Trusted Windows (PC) download ZOTERO 5.0.89. Virus-free and 100% clean download. Get ZOTERO alternative downloads. Where can I access Zotero download for older version of Mac standalone for OSX 10.5.8 PowerPC, and plugin downloads for latest versions of Safari and/or Firefox for OSX 10.5.8 (Safari 5.0.6; FireFox 3.6.28)?
Latest Zotero downloads have a compatibility issue with earlier versions of of OSX, so they do not work in Mac OSX 10.5.
I found a link in discussions for Zotero 3.0.8.1, but that version only works in Mac Classic on OSX which was discontinued in OSX 10.5.
OSX Classic mode was for running aps that were designed for OS9 and earlier.
Isn’t there an older version of Zotero that ran in OSX?
It would be helpful if there was a website page for older versions listed by system requirements and compatibility.
*I’ve updated Zotero Standalone to 4.0.27.6 and I clean installed Mac OS El Capitan. In my word 2016, I’ve the icons of Zotero in the add-ins tab but when I want to add a citation, it says ’Word couldn’t communicate with Zotero.

* Zotero’s download links all have the same structure, e.g. current xpi is
http://download.zotero.org/extension/zotero-3.0.11.xpi
3.0.8.1 is
http://download.zotero.org/extension/zotero-3.0.8.1.xpi
etc. Same applies for the 2.1 releases etc. Generally Zotero doesn’t test compatibility on systems no longer supported by their maker (i.e. FF 3.6.x and OS X <10.6). You could try see if ten four fox works with Zotero, that’s probably a better bet than trying to get outdated versions of Zotero to work:

*edited January 15, 2013I found a link in discussions for Zotero 3.0.8.1, but that version only works in Mac Classic on OSX which was discontinued in OSX 10.5.I’m not sure where you got this impression from. No version of Zotero has ever run in classic mode. Zotero 3.0.8.1 works fine on Mac OS X 10.5.
* Could the later versioin file be linked at the 3.0.8.1 download URL?
I have downloaded twice with same result.
When I open the Zotero 3.0.8.1 dmg file, the app icon is greyed out with a white circle and slash over it. The first time I copied it to my applications folder and tried to open it, I got an error message that it needed Classic environment to open.
I deleted the app file and reinstalled, and got error message that it’s not supported on this architecture, which is typically the error given when app is for later OS, or for Intel processor.
I downloaded dmg file and installed again with same result.
Prior to installing 3.0.5.1, I had installed Zotero 3.0.11 and it simply wouldn’t open, no error messages.
I trashed the Zotero 3.0.11 app, but could there be an associated 3.0.11 system file somewhere that is producing the error message(s) when I try to open Zotero 3.0.8.1?
Also, still looking for plugin download link.
Plugin download link provided for 3.0.8.1 does not work - returns page..

* sorry, 3.0.8.1 was a Standalone only upgrade, the 3.0.8 plugin version is under:
http://download.zotero.org/extension/zotero-3.0.8.xpi
* I believe all of the Standalone apps are built based on FF4+ architecture, so they won’t run on PPC
* When I preview Zotero.app file in the finder after installing,
it does not list as version 3.0.8.1.
Instead it shows - Kind: Application (Classic)
* see above - it wouldn’t run on PPC anyway. It runs on OS 10.5, but not on PPC.
* It would be extremely helpful and an incredible time saver to have the SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS posted up front in a very prominent place!
* The info is here
http://www.zotero.org/support/compatibility_matrix
I’ve tagged it with ’system requirements to make it easier to find.
The reason system requirements aren’t featured more prominently is that Zotero works for everyone with a computer less than 7 years old and an operating systems less than 5 years old (and everyone with a PC/Windows less than 10 years old or so). So having those features prominently would be a waste of time/space for something like 99.99% of all users.
* This was discussed not long ago, but it seems that Zotero should work fine TenFourFox, which is Firefox for PPC: http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
* I could not download the old version following these links.
