for example. So it would be nice if for "location of zotero db" prefere…
-
I wouldn't mind writing some perl to read and format csl. Thing is I wouldn't know where to start - are there bindings for another scripting language I can use as a basis of any perl hackery?
