• This will be a bit tricky. E.g. http://solo.bodleian.ox.ac.uk/primo_library/libweb/showPNX.jsp?id=oxfaleph010311597 does not work for http://solo.bodleian.ox.ac.uk/primo_library/libweb/action/dlDisplay.do?docId=oxfaleph010311597&vid=OXVU1 but ht…

• Frankly, WorldCat is not doing anything wrong here. Both composed and decomposed Unicode is valid and Zotero should be handling this better. There are a number of discussions on this and it's just a matter of normalizing the strings as they enter Zo…

• It does seem that this is not working with Standalone open. I will investigate why. Edit: yes, there is something really messed up when Zotero Standalone is opened and then even after it is closed. I probably won't have time to figure this out toda…

• once the add-on is disabled, you can also try reinstalling it from zotero.org. Your data directory appears to be intact, since you can start Zotero Standalone

• Oh, sorry I missed that. Yes, we can space them out, since that's the usual form they come in. I'll fix that in a minute or two.

• Do you have some sample links for (1)? I usually prefer not to mess with initials, because it's not always clear whether the "initials" should have periods after them (unless you know what the person's actual name is). I can take a look at the spaci…

• @mmwood, Make sure that all of your translators are up to date Preferences -> General -> Check Now (in Zotero Standalone). Then restart Chrome. Could you provide Debug IDs from both Chrome and Zotero Standalone for the same attempt to save f…

• That error is probably unrelated to the OP's, so please start a new thread if restarting your computer does not help. While you're at it, please make sure that your Zotero for Firefox is up to date (4.0.16). Also, try using the Database Repair Too…

• I submitted a patch for the Chrome/Safari connectors that will address this (though no ETA). What adamsmith suggests could be a temporary fix in the meantime.

• I wouldn't call it a bug in Zotero. This was introduced consciously about 5 months ago. Though it does seem like a bug in Zutilo (not ZotFile?). It would technically be possible to add a hidden preference to disable this, but in general we want to a…

• I can reproduce the Euclid problem - there's something odd about the PDF handling on the site (you can try this out yourself: open the pdf in Chrome, copy the URL from the urlbar and open it in a new browser Window --> Instead of the PDF you get …

• What is your reasoning for avoiding these links? They don't count towards your storage quota, if that was your concern.

• Hmmm, this may have something to do with how sciencedirect authenticates their institution. This does work for me on campus, but it may not work for Steve. @Steve, we would actually need to see a Debug ID from Zotero Standalone for this one (unless…

• @adamsmith, are you sure this is working for you behind a proxy with Chrome + ZSA? The PDFs are located on a different domain, so I would be surprised if it worked. I can't test this right now, but I will when I get home.

  in Attached PDFs from informs and sciencedirect Comment by aurimas December 9, 2013
• The location of that data directory should be ok. It looks like it's pointing to Zotero Standalone's data directory, which is fine. So what problems _exactly_ are you experiencing right now in Zotero for Firefox? Is it the same as you described in …

• For the time being, let's stick to Zotero for Firefox and not touch Zotero Standalone (keep it closed). Also, while we're trying to fix this, please disable Kaspersky antivirus. Once you update Zotero for Firefox to 4.0.16 (and if it doesn't fix t…

• So the error occurs because doWeb gets called on a Google ads page (in an iframe). Once the whole page is loaded, the detectWeb on the top frame overrides the detectWeb results from the iframes and all is good. I'll have to look into this more, but…

• Are there any other messages in that Error Report window? Make sure you are running the latest version of Zotero (4.0.16) if not, install it from http://www.zotero.org/download/. Disable any security software (antivirus, firewall, etc.) that may b…

• Yes, re-installing Zotero will not delete existing data, but you are highly encouraged to maintain backups of your Zotero data directory anyway, so you may as well do that now. http://www.zotero.org/support/zotero_data

  in Standalone not accessible from firefox connector Comment by aurimas December 8, 2013
• Is this in the Zotero client (Firefox or Standalone) or online on zotero.org? Have you tried restarting your browser or Zotero? Edit: if you click on the tag, does Zotero show anything?

• Also, I think the english version of that error is "No apps are installed to open this type of link (zotero). Look for an app in the store.", which probably refers to an attempt to open a "zotero://" link, though I'm not sure why a link like that wo…