* the links above work. If you need help, you’ll need to be more specific about what you’re trying to do, on which system, which links you’re using, and what’s not working. FEATURES
Zotfile is a Zotero plugin to manage your attachments: automatically rename, move, and attach PDFs (or other files) to Zotero items, sync PDFs from your Zotero library to your (mobile) PDF reader (e.g. an iPad, Android tablet, etc.) and extract annotations from PDF files.★ Attach New Files to Zotero Items
ZotFile can rename and add the most recently modified file from the Firefox download or a user specified folder as a new attachment to the currently selected Zotero item. It renames the file using metadata from the selected Zotero item (user configurable), and stores the file as a Zotero attachment to this item (or alternatively, moves it to a custom location).★ (Batch) Rename and Move Attachments based on Zotero Metadata
The user can also select any number of Zotero items and automatically rename and move all attachments of these items according to the user defined rules using metadata of the respective zotero item (batch processing).★ Sync PDFs with your iPad or Android tablet
To read and annotate PDF attachments on your mobile device, zotfile can sync PDFs from your Zotero library to your (mobile) PDF reader (e.g. an iPad, Android tablet, etc.). Zotfile sends files to a location on your PC or Mac that syncs with your PDF reader App (PDF Expert, iAnnotate, GoodReader etc.), allows you to configure custom subfolders for easy access, and even extracts the annotations and highlighted text to Zotero notes when you get the files back from your tablet. Instructions are below.★ Extract Annotations from PDF Files
After highlighting and annotating pdfs on your tablet (or with the PDF reader application on your computer), ZotFile can automatically extract the highlighted text and note annotations from the pdf. The extracted text is saved in a Zotero note. Thanks to Joe Devietti, this feature is now available on all platforms based on the pdf.js library.HOW TO INSTALL & SET UP ZOTFILE
To start using zotfile, make sure that Zotero is installed and follow these simple steps:
*
Install ZotFile
For Zotero 5, first download the extension file (follow the download link above, click on the .xpi file for the most recent release). Now start Zotero 5 and go to “Tool -> Add-ons -> Tools for all Add-ons (the small, drop-down wheel in the top right corner) -> Install Add-on From File” and select the downloaded .xpi file.
*
Change the Source Folder for Attaching new Files
To attach new files to Zotero items, zotfile looks for the most recently modified (e.g. just downloaded) file in a user specified folder. For Zotero Firefox, this option is set to the Firefox download folder by default. For Zotero Standalone, this option has to be changed on the ‘General Settings’ tab in the preference window (Tools -> ZotFile Preferences). The source folder can be set to any location but I generally recommend setting it to your browser’s download folder such as ~/Downloads on the mac for most browsers.
*
Changing other Options (optional)
ZotFile offers many other options that can be changed by the user. Most of them are located in the zotfile preference window under Tools -> ZotFile Preferences.Syncing PDF attachments with your iPad or Android tablet
To read and annotate PDF attachments on your mobile device, zotfile can sync PDFs from your Zotero library to your (mobile) PDF reader (e.g. an iPad, Android tablet, etc.). For this purpose, Zotfile sends files to a location on your PC or Mac that syncs with your PDF reader App (PDF Expert, iAnnotate, GoodReader etc.), and gets them back when you have finished reading them.
*
Set up a folder on your PC or Mac that syncs with your tablet reader application. Files that are copied to this folder should automatically appear in your PDF reader application. One possibility is Dropbox, which is free for up to 2GB of space and works with most PDF reader apps. More detailed instructions as well as alternative options should be available on the website of your PDF reader App.
*
Open the ‘Tablet Settings’ tab in the zotfile preference window and enable the option ‘Use ZotFile to send and get files from tablet’.
*
Change the zotfile location for files on the tablet to the folder that syncs with your pdf reader app (‘Base Folder’ on the ‘Tablet Settings’ tab).
*
(optional) Set up subfolders that make it easy to sort your files in the tablet folder so that you can easily find them on your tablet.
You can now start sending pdfs (or other files) to your tablet. Simply right-click on a zotero item and select ‘Send to Tablet’ under ‘Manage Attachments’.
When you are done reading and annotating your pdf, just get the file back from the tablet by clicking on ‘Get from Tablet’ under ‘Manage Attachments’. ZotFile will automatically remove the file from your tablet folder and extract the annotations from the pdf file to a zotero note.
