When I click 'insert bibliography' in microsoft word nothing happens. Every time I open a new document a message pops up saying 'Method 'ListIndex' of object 'CommandBarComboBox' failed (-2147483460) in MendeleyPlugin' appears. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the plug but that doesn't seem to work. How do I fix this?

freezes when dragging large number of files from "all documents" to a group
New installation, v 1.10.3. I was a previous user, so after installing, a large number of documents appeared in my "All documents" folder. I wanted to put these in a group (say, "previous work"). I create the group. I go to All documents and sort by date so I can differentiate those documents that appeared from my username from those on my local drive. I select the first old document in this list, scrollllllll way down, shift select the last. When I click to drag, nothing appears (unlike when dragging one or two, in whcih case you drag a copy). Trying anyway and releasing my mouse pointer on the "previous work" folder name, Mendeley freezes. After killing the process and restarting, the "previous work" folder is still empty.

Watched folders don't add filenames with the percent sign
If I download a file with a percent sign, e.g., authorname%3Atitle.pdf (this often happens if you don't rename the download from a publisher website), to a watched folder, it is not added to Mendeley. Version 1.10.3 new installation as of today. windows 7 x64

Couldn't insert citation from Mendeley to Word file
Dear Sir,
After a long time i am using mendeley and when i tried to insert citation from it to MS word file , MS word shows the message something like this
"couldn't start Mendeley Desktop- connection timed out -try to start it manually " and
even if i have already started Mendeley it shows the message
"Mendeley Desktop is already running but may not be responding. Click the Mendeley Icon in the task bar or dock to activate it" and no citations can be inserted.
I had changed from MS Office 2007 to 2010 and again to MS Office 2007. Now it is very important for me to use it for citation as myPhD review is soon scheduled.
Please help me solve this issue.
Thanking you,

Restoring Mendeley Desktop PDFs after Back up
Hello,
I used Time Machine to back up my previous, 6-year old Mac before starting with a new MacBook Pro (I had my PDFs saved locally rather than to your online storage). Although I have been adding files onto my new computer, including from what I think is the Mendeley database, my new computer is not linking the PDF files on my Desktop. Can I restore the links created by the "Add File" feature on my new computer? I cannot even imagine doing this by hand, given the number of files I have.

import from Papers results in incorrect year metadata
I have recently decided to try Mendeley again after putting it aside for a year. When I first set up my Mendeley Desktop, I imported my Papers library of some 800 articles. It appears that the "year" field of the metadata is now off by one year in Mendeley every case. Is there a way to tell the program to review/correct the metadata for all files or something similar to handle the problem in bulk? Going through one by one is clearly not ideal.

CANNOT LOG IN!
I registered with my Facebook account, and now it logs in automatically from chrome, but when I try to log in from mendeley desktop it does not work. Message error says that the password is not correct.
After that I thought, ok, I erase the account. However, it asked me for my password when I was already logged in in chrome, and the same error: incorrect password.
What is happening?

view research catalogue entry for this paper
Having added many papers to my library I noticed that now the area entitled 'view research catalogue entry for this paper' has been greyed out. If you search again for the same paper the section is functional in red and black. It also says that my paper reference is not saved to my library when it clearly is. I have logged out and rebooted but nothing changes. I have to add all references again.
This is not working properly. Please advise what I have to do or how it can be fixed as I do not want to add each paper again and again.
Thank you.

Additional info requested on importing Word .xml sources into Mendeley
I have read the instructions on importing a Microsoft Word .xml file of references into Mendeley. The instructions stop at "click open." But what happens after that? I have clicked File, Open, and I'd selected a source.xml file that I exported from Word as an EndNote .xml. After I click "open," nothing seems to happen. I don't see the source.xml file, or its contents,anywhere in my Mendeley desktop. Can you help?

Citing a Report- Institution name does not appear
Why does the name of the institution NOT appear in the bibliography when a citation is saved as a "Report"? (this is annoying since information on report is included in the reference but does not appear in the bibliography)
Thanks!

Where is the Edit Settings tab?
I would like to stop Mendeley downloading my entire library of several thousand pdfs every time I open it, and creating multiple copies of the pdfs on my computer.
Apparently I can go to "Edit Settings" and click on the sync options.
Only I cannot find the "Edit Settings" tab. Its not under Edit or Tools Options.
