I would like to move the "Mendeley Desktop" folder on my Mac from "Documents" to another permanent location (my user folder on the same level as "Documents" and "Downloads") and rename it. I like to keep my "Documents" folder relatively sparse and free of items that I don't need to access every day.
How do I do this?
Thanks!

Intente abrir Mendeley Desktop y me salio el error:
Another application has your Mendeley database open. Closing the other program or logging out of your computer may fix the problem.
A temporary empty database has been created instead. Any changes made will not be saved. Your existing data has been left intact.
Consulté en internet y la sugerencia era hacer un reset de la base de datos buscando la base en el disco;no obstante, Ubuntu no me dejo borrar los archivos. Desinstale e reinstale Mendeley y el problema persiste.
¿Alguna solución?

Documents are not added to Mendeley desktop
The newly added documents are present in my library in the online account, but are not added to my Mendeley desktop.
It is like that from 3 weeks now.
No problems are appearing after Sync.
The only thing I did was deleting replicates.

program keeps freezing
When I open Mendeley it will let me either open papers, change folders, or click the file/edit/view/go/tools/help buttons. However, once I have done one or two of these things, it will not let me do anything else. For example, if I open Mendeley it immediately shows one of my sub-folders. I can then either double click on a paper within that folder to open it, or change folders. If I change folders, I can no longer click on any of the papers I see, even if I then change back to the original folder I was in. Clicking on the papers does nothing, there is no response. Nor can I then click on Help or File or anything, though I can keep changing folders as much as I want.
I am running Mendeley desktop version 1.11 on a 64 bit Windows 7 machine. I have reinstalled Mendeley once and that had no effect.

Mendeley fails to restore
Dear agent,
Please help! Today I've tried to restore a backup I manually made a couple of days ago, but it does not work... In Mendeley desktop I go to: Help - restore - backup and select the backup I need. Then a pop-up screen appears saying:
"Checking backup files..." and then
"Deleting your server data..."
This hasn't changed over the last few hours. I to restore a couple of times but the program seems to be stuck/crash. Do I do something wrong?
Please help me, I really need that backup.
Kind regards,
Evelien

Selective fields in word bibliography and reference settings
Hi,
I have two problems I could not solve alone:
1. the first and main problem is that in the word bibliography I get for several references fields which I would like not to be reported, such as the URL (regardless of the style). I am used to do this manually, which implies I have to redo it manually every time I refresh. Is there a way to modify the fields indicated permanently?
2. Is there a way to permanently substitute "&" with "and" in the word reference?
Thank you for your help in advance
Best regards,
Stefano

suggestion about ipad application
Hi
This is just a suggestion as a loyal user of mendeley. I always read pdf on my ipad, including highlights and marks. Yet I found Mendeley app. is hard to use. In this case, the app called "pdf-note" is really great application to read pdfs on ipad. It also provides a service to connect web-clouds, such as google drive or dropbox. I can always go back and save and recall pdf files.
I strongly suggest that you guys should cooperate with pdf-note application. It will be great for scholars! Thanks.

Papers in watched folder not added
Greetings,
I have seen similar questions posted here, but found no resolution that seemed applicable in my case.
Some information on what I'm running:
Mac OSX 10.9.3
Mendeley Desktop 1.11
In Mendeley Desktop preferences I have only one watched folder set to: /Users/tmd/Dropbox/Paper Dump. When I first open Mendeley, it will recognize any papers that are new in that folder and add them to my library appropriately. However, if Mendeley is already *running* and I add a .pdf to that folder, it does *not* add it, or even recognized its existence.
If I go into preferences and un-watch the folder (Apply) then re-watch the folder it will then add the .pdf as it should. Similarly if I close Mendeley and re-open Mendeley it will add the new .pdf as it should. However, in the context of reading and adding references, this is a giant pain. Is there a solution to this? Thank you.

References in footnotes
Hello,
I am writing a document where I need to put the refs in footnotes.
Now, I created a "ghost" footnote (i set the color of the text as white) with Word, and used the "Insert Bibliography" in the footnote, and this works. The problem is that even if the biblio gets big, it doesn't split the footnote going to the following page, but it keeps putting the refs into the footnote on the first page.
Do you know how I can fix it to have my refs into footnotes on each page?
Thanks and greetings.
