Does anyone know if the Zotero Quick Look extension is still being maintained? I tried installing it from the link on zotero.org and also from Mozilla, but hit the new Mozilla extension-signing wall. I also tried the "no-unpack" XPI and install…

No, I think you've covered all I can think of for now. I'll go with the Zotero public group library for now, and see if I want to work up anything more complicated later. Much appreciated.

Sorry, English is my first language, but one wouldn't always know that :-) I want to make the bibliography from a paper accessible, preferably with "click-through" links via URL or DOI to the official online sources. I read quite a number of "f…
-
Thanks for all the info. If I understand @adamsmith correctly, the info from {:name: value} will be accessible in CSL (provided "name" is a valid CSL variable). Correct?
-
Thanks @bwiernik, that's helpful. And I look forward to the DOI being clickable on the website. In the meantime I can put the doi.org into the URL and then users of the group can click through (if I don't give the PDF as an attachment, or in a …

There are also the old standby's of turning off auto-sync (do it manually when you go for lunch, or to sleep, depending on how big your collection and slow your machine), and closing the tag browser. Personally I've found Firefox+Zotero to be the …

Since there may be, hopefully temporary, issues with Box, why not try a different WebDAV service? https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/webdav_services

Zotero and MS Word's bibliography are totally separate things. In my experience Word's own bibliography manager is entirely unreliable, buggy and gets a great deal of the formatting wrong. Personally, I advise my students never to use it. I don't …

I get this message (in English) from time to time, also using box.com, but syncing has worked fine for me. If you don't have "Sync Automatically" set then did you click on the Sync icon - the circular green arrow, third from the right on the top Z…

I believe that at the moment there's no "easy" way to do batch edits: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/37687/edit-multiple-references/ Based on that link it seems you can do what you want if you write a little JavaScript. Way back in Zote…

APA to my knowledge has always been an (author, date) style citation format. (I think it's now in its 5th or 6th edition). The ones that use numbering as your instructions specify are usually mathematics or science oriented. adamsmith listed a few o…

Thanks yes - though I've looked through the debug output and think it's the same. I'll see what happens with the new account and work from there.
-
re aurimas' comment - I checked the /dav/zotero setting, and it is in fact correct (now anyway, and sync still fails the same way). To test things further I signed up for second free account on Box and set Zotero to sync files to that account. …

Now I get an error when I try to "verify server" - there's an error report submitted with Debug ID D760565791.

Yes, I had changed from www.box.com to dav.box.com a few months ago, and all was fine (though slower). I have about 5600 items, and 3.5Gb in storage. I did just pass 10,000 files in box.com - could that be the problem?
-
I'd agree with aurimas' response above. What jdblue is asking for would be analogous to creating "citations" at text locations as one read a PDF or HTML article. That's not the model of any bibliographic software that I know of. To do this sort of t…

Re 4shared and ryandserias's comment above, I see that they've just "truncated" my zotero collection to 5K files! This must be a pretty recent restriction, as I had 7.5K files (or some 4K Zotero items) a couple of days ago. Their FAQ implies no…
-
I've been using 4shared for a couple of years now - having run out of space at cloud.me - with no problems at all. Since 4shared gives 15GB, I assume you must be hitting the 2GB file size limit that's mentioned in the table above? I did have some la…

I've used an probably even less elegant solution: I edit the note so it has the title or author of the article as its first line, and then filter in the search field, so that I have a manageably short list to drag and drop within.

There's also still MIT's Citeline. Export from Zotero as BibTEX and import into Citeline http://simile.mit.edu/wiki/Citeline_FAQ#What_will_Citeline_do_for_me.3F It produces HTML which you can link to or embed in your own site.

Personally I've had very good experience with the Duplicates function - I suppose it may depend on the nature of your citation database (I don't usually keep multiple versions of an item, e.g. conference paper, working paper, journal paper, and peop…

If you've more than 500 attachments, have you checked ? forums.zotero.org/discussion/14130/recommended-webdav-services/ icloud seems a workable (free) alternative, or zotero storage.

There are some documented problems with mydrive.ch - see, for example http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/14144/impending-doom-as-mydrivech-splits-my-files-across-multiple-folders/ and the other threads mentioned there. I'm not sure that…

That's plenty good enough an answer for me! I should write a (long) list of broken WebDAV services ;-( Thanks again Dan.
-
Well you can "export item as ..." to get the selected items in various structured forms (RDF, BibTex etc.). You need to check the box "Include Notes". I suspect, however, you're looking for something more human-readable - try "generate report f…

My understanding is that PDF's "imported into" Zotero are indexed and searchable in Zotero, whereas linked PDF's are not. That's another useful advantage if so, IMHO.
-
Thanks much - that worked perfectly. Must have slept through that section of the "Word for Dummies" course ;-( Curiously, selecting "Macros" in "Customize the Quick Access Bar" doesn't show any selectable commands - but the shortcuts were the m…

What adamsmith is suggesting is to check things out step by step: (1) In FF do Tools>Add-ons>Extensions You should see Zotero 2.0 and Zotero Winword Integration 3.0a3. Do you ? (Does she ?) (2) If these are listed, then click Zo…

I've seen people be confused by Office 2007 in general (!) - and in particular that the Zotero controls are under the "Add-Ins" tab (rather than a toolbar, as they were with Word 2003/2004). I didn't check to see whether the Zotero documentation m…

@kiwicomposer But it works fine (I'm using FF 3.6, Z 2.0) if you go to the "overview" link in Google Books: http://books.google.com/books?id=RsvdGY9VFLUC&source=gbs_navlinks_s The Zotero icon in the address bar is indicative in that ca…
