  • okay, I see what you are saying about dataset type and I agree. There are no guidelines to cite datasets from journals in my discipline I know about. This is done by citing a certain book, article or user-guide...
  • dataset type - I have been using webpages for that type sofar and I like the idea of not doing it anymore. Attaching stuff such as the survey-instrument or the user-manual is very convenient. I guess important fields are title, creator, distributing…
  • Two comments: - I like the dataset type - What is the difference between 'book author' and 'editor' for book sections? Maybe more later... Generally, I think that it's more important to make two changes (I know, this is kind of unrelat…
  • I had to use the fix described there (i.e. unzip zotero@chnm.gmu.edu.xpi). Below is the list of files and folders from /Users/greg/.../extensions/. /Users/greg/.../extensions/zoteroquicklook@gmail.com/ did not exists. So I also unziped zoteroquic…
  • Hi, I get a warning message for the first: Components.utils.import("resource://gre/modules/AddonManager.jsm"); var addonLocation; AddonManager.getAddonByID("zoteroquicklook@gmail.com", function (addon) { addonLocation = addon.getResourceURI("se…

  • works like a charm! Thanks a lot! This is really a useful plugin... ps: let me know if the debug output is still helpful for you in which case I will post it...
  • well, I am not really sure... I just checked again and cleared the log before I tried using quicklook again. I got this error message which I disregarded because I thought it's not connected. Error: uncaught exception: TypeError: window…
  • Here is the output. I also tried to look at an attachment using quicklook. (calling "QuickLook" from the context menu doesn't make a different and the option sometimes seems to disappear from the context menu) zotero(3): ZoteroQuickLook lo…
  • Yes, I don't get the line about the location of the perl script! The Javascript error console shows some error but they are not connected to a certain website (like amazon)... By the way, is there another way to start quicklook than the spaceba…
  • Here you go ... I only posted the stuff until the last reference to Quicklook. Let me know if you need the other stuff too. It's just very long and would only fit in something like 5 posts.... zotero(3): Using data directory /Users/greg/Documen…
  • Doesn't work for me with Zotero 2.1 and FF4... What other information can I provide you with? It's installed but when I press the space bar nothing happens... Thanks for the great plugin!
  • the fix doesn't work for me either... I also have another question in regard to 2.1: Can I use 2.1 and still work together (share a group lib) with other people using 2.0 ?
  • interesting... just tried that out. It wasn't a problem to install 2.1b but I can't open it. When I click on Tools->Zotero nothing happens even though zotero shows up under extensions... Any idea?
  • I know, this has been discussed and I am aware that Zotero will certainly support Firefox 4 when it's released the beginning of next year. After playing with beta 7, though, I have the feeling that it's pretty stable and I also read that FF now enco…
  • 2.0.9 seems to have more surprises... it's not only the case that spell checking partly works for notes (http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/6393/spell-check-notes/#Item_15), note search also seems to work now. Maybe I just didn't realize that it w…
  • I was excited to discover that spell checking in notes seems to (nearly) work in 2.0.9. I didn't find anything about this in the change log but misspelled words are now underlined in red! Unfortunately, I do not get any suggestions when I right-clic…
  • I saw that this is not part of the 2.1 beta... it would be great to hear from the developers whether there are plans to add it for the final realizes? AND if so, does these plans include note search which I still think is crucial?
  • Firefox 4 'App Tab' feature begs the questions whether we will see Zotero in a tab at all. I know that the official release of Zotero is not compatible with the Firefox 4 beta at this point but I just checked out FF4 which will be released later thi…
  • and 'note search' from the same quick search bar.... please... would be so powerful and make Zotero an even better place to save all your notes... (sorry to repeat myself, but I would like to know whether that is actually planed)
  • I tried this on my netbook with Linux... very nice and useful! What's about a Mac version? Shouldn't that be easier than a Windows version?
  • Hey! yes, the code does not work for Windows. The reason simply is that I rely on a small application which does the actual extraction of the text from the highlights and this application only works on Mac (it's an Automator application). So if you …
  • okay, I see. And is it possible to access the Zotero file storage from other applications. Can I, for example, mount the Zotero storage folder?
  • I can see that... could have thought about it myself. (I guess, I was more thinking about the backup of pdfs and not the synchronization to other computers). Thanks
  • Are their any updates on the possibility to sync uncompressed files? I think that would be a very useful option because it would allow the user to access the pdf directly!
  • This is really a great plugin! The only thing I am missing is the 'pinch to zoom' functionality which I usually have with Quicklook on the mac...
  • I agree with adamsmith - we do not need a full-fledged Zotero on for smartphones. Even accessing the data, opening pdfs, reading notes and adding them would be great. Maybe the easiest way would be a redesigned and more feature rich web platform bas…
  • Since it looks like you are planing to add this functionality (which is totally great!), here are some suggestions: 1) Also add this menu to the 'insert-citation' dialog for the word etc. plugins 2) remember what the last selected search was.…
  • here is the code: http://gist.github.com/379397
  • okay, here is the code. I know, it's pretty ugly but hey I am usually just doing statistical programming... It's not straight forward to make this work. So here is a description: 1) I have been using chickenfoot to write this so far. The …