ZotFile adds a saved search for modified files on tablet which updates automatically and can be used to sync attachment files that have been changed.RENAMING RULES
ZotFile renames files based on bibliographic information from the currently selected Zotero item. You can change the renaming rules in the zotfile preference window under renaming rules (Zotero Actions -> ZotFile Preferences). The option ‘Renaming Format’ allows you to create custom renaming rules using wildcards, which are replaced by metadata from the selected Zotero item. Zotfile also supports optional and exclusive wild-cards. Optional wild-cards mean that {-%y} only includes the seperator - in the filename if %y is defined. Exclusive wild-cards such as %s|%j will generate the entry for %s if that exists and the entry for %j otherwise. Other characters between the wildcards and the bar are ignored (%s | stuff %j | - more %p is equivalent to %s|%j|%p). Some examples are below.Wildcards
*%a last names of authors (not editors etc) or inventors. The maximum number of authors are changed under ‘Additional Settings’.
*%I author initials.
*%F author’s last name with first letter of first name (e.g. EinsteinA).
*%A first letter of author (useful for subfolders)
*%d, %D, %L, %l wildcards for editors, same as for authors.
*%y year (extracted from Date field)
*%t title. Usually truncated after : . ? The maximal length of the remaining part of the title can be changed.
*%T item type (localized)
*%j name of the journal
*%p name of the publisher
*%w name of the journal or publisher (same as “%j%p”)
*%s journal abbreviation
*%v journal volume
*%e journal issue
*%f pages
*%c collection path (only for sub-folders, not file names). When item is in multiple collections, user can choose between the different collections.
*%n patent number (patent items only)
*%i assignee (patent items only)Examples

All wildcards are now defined in the hidden preference zotfile.wildcards.default and can be changed by the user. But I strongly suggest that you do not change this preference. Instead, there is a second hidden preference zotfile.wildcards.user that allows you to add and overwrite wildcards (hidden preference can be changed in about:config). This is a preference is for advanced user without any error checking so be careful what you do! By default, zotfile.wildcards.user is set to {} so that no user wildcards are defined. Below is an example JSON that defines wildcards for %1, %2, %3, %4 illustrating all the possibilities:
*String with the name of Zotero field (%1)
*
JSON with item type specific field names (%2)
Always include a default value. Otherwise this is not going to work. A list of all item types is available here.
*
JSON with field element and transformations based on regular expressions (%3 and %4)
ZotFile uses the specified field as an input string and then applies the transformations specified in operations. The value of field can either be the name of a Zotero field (see 1) or a javascript object with item type specific field names (see 2). operations is an array of javascript objects and supports three types of transformations that are identified by the function element:
*
exec: Search for matches using regular expressions (%3). Zotfile uses the exec() function based on the regular expression defined in regex, and returns the element specified in group so that 0 returns the matched text and higher values the corresponding capturing parenthesis. If the match fails, this operation returns the input data.
Required parameters: regex
Optional parameters: group (default 0), flags (default ’g’)
*
replace: Replaces matches of a pattern using regular expressions (%4). Zotfile uses the replace() function with the regular expression regex and replacement string replacement. The replacement string can include $n for the _n_th parenthesized sub-match string and other special replacement patterns (see replace() documentationn). The wildcard %4, for example, takes the date when an item was added (format 2012-02-18 02:31:37) and returns the reformatted date as 20120218.
Required parameters: regex, replacement
Optional parameters: flags (default ’g’)
*
toLowerCase etc: Simple string functions that that do not require any additional arguments(%5). Currently supported are toLowerCase, toUpperCase, and trim.
flags is an optional parameter for both searching and replacing and corresponds to flags for regular expressions in javascript (default: ’g’).
