Thanks Adam - very helpful. Automatic updating is turned off - I'll switch that on. I've cleared duplicates recently but 3 is possible in some instances.
-
Thanks Adam. I didn't realise about emptying trash - done that and this seems to have done the trick. My second point - I assume in normal cases to delete an attachment I should do this from within Zotero to prevent the database from getting corru…
-
Thanks. Never thought to look in the gear icon settings as it's displayed the icon automatically in all previous installations!
-
Further info re Zetoc: - an email from the provider says Zetoc is accessible via subscription to organizations other than those UK Higher Education for which it is free - they have fixed a Z39.50 configuration issue - and it is now possible to d…

Thanks. I don't recall which site did this for me. I noticed it when tidying up entries. I'll report in future if I find any.

Thanks
-
Thanks. I'll do that. I've been updating with the server copy of Zotero and the status of this file has not changed, so it looks like a stray file.
-
Not systematically - I just noticed it for the one item. (I tend not to keep the pdfs in Zotero so as not to use server space, but use the facility to automatically obtain a copy where possible). I'm guessing it's just a stray file, stray files shou…

At last! After removing and reinstalling OO3 and the integration I noticed the paths were: file:///C:/Program%20Files/OpenOffice.org%3/URE/java/ and file:///C:/Program%20Files/OpenOffice.org%3/program/ when they should have been ...Open…
-
Thanks - tried that but didn't work. I think there's a more serious error somewhere.
-
Simon Thanks. I tried manually editing the paths using Browse, and direct manual editing - it made no difference. In OpenOffice (Win) there are no Zotero icons - when I click Reinstall OpenOffice.org components (with the correct paths) I always…
-
Which paths? The ones in the Integration Preferences panel? Mine are incorrect but when I amend them and then click to reinstall the add-on I just get "Zotero OpenOffice Integration could not complete installation because an error occurred. Please e…

Update - Zotero is working with Word 2007 so maybe it's an OO3.3 problem.
-
This seems to have resolved itself as it's not there today.

Have you checked all your entries for Lewis? I find if there are variations (e.g. D L Lewis; D Lewis; David L Lewis) these get treated as different authors when you cite what's the same author to you, and (logically) they get distinguished by includ…

I'm also getting a "Could not save item" message attempting to save a citation from Business Source Premier / EBSCO Host. The first time the Zotero Report Errors function shows: [JavaScript Error: "TypeError: text.match(/T1\s+-\s*(.*)/) is null" {fi…

Thanks Dan - I'll try that. (I'm trying a first sync - but I have a large database so I guess it'll take a long time).
-
I notice that different scripts are involved - just now Script: chrome://zotero/content/xpcom/data/item.js:4557 Should I Stop the script, or click on Continue? As I have no idea what the implications of either option are I'm a little in the dar…

One way to manage duplicates more easily might be if you can see which Collection an item's in. When I import from RefWorks, Zotero creates an Imported collection. If I could see which collection an item is in, then if there's a duplicate, and it's…
-
That seems to be it! I log into forums using my email address - and was using the first part of the email instead of the Zotero username. My fault. Thanks for you help.
-
Tried that - still no joy. I've recorded the debug output if that's any help (how to send it to you?).
-
Thanks Dan - it makes no difference. I just changed to the username only, restarted FFox but get the same error. I've tried retyping several times so I'm sure there's no typo. I'm using FF 3.5 which sometimes behaves a little strangely in other…
