I have the same problem in Zoterobib right now. The ISBN I am trying is: 9781542866507.
-
It's been a little while since I posted this, so I thought I'd check in. I'm hoping that Zotero coders can make a huge improvement to an already-great bibliographic management program, by doing something relatively modest to expand the power of Note…

Latest email from our e-resources librarian: "We spent last week working with various users and providers, as well as our colleagues at other institutions on this issue. Apparently, recent web browser updates for Chrome and Firefox caused some …

As far as I understand this problem, it's not a problem that occurs when someone is explicitly trying to use Zotero; it is a problem that occurs when someone has a Zotero connector installed, and Zotero does something in the background that cuts off…

I've asked my colleague to comment on this thread, as I don't know the difference between a web proxy and a system proxy. For clarification, when you say "those were for inaccessible resources," do you mean, when users tried to use the function to…

(I recommend Zotero all the time and teach workshops on how to use it...so I don't like it when "disable Zotero" is the solution offered. Is it just a matter of unchecking one or two of the File Handling preferences checkboxes? Those don't *seem* li…

Thank you. This is very good to know. I'll go back and bug my IT department about it. Is this also true for Mac OS (since you specified the Windows .dotm)?
-
Thank you for the link. However, in step 2, "If you only see a webpage icon, make sure you're looking at a supported site. If you're not sure, try a New York Times article or an Amazon product page." I know that the site I'm on is not supported, bu…

(I have since installed 5.0.34, and it still is not working).
-
I had thought that this trouble making Zotero 5.0's Word integration work was only going to be a problem for people on our campus network, whose computers are not allowed to enable macros. So I was shaken when I was helping a colleague with a Zotero…

Looks like Chicago 17th edition is now published. I hope that when Zotero does its usual excellent and timely style update (I remember with relish how Zotero beat EndNote to the punch with the latest APA update...) we'll see a blog post announcing i…

I did have 2013. So that I can teach my class on Tuesday, my IT professional upgraded me to Word 2016 AND enabled macros on my individual machine. But after I teach on Tuesday, he will re-disable the macros, and see if Zotero's Word add-in will sti…

(but there's still no Zotero ribbon tab or Zotero buttons)
-
Yes, listed and checked. Yes, the following appear under Developer -> Macros: ZoteroAddEditBibliography ZoteroAddEditCitation ZoteroEditBibliography ZoteroInsertCitation ZoteroRefresh ZoteroRemoveCodes ZoteroSetDocPrefs
-
Oh, and in the Developer tab in Word, Zotero.dotm is indeed listed.
-
I don't know. I don't have any other citation managers installed. I'll ask my IT folks about that signing bit in the email I'm writing them now.
-
Turns out, in my part of the university, and possibly also in other parts, all macro functions are disabled for our office computers, unless they are signed locally. So I assume this kills the Word add-in to Zotero for MU?
-
Oh, also - I followed the manual installation instructions, and did copy the .dotm file into Word's STARTUP folder...but I still don't see a Zotero menu when I restart Word.
-
I miss the gear. I find Preferences to be so buried now that it's under "Edit", even though it's technically no more buried than it was under the gear icon. If the gear is being removed in order to get away from using icons instead of words in the m…
-
So, the only way I can install Zotero's Word plugin on my workplace computer is to do something my IT department regards as unsafe and that Microsoft does not recommend, which is enable all macros? Is that accurate?
-
I should add that the non-Word aspects of Zotero work fine for me, including the browser add-in for Firefox that I installed. It's just the Word piece that doesn't function. However, the Word piece being un-installable for those of us following our…
-
My Trust Center does have an Add-Ins section, and in my case, the box "Require Application Add-ins to be signed by Trusted Publisher" is already unticked. Under Macro Settings, I could choose "Enable all macros (not recommended; potentially danger…
-
Macro Settings are: Disable all macros except digitally signed macros. Is Zotero a digitally signed macro?
-
And now, I tried it again, making sure that Word was closed the whole time. I got an "Installation was successful" popup. Then opened Word and...no Zotero. :( I looked under Add-Ins in Word, and I saw that Zotero.dotm was listed as an active appli…
-
Should Word be closed or open while I am doing the above process?
-
I tried Tools -> Add-ons, disabling (and restarting Zotero) and reenabling (and restarting Zotero), then going back to Preferences -> Cite -> Word Processors, and hitting the Install button again, but once more, nothing happened, and Word s…

I will add that, usually if there is some program requiring an Admin password to install it, I see a popup asking me to provide that Administrator login, and the installation works, and continues to work after I am no longer logged in as Administrat…
-
Logged into my machine as Administrator, I was able to install the plugin. However, the plugin is only installed for the Administrator user, so is only usable when I'm logged in as Administrator, which my IT support unit prohibits, because of the se…
-
It would be impractical for me to call someone from I.T. to use their admin password to log into my machine, and I am not getting a popup saying that the computer requires an administrator password to do this install. There is just nothing happening…

No, not a new machine. I'm not sure what you mean by running Zotero as an administrator. I am logged into my machine in the standard way (my campus login and password).
