Update 6/18/09 11:30 am: Problem was resolved
There’s a problem with access to campus key based resources on JEFFLINE this morning. Jeff-IT is investigating. In the meantime, here is a work around.
Any questions? Please ask!
Write-n-Cite users have been running into problems when using computers on the campus MST network. The MS Word Status sticks at “Word is not Running” and clicking cite fails to send citation code to Word. We’re working with Jeff-IT to resolve the problem.
The message "Word is not Running" is a symptom of the recent WNC problem.
One work around is to use the One Line/Cite View in RefWorks, which provides code snippits to copy-and-paste into Word and a bibliography button to format your document. Here are full instructions (Word).
Some Mac users report that the current version of Write-n-Cite for Mac, v2.5, isn’t inserting citations into the Office X version of Microsoft Word. (I’ve been able to replicate that problem and see that it does work on the newer Office 2008 for Mac, which is installed in the Scott LRC.) Reverting to the older Write-n-Cite for Mac v.2 fixes the problem, but the download is no longer available from the RefWorks download page. The very helpful folks at RefWorks Support provided the file and these instructions:
PuMed’s servers have been up and down today. At this point, searching seems stable again, but our JEFFLINE button to get full text may not work correctly till tomorrow, 6/19/08, around 10 am.
In the meantime, a work around is to copy the PMID of the desired citation.