*Finally, the wildcard %5 combines item type specific field names with regular expression.Example for user-defined wildcardsItem types and field names
A complete list of Zotero fields is available here (dateModified and dateAdded seem to be missing from that list) and all the item types are here. The fields for each item type are listed on this page. Zotfile defines a number of additional fields that can be used as part of wildcards: itemType is the language specific item type, formatedTitle is the title formatted using the options defined in the zofile preferences, author is the author string formatted using the zotfile preferences, authorLastF is the author string formatted as LastnameF, and authorInitials are the initial of the authors.Formatting rules
There are a couple of formatting rules for the user-defined wildcards:
*Wildcards can only be one character
*Use double escape characters in regular expression so that a d becomes d
*Always use ’ never ’
Most importantly, validate your json. Check out zotfile.wildcards.default for more examples (see below). Finally, the JSON has to be reformatted to one line that can be pasted into the preference field in about:config. Here is the example from above:Zotero Word
{’1’: ’publicationTitle’, ’2’: {’default’: ’publicationTitle’, ’book’: ’publisher’, ’bookSection’: ’publisher’}, ’3’: {’field’: ’title’, ’regex’: ’([w ,-]{1,50})[:.?!]?’, ’group’: 1 }, ’4’: {’default’: {’field’: ’title’, ’regex’: ’([w ,-]{1,10})[:.?!]?’, ’group’: 1, ’transform’: ’upperCase’}, ’journalArticle’: ’publicationTitle’} }
You can use a javascript console such as Firefox’s Scratchpad to test whether the JSON is properlyDefault setting of zotfile.wildcards.default
The information in this file might not be up to date but you can look at the default wildcards and learn something about user-defined wildscards here. The minified version in one line is here so that you can copy it to zotfile.wildcards.default if you screw up.EXTRACT PDF ANNOTATIONS
Zotfile can extracted annotations and highlighted text from many PDF files. The extracted annotations are saved in Zotero notes and you can go back to the annotation in the pdf by clicking on the link after the extracted text. PDFs are a very complex format and the extraction will never work for all files. If you can not copy & paste meaningful text from the file in your pdf viewer (open your pdf viewer (not the browser plugin), select text, copy and paste it somewhere), zotfile won’t be able to extract the highlighted text either. If you can, there is a chance that future versions of zotfile will solve the problem. When you have a pdf file that does not work or with clear spacing problems, feel free to share the file on the zotfile thread in the Zotero forum or upload it to the zotfile Zotero group in the PUT FILES HERE folder. But only share files for which you can copy and paste text! Otherwise you are wasting everyone’s time.On Mac OS, you can also use poppler to extract pdf annotations (ZotFile Preferences -> Advanced Settings). Currently, pdf.js is more reliable and should be the default in most cases. The poppler-based tool, however, is faster and might handle certain pdf standards that are not yet supported by pdf.js.Goto Annotation in PDF
Zotfile adds a link to extracted annotations that allows you to open the pdf file at the page with the annotation. Just click on the link after some extracted text and your pdf should open on the correct location. On Windows,

To start using zotfile, make sure that Zotero is installed and follow these simple steps:
*
Install ZotFile
For Zotero 5, first download the extension file (follow the download link above, click on the .xpi file for the most recent release). Now start Zotero 5 and go to “Tool -> Add-ons -> Tools for all Add-ons (the small, drop-down wheel in the top right corner) -> Install Add-on From File” and select the downloaded .xpi file.
*
Change the Source Folder for Attaching new Files
To attach new files to Zotero items, zotfile looks for the most recently modified (e.g. just downloaded) file in a user specified folder. For Zotero Firefox, this option is set to the Firefox download folder by default. For Zotero Standalone, this option has to be changed on the ‘General Settings’ tab in the preference window (Tools -> ZotFile Preferences). The source folder can be set to any location but I generally recommend setting it to your browser’s download folder such as ~/Downloads on the mac for most browsers.
*
Changing other Options (optional)
ZotFile offers many other options that can be changed by the user. Most of them are located in the zotfile preference window under Tools -> ZotFile Preferences.Syncing PDF attachments with your iPad or Android tablet

All wildcards are now defined in the hidden preference zotfile.wildcards.default and can be changed by the user. But I strongly suggest that you do not change this preference. Instead, there is a second hidden preference zotfile.wildcards.user that allows you to add and overwrite wildcards (hidden preference can be changed in about:config). This is a preference is for advanced user without any error checking so be careful what you do! By default, zotfile.wildcards.user is set to {} so that no user wildcards are defined. Below is an example JSON that defines wildcards for %1, %2, %3, %4 illustrating all the possibilities:
*String with the name of Zotero field (%1)
*
JSON with item type specific field names (%2)
Always include a default value. Otherwise this is not going to work. A list of all item types is available here.
