In any case, thanks to them for trying.įwiw, I still have to use Firefox to access this forum. That's understandable with a Beta release, but, the developers should be aware of this erratic behavior, in order to be able to fix it. Moreover, when I went back to a tab that on first inspection showed the icon with the bar, it had changed to the icon with lines, but still did nothing. Other tabs showed an icon of a page with a turned down corner and lines suggesting text that also did nothing, and others showed that same icon but actually worked. Some tabs of a particular page of a journal site of interest, which always worked flawlessly in the (now rather distant) past, showed an icon with a turned down corner and a bar across the bottom that offered nothing beyond Customize Toolbar. The preceding item suggested a reboot, so I did that. Even in well-supported sites, like PubMed, no icon for access to Zotero appears at all. Per habit, when Zotero offered an update, I installed it. On the other matter, I have again had to go to Firefox to participate in this forum - same behavior in Safari as reported above. Installing the Zotero Connector for Firefox, Chrome, or Safari (If you have come back to this part of the tutorial without completing the preceding part/s, create a separate working window using this link. So, regarding the non-active Z icon, no trouble found at present. Perhaps I was on some other source page when I encountered the earlier problem (non-active Z icon only), though these are the main sources I've been using. Strange thing is I do not think I've done any software update in the last two days that could account for the change in behavior of the connector. This is a nuisance, but not I think new to the Beta. Reluctantly, I resort to a familiar pattern, copy the title and paste it into Google Scholar, then click on the connector there and it gets populated correctly into MyLibrary. Fwiw, the entry has several shortcomings, including not identifying authors. Again the page with the turned corner icon, again worked to put an entry into MyLibrary. Sensing it likely that it is source page dependent, I next checked an article presented on ResearchGate. Now I find that the button in Safari for the connector appears as a page with a turned down corner, if I search in PubMed, and it works appropriately.
