NOTE: There was a compatibility issue with EndNote X7 and the MacIntosh OS Sierra which has been corrected in the latest version X8. A Cite While You Write patch is available for EndNote X7 that addresses the compatibility issue with Office 2016/Office 365 on Macintosh [the Endnote toolbar tab not appearing in the Word menu].The patch will become automatically available after successful. They say 'EndNote X7 is not currently compatible with Microsoft Word 2016 for Mac. We are actively developing a patch for EndNote X7 and anticipate this free update to be ready in Sept/Oct.' I cannot link endnote 8.2 to word 2016. I used to be able to add refs directly from endnote, but now I cannot do that. I tried the tutorial and I do not see the buttons or icons I am supposed to see in order to do this from word.

Problems Syncing with EndNote Web Possible Solution 1: Be sure that you are logged in to your EndNote Web account and that the login and password you used on EndNote Web are the same that you used to set up your EndNote Sync preferences. If you're not sure, try changing your password at then, back in your EndNote desktop library, click Edit then Preferences then Sync (Mac users click EndNoteX7 then Preferences then Sync) and type in the same login and password information in the boxes provided.

KU grad students, faculty and staff and download version X7 at at no charge. DOI numbers not included in EndNote citation from Google Scholar Citations imported to EndNote from Google Scholar will not include DOI numbers. In many cases, these Google Scholar citations will also exclude abstracts. Clicking on the title of the item in Google Scholar will jump you out to the actual database in which the item is stored. You may have better luck looking for an Export button in this database and trying to get the citation information there instead.

Another approach is to go ahead and use Google Scholar, then deploy EndNote's Find Reference Updates feature to try to bring in the missing information. Here's how: • Right-click (Mac users may need to control+click) on the item in your EndNote library. (To search for updated references on a batch of items, hold down the shift key and click to highlight, then right-click.) • In the menu that pops up, click on Find Reference Updates.
