To confirm, I'm seeing some people talking about this reference extractor tool: https://rintze.zelle.me/ref-extractor/ Might that tool work for my purposes? That is, extract the references (once for each chapter in separate docs) to its own collect…

I, too, am in a situation of strongly needing this feature in Word! Any guidance would help if someone has found a workaround...
-
Bumping this question as I have the same issue (working in Word here). Lots of single authors with lots of publications in this field. It is obvious to me who they are and that they are the same despite slight differences in middle name initials etc…
-
Hey again, I have still been nervous to do this step because of the stage I'm at with writing (i.e., it is crucial that I not lose any connections to linked citations in Word doc plug in, any customized citations, things like that). I wouldn't expec…
-
I had previously asked how to copy the files from the source folder that didn't exist in the target folder because I was concerned about causing issues with syncing, and, whatever this simple "rsync" option is, it was not presented to me at the time…
-
Update - I believe that I mostly fixed the problem myself, my web file syncing is still not updating, which is still a concern. But I can at least access all of my PDFs in the Zotero desktop app again. I'll include details of that below in case it h…
-
I just wanted to update for others who might read this (&/or if devs are willing to still help) that I continued to have this issue and have ended up just manually re-adding pdfs as I go. But I'm still seeking a solution because this manual appr…
-
Hi again, I appreciate the response. I did try copying over those folders, although some of them didn't have the PDFs in them, and I'm still running into missing PDFs after having done that. I still don't understand how this happened because I defi…

Hi, thanks for the swift reply. I'm having the exact same issue as many other people I've found in the forum, including this thread (except for not using the same style), but I'll explain if that helps. The format I'm using is the Journal of Wildlif…
-
Have there been any changes to this? Any way to fix the issue and refresh without having to cut out all of the references and re-enter them again? My computer is pretty old and slow and takes quite a long time for the Word plugin to pull up the pop-…
-
Perfect. Thank you for clarifying!
-
Sorry, I do have one more follow-up question that I can't find an answer to in the forums or documentation. I'm seeing a huge difference between the size of the "storage" folder on my original laptop (1.2 GB) and the storage size currently being use…
-
Okay thanks! I figured as much but just wanted to be certain, given how dire the consequences would be if I did it incorrectly.
-
Thanks for the reply, @dstillman - good to know I can ignore that quirk as long as it's working okay! For the twin author/year issue, the problem is that it isn't actually adding the suffixes automatically for me. I tried testing it out, and it's i…
-
Just adding my comment here in case this feature ever gets implemented because I would love to know if/when it does!
-
I'm just chiming in - has this functionality been implemented yet, or is it still deemed too difficult to allow the Author (year) format? (I don't use APA, but that's just a common way to cite in my field.)
-
Thanks! I'm finding that multiple items are not importing the year, even though I'm using the extension and trying to create a new parent item from the DOI, which is a bummer. I'm not going through with a fine enough comb right now to know if other …
-
I'm here with the same question; to clarify, what happens when you Undo Retrieve Metadata? Will there be an option to re-retrieve it once we do that? Thanks! I'm having lots of issues with things missing in my metadata...
-
Hi @dstillman ! I was wondering if this feature has been updated since the originally post above a couple of years ago. I have the same question. For example, I added a paper just now, using the usual recommended method of using the browser plug-in/…
-
Yeah, sorry, haha; I'm not very familiar with the term. I just assumed that it was referring to what I was describing since I didn't see another sync description that matched it. I definitely know to avoid letting GDrive touch the zotero.sqlite file…
-
@dstillman - Thank you once again for the swift reply! That's great to hear that the annotation deletion issue has been fixed. I did read through the Stored/Linked Files documentation earlier, plus lots of forums, and I eventually concluded that li…
-
@fgr1 - Did you ever end up figuring out how to preserve notes while using Google Drive etc. for file storage? I'm out of Zotero file storage and had assumed that my annotations would be transferred if I switch to Linked Files, but now I'm concerned…
-
Thank you so much for the swift reply. I am not certain that everything is there online, but there are some relatively recent things at least. So, I deleted the zotero.sqlite file from my computer (after making a backup). When I opened Zotero up aga…
