Hello,
When I try to link Zotero to Word by installing the Microsoft Word Add-in, I get this message:
'Zotero Word for Windows Integration. Installation could not be completed because an error occurred. Please ensure that Microsoft Word is closed, and then restart Zotero.'
I have ensured Microsoft Word is closed. I have re-installed Zotero. Still no luck.
I can import items into my Zotero library but it is not connecting in anyway to Word.
I am using the Zotero standalone through Chrome trying to install the add-in for Word 2016, Windows 10.
  • See https://www.zotero.org/support/windows_word_plugin_manual_installation_instructions
  • I'm having the same problem and when I click on the above link, I can't open it.
  • The link is definitely right. Try in a different browser.
  • I tried installing chrome and can't get it to work there either.
  • which browser? Can you open other documentation links such as https://www.zotero.org/support/zotero_data
    Have you tried copying the link to the URL bar instead of clicking it?
  • Hi Adam, Yes I tried this and just spent an hour with apple support trying to figure out the instructions. I downloaded Chrome and Firefox and couldn't get it to work with either. Is there a support person I can call?
  • no, Zotero doesn't do phone support (it's free software with a small development team and a significant share of support is done by volunteers such as myself).
    But I'm not quite sure where we are with your problem at this point -- you are now able to look at the page above or not?
  • As adamsmith said, there's no phone support.
    People will help you here, but you'll need to take the time to explain exactly what's happening. Please read through this page to understand how to report problems in a way that lets people help you.
  • Thanks,
    When I go to the first link Adam posted above, I follow it to the pug in. But when I attempt to install the plug in, I get this message: 'Safari can’t open the file “Zotero-MacWord-Plugin-3.5.14.xpi” because no available application can open it.'
  • I just went to Firefox and was able to down load and install the plug in. But the Zotero Z still doesn't show up in my word documents.

    OK, instead of following steps 1-3 (note that step one says to skip when you're using Zotero Standalone, which is why you ran into trouble downloading it), just download Zotero.dotm from
    https://github.com/zotero/zotero-word-for-mac-integration/raw/master/install/Zotero.dotm (right-click --> Save link as)
    Then try to follow steps 4-6 very closely, placing the dotm file in the Word Startup folder. If you run into trouble, come back here and report precisely what's not working, as you did in your last post.
  • I downloaded Zotero.dotm. Then I tried to find word start up folder. I used Macworld 2016 instructions and got to the preferences in the drop down options. I clicked on file locations and six different files were listed. Startup has next to it a file saying /Users/carolyn wolfgould/Documents and when I click on this it opens my google documents drive. I then hit modify and it opened a blank screen with 'choose the location of startup:' on top. Underneath was box with 'Documents -- I cloud' in it. This is an empty field. I can click on the side bar to open up desk top, applications, google drive and downloads. But I don't see any path along the line of /libraryGroup/Containers, etc like it says in the instructions.
  • I think I got it to work. I installed the dotm. download in my google drive and now see TWO zoteros in my word document! That's better than none! Not sure why I have two though. . .
  • Great. And they work the way you expect them to?
    Not sure about the two, either -- but you can likely disable one of them in Word's add-on settings if it bothers you.

This article applies to Adobe Connect versions that supports Adobe Connect add-in. Starting Nov 2017, Adobe introduced the new Adobe Connect application for desktop that replaces the old Adobe Connect add-in for Adobe Connect version 9.x and later. If you are on Adobe Connect version 8 or earlier, you can continue to use Adobe Connect add-in.

Adobe, however, recommends it for the fixes as listed below.
