You have to give more information on your system: Windows, Mac, Linux? And on your Firefox version. And on your Zotfile version. Otherwise we're stabbing in the dark here.

I installed zotfile and it works nicely but I encountered a bug that maybe someone has an answer to.

@sidies: zotfile works with Zotero 3.0b, I am using it myself... the duplicates detection also works fine with it (in 3.0, the 'debugShowDuplicates' preference was removed). So it seems to be only a

sidies - note that Zotero now has a fully working and enabled duplicate detection (and merge!) feature in the 3.0b - I thought I remember people saying that Zotfile worked with the beta, but someone w

I tried the experimental but extremely useful duplicates removal option [extensions.zotero.debugShowDuplicates] and zotfile stopped working. When I clicked on "change name" or "push to reader", nothin

Thanks Mark. However when I try to download the zotfile reader plugin it again goes into dropbox. Any idea how I can circumvent this?

The iPad is a closed system. Apple controls what can be installed. Most applications cannot be installed. However, you can edit your Zotero library using the web interface (http://www.zotero.org/youru