*
JSON with field element and transformations based on regular expressions (%3 and %4)
ZotFile uses the specified field as an input string and then applies the transformations specified in operations. The value of field can either be the name of a Zotero field (see 1) or a javascript object with item type specific field names (see 2). operations is an array of javascript objects and supports three types of transformations that are identified by the function element:
*
exec: Search for matches using regular expressions (%3). Zotfile uses the exec() function based on the regular expression defined in regex, and returns the element specified in group so that 0 returns the matched text and higher values the corresponding capturing parenthesis. If the match fails, this operation returns the input data.
Required parameters: regex
Optional parameters: group (default 0), flags (default ’g’)
*
replace: Replaces matches of a pattern using regular expressions (%4). Zotfile uses the replace() function with the regular expression regex and replacement string replacement. The replacement string can include $n for the _n_th parenthesized sub-match string and other special replacement patterns (see replace() documentationn). The wildcard %4, for example, takes the date when an item was added (format 2012-02-18 02:31:37) and returns the reformatted date as 20120218.
Required parameters: regex, replacement
Optional parameters: flags (default ’g’)
*
toLowerCase etc: Simple string functions that that do not require any additional arguments(%5). Currently supported are toLowerCase, toUpperCase, and trim.
flags is an optional parameter for both searching and replacing and corresponds to flags for regular expressions in javascript (default: ’g’).
*Finally, the wildcard %5 combines item type specific field names with regular expression.Example for user-defined wildcardsItem types and field names
A complete list of Zotero fields is available here (dateModified and dateAdded seem to be missing from that list) and all the item types are here. The fields for each item type are listed on this page. Zotfile defines a number of additional fields that can be used as part of wildcards: itemType is the language specific item type, formatedTitle is the title formatted using the options defined in the zofile preferences, author is the author string formatted using the zotfile preferences, authorLastF is the author string formatted as LastnameF, and authorInitials are the initial of the authors.Formatting rules
There are a couple of formatting rules for the user-defined wildcards:
*Wildcards can only be one character
*Use double escape characters in regular expression so that a d becomes d
*Always use ’ never ’
Most importantly, validate your json. Check out zotfile.wildcards.default for more examples (see below). Finally, the JSON has to be reformatted to one line that can be pasted into the preference field in about:config. Here is the example from above:Zotero Word
{’1’: ’publicationTitle’, ’2’: {’default’: ’publicationTitle’, ’book’: ’publisher’, ’bookSection’: ’publisher’}, ’3’: {’field’: ’title’, ’regex’: ’([w ,-]{1,50})[:.?!]?’, ’group’: 1 }, ’4’: {’default’: {’field’: ’title’, ’regex’: ’([w ,-]{1,10})[:.?!]?’, ’group’: 1, ’transform’: ’upperCase’}, ’journalArticle’: ’publicationTitle’} }
You can use a javascript console such as Firefox’s Scratchpad to test whether the JSON is properlyDefault setting of zotfile.wildcards.default
The information in this file might not be up to date but you can look at the default wildcards and learn something about user-defined wildscards here. The minified version in one line is here so that you can copy it to zotfile.wildcards.default if you screw up.EXTRACT PDF ANNOTATIONS
Zotfile can extracted annotations and highlighted text from many PDF files. The extracted annotations are saved in Zotero notes and you can go back to the annotation in the pdf by clicking on the link after the extracted text. PDFs are a very complex format and the extraction will never work for all files. If you can not copy & paste meaningful text from the file in your pdf viewer (open your pdf viewer (not the browser plugin), select text, copy and paste it somewhere), zotfile won’t be able to extract the highlighted text either. If you can, there is a chance that future versions of zotfile will solve the problem. When you have a pdf file that does not work or with clear spacing problems, feel free to share the file on the zotfile thread in the Zotero forum or upload it to the zotfile Zotero group in the PUT FILES HERE folder. But only share files for which you can copy and paste text! Otherwise you are wasting everyone’s time.On Mac OS, you can also use poppler to extract pdf annotations (ZotFile Preferences -> Advanced Settings). Currently, pdf.js is more reliable and should be the default in most cases. The poppler-based tool, however, is faster and might handle certain pdf standards that are not yet supported by pdf.js.Goto Annotation in PDF
Zotfile adds a link to extracted annotations that allows you to open the pdf file at the page with the annotation. Just click on the link after some extracted text and your pdf should open on the correct location. On Windows,
