Problems that may arise

• Word wasn’t able to load an add-in
• I’m not getting the EndNote toolbar in Word
• Compatibility with previous EndNote versions
• How can I transfer references from Reference Manager to EndNote?
• Library deleted / not working. Is there any help?
• How do I make EndNote understand that institutions as authors should not be perceived with first and last names?
• How to merge two documents that both have references?
• When importing from PubMed, I only get shortened journal title while my style requires me to use full title. Is there any way to solve this?

How do I do that?
