I'm using Word for Mac Version 16.103.2 (25112216).

What exact version of Word? Do you have any other add-ins installed in Word?

I'm using MS Word on a Mac with the Zotero plugin. I'm trying to put a reference in the text.

Does this happen in a new, empty document? If so, can you provide a Debug ID for reproducing it? If not, see Troubleshooting Errors in Word Processor Documents.

Zotero generates the links in the bibliography as plain text rather than as hyperlinks, so in the Word document they need to be updated manually.

No, you should reset the location of your Word Startup folder in the Word settings.

我先跟着bilibili上找的教程下了zotero，在word的上方可以显示。但是我发现不能引用文献，是因为没打开运行宏，我又下了vba，但是是从网盘上下载的，去试了一下好用。等我关掉再打开就发现word上的zotero不见了，想去重新加载一直弹出来

Zotero citations are simply Word fields, and any that are active (i.e., haven't been accidentally or intentionally flattened) would show in gray as long as you have Word field shading enabled.

How do I know if a citation is linked in Zotero or simply typed in, in a Word document. Previously, if you cursored over it - it turned grey. Now it only turns grey when the citation is cited for th

Whenever you open document preferences, Zotero gets information about all fields in the document. When you select MHRA, Zotero is still waiting for Microsoft Word to return a list of fields, and until

What version of Word are you running (In Word press File -> Account -> About Word)?

And please, cut the hints for "most apps don't do that anymore" because that is the definition of a Red Herring... even WORD manages to TELL YOU what document you have opened... see how this is an inv

I have done as advised & renamed Normal.dotm.bak & relaunched Word, issue still happening.

I see. With a new document it works fine. But that's not typical with a dissertation, so I have created some test documents of 50k words with 900 references (so about half what my final doc will be).

You can provide Debug ID for an operation that fails from Zotero and we may be able to help, but otherwise you will have to follow the Troubleshooting Errors in Word Processor Documents steps.

and created a folder called “Word for Mac Integration” (which did not exist before)

I’m trying to use Zotero with Microsoft Word 365 on my MacBook Pro (latest macOS version). Zotero is installed, but the Word plugin does not appear in Word.

This effectively means that you would have to reinsert every citation with Zotero again, if you want Zotero to manage them for you in this document. Otherwise now they are just plain text in Word.
