  • To uninstall the plugin, all you have to do is to remove the Zotero.dot file from the startup folder of Word. You can either just search your hard drive for Zotero.dot, or look for it in the right folder: Where to find this plugin file under Wi…

  • If you also have other things in Firefox that you would like to transfer (like bookmarks, stored passwords, history, etc.), you can also use MozBackup: http://mozbackup.jasnapaka.com/ This utility can back up (and restore) installed plugin…
  • I don't think there is currently such a feature. Although you could of course use tags for this purpose: http://www.zotero.org/documentation/getting_the_most_out_of_tags
  • But those will use the same installers, or won't they?
  • A related problem is that when I went to reinstall the plugin I get the screen that shows you the progress of the installation, it tells me that it was installed completely, but the progress bar doesn't finish loading. Could this be why I am not get…
  • I have a similar problem with both the jbc.csl and jbact.csl styles. They both won't collapse citations (so it remains "(2, 1, 3, 4)") in my Word document, although the preview panel of chrome://zotero/content/tools/csledit.xul does group citations …
  • Try selecting the text of which you want to flatten the fields, and press CMD + Shift + F9.
  • I wouldn't be very happy with Zotero cluttering the Firefox download manager. I think an animation of the Zotero-logo in the status bar (or a separate animation next to it) would be the handiest option. That way you can still see when Zotero finishe…
  • When I try to download papers from Interscience-Wiley, I get a translation error: http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/journal/109582192/abstract [JavaScript Error: "this._sandbox.doWeb is not a function" {file: "chrome://zotero/content/xpco…
  • I just thought of another case were the ability to sync files via local storage would be very handy. Imagine that you have prepared a Zotero collection at home with 500 MB worth of files. If you then want to sync that collection with your Zotero ins…
  • My request was about sharing/syncing files, instead of the storage of files within a local copy Zotero. Within my research group, files are mostly shared via network drives, instead of via any WebDAV solutions. In this setting, it would be easiest, …
  • I assume the "user-defined storage" options will also include storage on local or network drives?
  • I'm getting an error while syncing a library (copied from a 1.0.6 installation). Syncing to the server goes okay from one copy of Firefox. Getting it from the server from another copy doesn't work. ErrorID: 462652855
  • Dear ajjaialva, How exactly did you try to insert citations in your Word document? Was it via the Zotero toolbar? If your installation failed, I wouldn't expect Word to show the Zotero plugin toolbar. Did you also make sure to close Word before…
  • I can't get Zotero to scrap the pages of Interscience as well (error report 768407614). http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/journal/81502216/abstract?CRETRY=1&SRETRY=0
  • Zotero does not (yet) support searching in literature databases. But in case you use NCBI's PubMed, you could use their My NCBI service to receive literature updates by email. Some other databases offer similar services.
  • If I read the scrapers.sql file correctly the citation data is retrieved from pubmed's XML-output. In that case getting the journal abbreviation from the field "Appl. Environ. Microbiol." instead of the field "Appl Environ Microbiol" would solve the…
  • What was that other add-on?
  • Another mention of Word 97: http://www.zotero.org/documentation/plugins
  • I have this problem on two systems, one with Word 2007 and Windows XP, and one with Word 2003 and Windows XP.
  • Just to be sure, did you restart Firefox after disabling all other add-ons? In addition, you could try what happens if you create a new profile: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Managing+profiles
  • I did some quick research with Google. The conclusion: Word doesn't provide a menu option to flatten fields (because of this, other programs like Endnote X contain an extra icon in their toolbar for this purpose). If you wish to read a bit more abou…
  • Anything that's trying to locate Zotero.dot in the EndNote program directory is terribly confused. Except when Endnote has set the startup directory of Word to "C:\programfiles\Endnote 9\". dmichon, could you look up the startup folder for Microsof…
  • Have you tried installing the Zotero plugin with Word and Endnote closed?
  • Word 97 is also mentioned here: http://www.zotero.org/documentation/windows_word_plugin_manual_installation_instructions

  • For my installation of Word 2007, with the security level set to "Disable all macros with notification", I don't get any notifications regarding the use of the macro. Are you sure you have installed the plugin in the correct folder (the location of …
  • The current documentation lists Word 97 as being supported, but as far as I know that assumption was based on a single user report (http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/354/). This user mentioned that he/she didn't fully test the plugin (maybe he/she…
  • I presume you have a backup of the old OSX installation? If so, you can import your Zotero data and files by following the instructions after the link: http://www.zotero.org/documentation/frequently_asked_questions#how_do_i_back_up_my_zotero_li…
