Hello, I tried to migrate my mendeley-database from one computer to another. First I copied the folder with all pdfs to the new computer, then installed mendeley and logged in. The database was downloaded neatly but most of the links to the local pdf-files are gone. I then tried to copy the sqlite-database between the two mendeley-installations - same effect. I have now +3000 pdfs which are not linked in my mendeley-database anymore. Can you help me? Greetings, Dominik

Importing issues and duplicate references

$

I signed onto Mendeley recently and am still deciding on which program to go with: Mendeley or Zotero. My research collaborator and I will eventually pay for whichever service we choose. We like many of the features of your product, but we are very unhappy with the inconsistency with which the program imports information from pdfs. We keep getting the "Cannot detect bibliographic metadata" message and then have to put the information in ourselves. The other major issue is the number of duplicate references. The program seems incapable of detecting when a reference already exists, and we ended up with an unreasonably large number of identical references when importing pdfs from various places; it seems particularly bad with dragging and dropping references. In looking carefully at the references, in many cases, we cannot find a single difference in the citations; this issue is NOT arising b/c we are manually inserting the references.

Hi all, Every time that I try to set up the "Watch Folder" feature Mendeley breaks down - it stops responding and I have to close the program as soon as I open the "Watch folder" pop-up. I tried setting this up through the 'Add file' menu and 'Tools - Options - Watch folder' and neither works. I've uninstalled and re installed the program but it is still happening. Thanks in advance.

I am getting the same error today: When I try to edit a citation style (View-Citation Styles-More Styles, select a style, right click and Edit) the page loads party and stops with the error "Cannot fetch style: http://www.zotero.org/styles/vancouver (Error: 503) Please select a different style to edit." Do you know if the network is down?

Sharing Copyrighted Articles - what gives you the right to share?

$

In the support section of this website, Mendeley gives this advice: "If you wish to share any version of a journal article within a Private Group or to post any version of a journal article publicly in My Publications, you need to ensure that you have the right to share that version." I would like to ask, what conditions give you the right to share an article as part of a private group? Do all members have to have institutional access to all articles uploaded? Does the owner have to have institutional access? Does the uploader have to have institutional access? At the moment this is unclear and I need guidance about how to organise my work and documents.

Updating fields

I am having trouble updating my citation and bibliography fields. I am using PLoS One citation style which numbers citations and when I delete certain citations I need to update all of the numbers and bibliography. This is not happening when I click refresh and when I click citations to edit them I am getting an error "field code changed" ? HELP! This is very frustrating and it would be so time consuming to do this all by hand.

Merge duplicates bug - conflicting fields

$

I am deduplicating my Mendeley library having recently moved from Zotero (2000+ duplicates. I have noticed the same behaviour as this previous report. "Merge duplicates bug - conflicting fields Phillip Anderson Jan 25, 2013 12:37PM GMT" I scrolled down the list of duplicates generates, merging all those with "No conflicting fields", reaching the end having eliminated them all. On scolling back up, I notice that there were new sets which had had conflicting fields and were now classified as "no conflicting fileds". The number of sets this occurred on was large, about every 4th or 5th one and is mostly, but not exclusively related to the "date accessed" field or "tags". Oddly, if you scoll up and down repeatedly over the same set, sometimes it displays "no conflicting fields" and other times "Duplicates have conflicting fields". I have screen capture of one such example (a shot of the screen showing conflicting and one shown no conflicting fields)should you wish to investigate. It might also be useful to be able to select fileds to exclude from the duplicates matching (e.g. date accessed)and maybe automatically merge all sets with no conflicting fields rather than having to do it manually. I am using Windows 7, if that helps.

Good afternoon, I have noticed in the last one week that all my highlighted text are erased and the pdf also not accessible after shutting down my computer. I have been saving items in the last 1 month by downloading pdfs onto my desktop and dragging into mendeley and opening and highlighting texts and so far so good. However in the last one week what I have been noticed is that after shutting my computer and opening it all I see is a yellow box near there authors name. I have tried restoring backup but all to no avail. Could you please be of help.

pdf files for download in "My publications" missing

$

On Mendeley web, none of the papers in the "My publications" folder has an attached pdf file that would be available for public download (even though we check the box that no copyright issues exist when moving these manuscripts into this folder). I would have liked to use Mendeley to give interested people access to my papers (and accordingly have uploaded the respective versions of the manuscripts, e.g. postprints where applicable), but this does not seem to work. BTW, it does not matter if articles have a DOI or not, or have been published in open access journals such as PLoS. How can this be fixed?

Updating Styles

Whenever I try to update a style from within Mendeley Desktop (Version 1.12-dev4, Windows 7), Mendeley Desktop crashes. I end up having to search for each individual style, go back and forth between the "Installed" tab and the "Get More Styles" tab to see if a given style has an update, and re-install any style that does have an update. It's very tedious. Additionally, the functionality to update all installed styles with the click of one button would be marvelous, as opposed to right-clicking each individual installed style to update it from the context menu, provided this functionality works in the future. Thanks.
