reporting for yearly reports
I'm looking for a platform that make sit possible to make reports of publications of my faculty. The reports are, e.g. yearly for the annual report of my university, for the accreditation of my research programs etc. In fact one time input should make it possible to have many formatted outputs.
Can you deliver? I don't see that in your digital " flyer"
Thanks

Can't insert bibliography
I have installed the Mendeley plugin for Word 2010 and I was perfectly able to insert citations via the Mendely Cite-O-Matic Tab under References.
But everytime I'd like to insert a bibliography at the end of the document, it just adds a field saying "Bibliography" and the references don't appear.
I know that there are several other questions regarding this topic but every hint you gave to fix this problem, didn't work for me.
Could you please tell me how to fix this?

Crashing on start up synchronisation
Hello,
Upon loading up Mendeley Desktop and have it start it retrieving documents during the start up synchronisation process, the programme downloads about 90mb and then crashes making the programme unusable.
This has only recently started happening with the programme otherwise working fine over the past few months. I've tried deleting all local data, and re-installing Mendeley desktop from scratch, but sadly to no avail.
Any advice on how to deal with this issue?

More than 3000 documents difficult?
Is it difficult for Mendeley to handle more than 3000 documents? Since I have so many (very short) documents in Mendeley it crashes every time and it can´t find duplicates. It takes ages to do a synconisation and crashes during a cite! Have someone with a similar amount of papers had such experiences???

[Bug Report][Linux] Second running instance of Mendeley Desktop corrupts database
Under normal conditions running the mendeleydesktop program pulls up the existing window. However, under certain conditions (possibly a version 1.10 to 1.11 upgrade allowed this?), a second copy can be opened.
This second copy prompted me to "upgrade" my database. I hit 'ok', and the result was a corrupted DB. Upon reloading the program, it said that it was broken, would use a temp DB, and wouldn't save any changes.
Deleting the entire ~/.local/share/data/Mendeley\ Ltd./Mendeley\ Desktop/ folder resolved the problem, forcing Mendeley to get a completely new copy of the database and associated files.
None the less, I expect this was not the intended behavior, hence the report.

Multiple in-line citations with same author and year, in reverse order
Hi,
I'm just curious if you could help me figure this out. I have 1 author with two papers in the same year. For example:
Akay, A.E.; Sessions, J. 2007
Akay, A.E.; Yuksel, A. 2007
Now in my paper I reference the second paper first and in a later paragraph I cite the first reference but they come out in reverse order. As in, the first paragraph shows Akay et al. 2007b and the second paragraph shows Akay et al. 2007a. This is backwards since I'd like it to show a first then b, but it's assigning the subscript based on the bibliography author sorting. How can I fix this?

Email no longer valid
Dear Mendeley team,
I registered a few years ago (2009/2010) or even 2008. At that time, I was still using my old university email but now no longer valid (km450atcamdotacdotuk). How can I change my email address to the current one so that I can retain the current setting of my mendeley desktop into my new laptop?
Any help is very much appreciated.
Many thanks.

syncing, watching, what?
I had about 100 articles in a folder called Articles on my work PC that I set as a watch folder in Mendeley Desktop (MD). All told, from other computers I use, my database has about 430 articles. This morning I found my Articles folder EMPTY. Panicking, I thought, maybe I should check MD. When it fired up, it started downloading. Ok, wish I'd known it would vacuum all my articles out of my PC and then bring them back down from the cloud (right?). The articles end up not in my Articles folder, but in MD's Downloaded folder, and, it Downloaded all 430+ articles in my database, not the 100 or so I had locally before. But even weirder is that the status bar indicates it is "importing" files, and the number of files keeps going up, into THOUSANDS. I don't have thousands of articles. The app's Downloaded folder actually shows correctly the 430+ files I "own". What is it the status bar talking about?

Microsoft Word on Mac, Mendeley citations showing up as all field code
I had a problem where Word shut down on me twice for supposedly no reason and then once it came back it looked fine, I saved it, then came back to my work today and the field codes are showing up at each citation! This is my thesis so you can imagine the frustration and wasted time. Even when I right-click to see if I can "update field" this is greyed out and won't allow it. Therefore, I have to go through and manually delete and re-enter each citation.
Please tell me if there is a faster way to deal with this (my own fault I don't have another highly updated version of my thesis, only ones where I did not have Mendely in-Word citations) and also HOW TO AVOID IT. If this happens again, it's going to suck to say the least.
Thank you,
Lauren

Cannot open files unless they remain on my hard drive?
Hi,
I use Apple OSX
I switched to Mendeley today to try and free up space on my hard drive. I have used many cloud solutions but Mendeley came recommended so I thought I would give it a try. I moved 867 PDF files to Mendeley and then deleted the files off my hard rive. I could not open any of the files unless I moved them back to my hard drive. So, I have 867 files in Mendeley and on my hard drive, so whats the point? Am I doing something wrong? How do I move them to the cloud, use the desktop app, use my iPad, and delete them from my hard drive?
Also, none of the files open in iPad, even the ones I authored and saved as a PDF. I click the "Open With" option and nothing comes up.

Fix drag&drop behavior between folders (badly) [bug?]
Scenario:
I want to select a (or several) entries from a collection/folder (say, "all documents" to keep it simple) and move it to another collection/folder (say, "cat papers"). As far as I can tell, drag&drop is the only way to accomplish this.
Expected behavior:
I drag a selected item from view "all documents" to "cat papers", release the mouse, done. The view should remain in the original "all documents" throughout. That would be consistent Mac OS X drag/drop behavior (e.g. iTunes), or, I guess, ANY operating system.
Observed behavior:
I drag a selected item from view "all documents" to "cat papers", release the mouse -- and then Mendeley hiccups (delay), switches the view to "cat papers" (sometimes some others) and any mouse movement causes Mendeley to select items or randomly change the folder.
I'm guessing something is screwed up with releasing the mouse, when I actually release the mouse.
This is bad. Very bad.
- It destroys any kind of "sorting" workflow. You're usually sorting from a source ("all documents") to a destination "cat papers", but have no interest in "cat papers" per se.
- It's visually very, very disorienting because the view changes without deliberate user input.
- It easily causes spurious inputs (multiple selects), possibly catastrophic.
I'm Mendeley 1.11, Mac OS 10.9.2.
This kind of behavior is unacceptable for supposedly professional level software, and for paying users (I've been a paying user since day 1).
I wish Mendeley would concentrate more on fixing the interface and adding features rather than blogging on open science and other stuff (which I appreciate; but from you guys, I want a solid product, first).
I'm this close to actually going back to Bibdesk, which at least, is rock solid.
Rant over.

American Society for Microbiology citation style not installed
Hi
I have been trying to American Society for Microbiology citation style but without success.
First in Mendeley desktop I went through View-Citation Style-More Styles-Get More Styles... but when I click on install nothing happens. It also does not appear in the installed citation styles.
So I got the RAW file from GitHub:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/citation-style-language/styles/master/american-society-for-microbiology.csl
I pasted in View-Citation Style-More Styles-Get More Styles-Download Style but it says that Cannot connect to server.
What should I do?
Thanks for your help
