I do not think that Zotero has undo functionality for notes. If you have synced your library online, the old version of the note might be there.
-
There probably is not. If you have the citation data in Zotero, you can export it in the APA format. If you are more specific about your problem, then it would be possible to give a more specific answer.

Depends on what you mean by reinstalling. If you deleted everything from your harddrive and did not have backups, then it is not possible to recover. If you have backups, then it is possible to recover the Zotero data by copying it from the backed u…

I posted a patch implementing option 1 to zotero.dev list. Options 2 and 2 might be preferrable, though. http://groups.google.com/group/zotero-dev/browse_thread/thread/ba1693cb98db55de

As far as I know, no.

I do not think that the annotation toolbar is implemented in the chrome plugin.
-
Are you trying to say that 1) There is something wrong with the current approach used in the zotero protocol handler or 2) There is a bug in the current beta and the protocol handling does not work
-
I believe that you can do this already by using tags.

1) When you drag and drop an item, it is stored as a stand alone attachment. You can create an item that will store this attachment by right clicking and selecting "Create parent item from attachment" or "Retrieve metadata for PDF". The latter is re…
-
What would be nice that if a standalone attachment is selected, Zotero would suggest to create a parent item or to retrieve metadata. The parent item and metadata could even have their own buttons on the attachment details pane.

- Importing is not meant for importing article PDFs, but reference databases. -What "Create parent item from attachment item" and "Retrieve metadata for PDF" actually mean.

@benbyerly : I would recommend that you wait for it to be included in the official release. If you want to On OS X and Linux, the patch would be implemented by first checking out the Zotero code with the following command svn co -r 10302 https://…

Sorry for underestimating your knowledge of Zotero. There is something that could be of interest for you. Search for "preferred library" in this thread http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/19350/option-to-disable-libraries/ This patch collects re…

If you are just attaching files, they are stored within your Zotero profile. The copies will be saved both locally and on the NAS.

I do not really understand what your problem is. If want to create a bibliography to a document, you can just use the word processor plugins and insert a bibliography. It will be formatted in the document and show what references you have cited that…

I believe that an overhaul to the search is planned for the version after 3.0. There is some discussion on the forums about this.

Here is another thread where this problem is reported http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/18213/slow/#Item_3

It is not obvious that you need to have the first name of an author always stored in the same way to avoid triggering given name disambiguation. (See this thread: http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/19570/option-to-disable-disambiguation/) I do no…
-
You are seeing name disambiguation in action. What you need to do is to ensure that all the entries that are by same author have the first names written in exactly the same way. You can see discussion about this feature e.g. here: http://forums.z…

There is still one more issue that causes complexity here: In the 3.0 version it is possible that a citation is not linked to your own zotero DB, but is based on metadata that is embedded in the document. (In this case someone else has inserted the …
-
Thank you for the bug report. I will look into it.
-
I like your approach. The only limitation seems to be that this way you is that it handles only once source per citation.
-
If you search this site, the first hit will give you a page that has information on the Chrome connector.
-
I highly recommend that you use Zoteros group library features and online synchronization instead of trying to use the same database file for different users. You cannot have the same database open in multiple Zotero clients without code changes to …

julianwyatt: You should check out the latest development version of ZoteroQuickLook to see if that answers to your need. There is a demo video here. The quicklook from citations feature is currently mac only because I have not had time to implement …

Just right click on the strange code and disable showing field codes.
-
You have enable "Show field codes" feature of word. Highlight the entire document and then right-click on a citation and you will see an option to hide the field codes.

How about 2, 14, and 15? The idea to duplicate a firefox preference (6) is to make the download action feature easier to discover. But I agree that this is not important at all. I agree on the number of toolbar buttons. However, the current layou…

- Title font larger and bold I like this idea as well. - Author fields combined in one list of authors (when not editing them) - Journal, volume, number, pages and date fields combined - Don't display the title of the field, but use the whole column…

Modified item 13 and added a couple of more items to the list: 13) The dialog for choosing replacements for missing references should show the same columns as the insert citation dialog. And these should be selectable 16) The user should be able t…
