Hi, I've using Mendeley for just a few weeks, every went great, until yesterday i realised that only 1/5 of my papers were on my custom folder. I set up Mendeley to sort my papers in a more accesible folder (D:\Mendeley) but the majority of my documents are still on C:\Users\Marion\AppData\Local\Mendeley Ltd\Mendeley Desktop\Downloaded. I hace tryed to sync my library several times and i even re-installed the program. I'm working on a laptop and im using Windows 7. Also my harddrive is "divided" into two virtual drives (C: and D:). Any help would be really aprecciated. PS: English is not my mother lenguaje so feel free to ask for more details that werent that clear due to my grammar or vocabulary. Thanks!!

Incorrect formatting for in-text citations using Word Plug-in

Hi. I am currently experiencing an issue using the Word Plug-in to insert in- text citations using the American Psychological Association style. For some citations (not all), the authors' names are formatted incorrectly. Specifically, some citations show up as (D.A. Smith, Johnson, & Jackson, 2011) instead of the correct format (Smith, Johnson, & Jackson, 2011). How do I fix this? FYI I have been using the Word plug-in for several months and never had this issue until about 1-2 weeks ago. Thanks in advance, Chris

Could someone please correct the bibliography format for J. Chrom. A for the MS word plugin? It should not include journal titles in the format. Most would not think to use the Elsevier (numeric, without titles format as an alternative). I was close to switching software just because of this issue.

search function not working

When I type anything into the search bar on my mendeley desktop program (on the computer I use at work), I get the response "no results" no matter what text is entered. This is true even if I click on the magnifying glass and enter in an author's name (Author:____). I was previously able to use the search function without any issues. The search function still works fine on my personal computer where I have Mendeley desktop synced to the same library.

Chicago 16th Author-Date - In-text citation problem

$

Hello, The style "Chicago 16th Author-Date" has a weird behavior regarding in-text citations. In a given Word document, some references are correctly cited (Surname year) while others include the initial letters of the names (A. B. Surname year). Moreover, the same reference may be correctly cited in a Word document but not in other document. How can I solve this? The problem happens with Windows platform and Microsoft Office. Citations are always fine with Linux platform and LibreOffice. Thanks in advance, Natalia

Download folder

Hi, Yet another question about the download folder. I enabled the "wacthed folder" option and the "" folder as well (as a subfolder of the "watched folder"), but too late. A massive amount of pdfs has already been downloaded to the default Mendeley download folder. What happens if I move all those pdfs to the "new" folder ? Will the references be lost ? Will they all become duplicates ? I just want all pdfs to be stored at the same place, whether they have been dowloaded from Mendeley directly or they come from another source and were imported in Mendeley. Thank you.

Inline Citation Not in Alphabetical Order

I am having an issue with Mendeley not ordering the inline citations alphabetically. I followed the directions to fix the order issue in Visual CSL Editor, but I continued to have ordering issues. The citation style I am using did not have a sort node under the inline citations area, so I added one. The ordering remained the same as before the change I made; citations were ordered by the order I added them rather than by the order of author last names. Thanks

Changing citation style

Hello. I need to change the citation style from MEPS to PLOS ONE, in Word 2010. I selected "PLOS ONE" in Mendeley Cite-o-matic, the references list now appears numbered and in cited order, but nothing changed in citations throughout the text (author and year should have been replaced by numbers). I've clicked "refresh", closed and reopened Word. What's wrong?

Hello, I want to add the 'Pubmed ID number' and the Pubmed URL to the Bibliography layout in a reference style. Essentially, I want the reference to display the authors, title, publisher, vol and page reference and the Pubmed ID and Pubmed URL of each paper in the library. Please advise on how I can do this. I need this modification urgently. Alternatively, is there a way to import an Endnote Style file into Mendeley? Thanks, Dr. Shefali Sabharanjak

Hello, I just installed a new OS - I didn't backup Mendeley and my storage in Web was not enough for doing it. I have all the files in the older /home folder that I kept in the HD - so, my question are: 1 - Can I restore the Mendeley I had? 2 - Did I lost all the annotations, etc? Hope to hear from you soon! Thank you, Gabriel
