Yes, we have. We've never gotten a response.

I spent a couple hours trying to find a workaround here, but my efforts were unsuccessful. So for now, your only options are to use local files instead of OneDrive, or to roll back to Word 2016 15.14 or earlier (although these versions have bugs tha…

In Word 15.15, AppleScript is broken for documents loaded from OneDrive. Zotero uses AppleScript to communicate with Word, so it does not work. I posted on Microsoft's forum here. Hopefully they will fix this. I'm still thinking about possible worka…

These issues probably fall into three categories: Bugs in other people's software we can't do anything about. (Any time Word is crashing, it probably falls into this category.) Cases where I need to fix/update docs. (For LO5 installation on Mac, you…

This is most likely the same issue described here: https://www.zotero.org/support/word_processor_plugin_troubleshooting?&#word_2010could_not_find_a_running_word_instance

Standalone can't return 503 so it is extremely likely this is a proxy issue.

Zotero Standalone 4.0.28.6 is now available (at least for Mac and Windows) and should fix this.
-
This should be fixed in Word for Windows Integration 3.5.2, available now.

The only way I can imagine that you're getting that message is that you're using the template from https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/47311/2/#Item_19, which was only ever meant for debugging purposes.

No, your library size is irrelevant. Unless you are in the process of inserting a citation there is no communication between Word and Zotero. This is a Word issue and only Microsoft can do anything about it.

I experienced some lag as well at one point, but it seems to have been fixed by a Word update. You can update Word by selecting "Check for Updates" from the Help menu.

First, check if there are Word add-ins besides Zotero in the startup folder. This is usually located at /Applications/Microsoft Office 2011/Office/Startup/Word. If there aren't, something related to Visual Basic for Applications may be corrupted. In…

Not sure what version of Word you're using, but you might try updating Zotero. It looks like you have 4.0.26.3. The latest version is 4.0.27.7.

I would guess this is related to the citeproc-js update. I can dig around, but perhaps fbennett knows the cause?

I just released new versions of Zotero Word for Mac Integration and Zotero Standalone that include the fix. kamy08: You should uninstall the trunk XPI. If you're using Firefox you should install the new release of Zotero Word for Mac Integration. I…

kamy08: Thanks for helping me debug this! For some reason, within Word, the HOME environmental variable on your system points to your actual home directory (which Word can't access because it's sandboxed and has restricted permissions) rather than …

This will be fixed in the next Standalone release.

kamy08: Please try installing the MacWord Trunk XPI from https://www.zotero.org/support/dev_builds#word_processor_plugins_development_xpis and let me know if it works
-
kamy08: Okay, we're getting somewhere. Can you download the .dot again and follow those same steps? I changed it again; there should be just one dialog this time. You can send the output to support@zotero.org, since it's possible it might have perso…

The plugin is expecting that the home directory in Word is the home directory in the container and that Word can access it, but for reason I can't figure out that's not the case on your system. If you're interested in debugging further, I've update…

kamy08: Can you try the following: 1) Exit Word 2) Download Zotero.dot.zip from here 3) Decompress it 4) Manually place the new Zotero.dot in ~/Library/Group Containers/UBF8T346G9.Office/User Content/Startup/Word replacing the old Zotero.dot. (You …

kamy08: Can you run this from the Terminal with Zotero and a Word document open: echo 'MacWord2016 addCitation' > ~/Library/Containers/com.microsoft.Word/Data/.zoteroIntegrationPipe and see what happens?

guillau25 and/or kamy08: Can you mind following the instructions at https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/47311/2/office-for-mac-2016/#Item_2 to help me figure out what's going on here?

Greg: It sounds like you manually installed Zotero Word for Mac Integration into Standalone, which we don't recommend precisely because it prevents it from updating automatically. Glad to hear you got it sorted. We're planning to overhaul the appea…
-
Greg: Is Word 2016 located at /Applications/Microsoft Word.app? Have you emptied the trash? It's possible Zotero can't find the Word 2016 installation because it's not in the typical location and attempting to locate it by other means might lead to …
-
Greg: The Word plugin should appear under the Add-ins tab in the ribbon in Word 2016. Is it not there? You should only be prompted to select the Script Menu Items folder if you also have Word 2008 or Word 2011 installed. bbbear2002: Can you give mo…

bengoldacre: Given the deadline, it might be faster for you to install an older version of Word than to attempt to debug this. But if you want to debug it, could you: 1) Provide a debug log for Zotero Standalone/Zotero for Firefox startup. Follow t…

This is fixed in Zotero Standalone 4.0.27.6, available now.
