I am trying to insert a reference into MS word 2010. The reference that I am trying to add is for a textbook. I had to manually create the reference in mendeley, not through the save to mendeley shortcut that I use for most of the literature articles. I have not been able to get the reference to go from mendeley to MS word.
Thank You

Same bibliography in different files
I'm working on a paper and need to include two tables with the paper. Due to orientation differences (landscape vs portrait) I have them as separate files to work with MSWord for MAC.
I would like to use the same numbering for the references in the tables as the main text of the document.
I've been reading through the knowledge base but cannot find a solution and/or I'm not using the correct nomenclature.

creating folders in a shared group
We have a shared group that contains all of our documents. However, we want to create a subfolder within that group to better organize our references. As the group administrator, I cannot figure out how to create a subfolder in our shared library. Suggestions?

Sync stuck?
I am trying out Mendeley. Imported a collection of 1000+ items from another reference manager.
Initiated a sync with the web portal. The sync seem to have uploaded the database OK, and is now stuck on "retrieving documents" although there are no documents to retrieve. Please advise.
Mac OS X, 10.9.1, latest Mendeley desktop installed today.

Abstract shown
Why is that Mendeley does not show the abstract text on the side bar (details folder) when I click once in an article from my library. That happens sometimes with some of the articles.
Thanks.

Mendeley MS Word plugin will not work on Mac
Hi,
I'm using MS Word 14.1.4 with Mendeley 1.10.3 on OS X 10.6.8.
I've uninstalled and re-installed the plugin several times. Mendeley opens and works fine but there is no toolbar in Word and I can't find anything to do with Mendeley anywhere in Word.
I use Mendeley with my PC also and it works fine - the problem is just on my Mac.
Thanks.

numbered citation in text
We need to write our masters thesis and we need to refer following a (slightly modified) Vancouver Style.
This means that citing in the text need to be done by numbers subsequentially as they appear in the text. Like this:
Blablabla and bla bla.[6] or
Bla bla bla and bla.[5,18,48] or
Bla blabla.[5-14]
How can we do this with mendeley? If we try it now,we always get the author's name and publication date.

Problem with paper if author's name contains "á"
I have a problem with the archiving of the following paper:
1995_Novák_Electrochemical Insertion of Magnesium into Hydrated Vanadium Bronzes_Journal of The Electrochemical Society
Although the right PDF is linked in the program, it keeps showing "Unable to open this file"
My guess is that it is linked to the authors name having a dash. If I change "Novák" to "Novak", it works. Is there some way to fix that? I'd like to have the citations correct of course, however if the filename does not contain dashes, it would be totally fine.

Journal Citations
I want to download citations of all the articles from an issue of a journal. Is this possible, or would I have to go to the journal and select all articles one by one?
Thanks!

Error opening "mendeleydesktop --force-bundled-qt"

When I try with the command "mendeleydesktop --force-bundled-qt" it shows the following error:

Some Authors in Bibliography are shown as "---"
Hello!
My problem is that some authors are not shown in the bibliography, meaning all authors of that paper are replaced with "---" (see below). The authors should have been entered correctly as other papers from them appear correctly cited in the bibliography. This happens for single, double and multiple author papers... any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

Article title limit
Hello Mendeley,
I've seen that this issue was raised a couple of times in 2012 but I just wanted to bring it up again as I'm so surprised this is the case. Why can't the character limit be removed?

MS Word crashes when using Mendeley Desktop and MS Word Plugin
I am also getting this error that has been posted many other places, without any answer, however!
When opening Word and Mendeley Desktop, Word started to crash. I have been using both for several months without problems. It started happening after I merged documents with Mendeley references into a single one. Not only does Word crash all the time if Mendeley Desktop is running, every time I try to edit a citation, I need to delete the citation already there and re-enter it. New citations are okay.
When using an external monitor as well, Mendeley had problems if the MS Word Toolbar was not on the same screen as the active Word document. If I moved the toolbar to the active screen, it worked (now it crashes before I have time to insert a reference).
All is up to date! Removed Mendeley Toolbar from MS Word and now it doesn't crash. But I can't insert my references...
Please - bug fix!

volume, issue, page nr missing
Hi,
I recently 'discovered' that I can also look for articles using only the program mendeley desktop (so not going to your website). However, now all volume nr's issues and page nr's are not reported in the reference list in my word document, although they ARE in the files in mendeley desktop. I now try to delete these refs and add new ones from your website, that I import in mendeley desktop and then it works for some... but not others... very frustrating. Does the problem sound familiar to you and can you help me?

Collections and subcollections
For a long time Mendeley didn't have the possibility to organize articles in folders (collections). Eventually this was implemented, but it is still highly disfunctional and problematic.
Collections should work exactly as Labels in GMail!
Some examples of problems with the way Collections are presently working:
1. Cannot search by collection name
2. If you remove an item from a subcollection it is removed from the parent collection altogether! How genius! If you have the same article in two subcollections of a given collection and you remove it from one of the subcollections it is removed from the other subcollection too!
3. Articles that belong to a subcollection of a collection show up in the parent collection too.
These three features alone make organizing articles in Mendeley a nightmare! GMail Labels are exactly how Collections in Mendeley should work!

Download all my pdf files from a folder in Mendeley Desktop to Dropbox
Hi there
I have a MACBOOK and would like to download all my pdf files from one folder (over 3000 pdfs) from my Mendeley Desktop to my Dropbox account as I would like save all my pdf files in Dropbox.
I will then be deleting the folder in Mendeley Desktop.
What is the best way to do this?
Thanks
Elaine
