Hi,
I updated my Mendeley Desktop to 1.12.1 this morning, and I am now unable to use the advanced search - for example, typing 'author:' into the search bar gives the error 'Unable to search for "author:" in "All Documents".' There's buttons which are labelled 'Repair' and 'Clear', but they don't seem to do anything.
Thanks for your help,
Josh

Bug Report - Filter by Publications shows Partial Matches Along with Full Matches
When I filter by publications on the left side bar, and choose a journal whose title is a single word, it will show all the journals whose name contains that word (partial matches).
I feel that filtering by publication should show exact matches only.
This problem still exists, described in this two-year-old post: http://support.mendeley.com/customer/portal/questions/633734-bug-report-filter-by-publications-shows-partial-matches-along-with-full-matches

Import from PubMed
Hi. I have a problem importing from PubMed. Today I did succeed once, but when I was going to continue the "Could not detect bibliographic metadata. Create metadata below to enhance the quality of this resource" comes up and under Tags it says Enter tags here.
What can I do?. I'm just starting to do an systematic literature review, so this is a major problem for me.

MS Word plugin communication
Hello,
I have Mendeley desktop and MS Word 2010 working together perfectly for two years and suddenly they have lost communication. I have uninstalled and re-installed the MS Word plugin but nothing happened. The messages I get are:
Mendeley: "There was a problem setting up Word plugin communication: The address is protected"
MS Word: "Unable to start Mendeley Desktop automatically: connection refused"
I get that message even I manually start Mendeley Desktop.
What went wrong?
Thanks in advance

Compile Error
I have been inundated with the request to update my version. Which first of all was very annoying. Then when I did do it I am now unable to insert any citation or reference into my study document as it keeps giving me the "Compile error". This at the critical part of my Thesis study. So now I am unable to to use Mendely at all. I even tried several routes to reinstall and older version but unsuccessfull since none is available. I find this quite unacceptable and extremely frustating.
My question therefore is where do I find the option to download an older version so that I can continue to use Mendeley? Or when will you sort out this problem which you are well aware of by now?

1.12.1 keeps crashing in OSx
Just upgraded to 1.12.1. I am on a 32 bit Mac with OSx 10.9.2 with an i5 chip.
Since upgrading, Mendeley will last about 30sec to a minute, then give an unexpected error message. At this point, Mendeley will keep running but will randomly have a hard freeze sometime in the next 30min or so - this could be anywhere from immediately after the error message to 20min later. I haven't noticed any pattern to when it happens - sometimes adding a file will be what finally does it, sometimes trying to cite a file in word will do it, sometimes trying to edit a files information will do it. But whenever it does happen, the only way out is to force quit Mendeley and then reopen it.

Manually inserting reference
Hi,
Can I get the reference written out (preferably in Harvard style) straight off the Mendeley desktop or Mendeley web and manually insert it into my Word doc.? My Microsoft Word reference tab has malfunctioned and so it won't let me do it the usual way.
Thanks

Lost Citations
I entered about 45-50 citations into Mendeley on September 2, but when I went to add more citations today the ones from September 2 did not show up like all of the other citations I've added every week for about 5 months. Our group owner searched the archives and couldn't find them either. I'm quite sure I synced my entries a few different times on Sept.2. A few days ago my computer crashed and I got back all of my data from other parts of my computer. But anyway, I thought my Mendeley entries would be saved somewhere other than in my computer.
So, do you know what could have happened to my Sept. 2 entries and how I might be able to find them? I really don't want to have to enter them all a second time. Thanks for any help you can give me.

watch folder improperly importing citation
I set up a Watch Folder and whenever I save a PDF document to that location, Mendeley does not properly import any of the citation (author, title, year,etc) and asks to review the details. But if I manually drag the same PDF (from the same folder), it does properly import the citation. Please help as it seems the Watch Folder is useless

Importing PDF file from Google Scholar or Plosone
Hi,
I plugged in "save to mendeley" in my brower.
I found open access article , of course free PDF file, and saved into mendeley.
however, reference only was saved into my mendeley desktop. Not PDF file saved.
Strangely, after I clicked to "sync" , i was able to see PDF file in my library on mendleye web version. And then, i can see PDF file in my desktop version.
Should I click to "sync" every time to see PDF file ???
If you don't understand what I am asking, i'd like to send you a screen shot. Please advise how to send a screen shot file to you.
