I have this issue too. Any updates on this matter? Zotfile developers seem to have deprecated the extensions.zotfile.pdfExtraction.openPdfMac preference flag, and at Github I'm being told that the issue is in Zotero's end. https://github.com/jlege…

Hi adomasven, Thank you for your detailed comment. I completely understand those issues arising form cross-platform compatibility, and I accept them as an inevitable shortcoming. No worries there, I will adapt. As for the timestamp thing, I quickl…

Well, no worries, the timestamp thing is merely cosmetic, and the other was just a slight scare and a bit of PEBCAK, heh; it's troubleshooting 101, if I had tested it right away on the MacBook, I'd have rebooted straight away. On the plus side, you …

Heh, I just went to ~/Library/Group Containers/[Office]/User Content/Templates and realized I have not one, but five Normal.dotm* files. I'll move the lot outside and see how it goes.

As for plugins, that's a sensible idea. I still haven't gotten around to uninstall Mendeley's own stuff. I'll also try cleaning up and using all the default templates, sure.

Here it is, it appears when inserting the very first citation, in an empty document, right after selecting the citation style. It seems to be an empty date/time timestamp: 00/00/00 00:00:00 https://drive.google.com/file/d/18CM-VRHB-a9-zQ1atYe9P18oz…

Unfortunately, in the process of troubleshooting this I rebooted the machine straight away, sorry. As for the zero thing, I can frequently catch a glimpse of them (some frames) every now and then. I'll try screencapping it.
-
Well, after a reboot it solved itself, but I still got a bunch of 00:00:00 (kind of like an empty timestamp) and an error message after selecting the citation style on my first attempt.

Will do!

Ok, a bit of good news: I can't reproduce the citation bar bug on my MacBook Pro (the second one, however, is consistent and reproducible). I will try a reboot, maybe something's up.

Also, I tried reinstalling the Word extension, to no avail.

As for the other “bug”, alternatively, touching the {Citation} placeholder in any way, or typing elsewhere on the page at all, should indeed kill the classic window or the bar, IMHO. I'm not a UX expert by any means, but I did study it during my BFA…

Ok, fair enough. I'll do so and provide the link on this post as soon as I'm done. Here it is! https://drive.google.com/file/d/12rvYaLTlM3KNukb_eTE9PhLTeTiUbFxM/view?usp=sharing

As I've said, I'll be more than happy to provide you with screen captures, documents (not that I believe those would help in any way, as they are completely blank .docx affairs), logs, the works. ;)
-
Oh, I should also add that I can very easily trigger an annoying error message by opening the bar or the classic window, clicking on the page, deleting the {Citation} placeholder, then opening it again and doing things the right way. While I loathe…

Well, I've migrated from a Mendeley 1.8 setup (which I had downgraded from the latest 1.9.x dev beta earlier), after I installed the latest Zotero beta so I could get the Safari 13 extension, but am using the latest stable version (as per your instr…

I should add my two cents as a Mac user: don't forget all the rumours that have been swirling around about some upcoming Mac models based on Apple-designed Ax processors… Those computers would be an absolute hit, as they would likely be much cheaper…
