Feb 28, 2013 Hi Forum, Recently, I deleted many apps that I simple don't use anymore. I was searching around my machine to see if any files where remaining in the usual places: preference, application support, saved state etc. But I found a new one as seen in the title here. Does anyone know what kind. In Microsoft Outlook 2016 for Mac or Office for Mac 2011, you receive a 'No Results' message when you try to search for an email message or apply a filter to a folder, and task items are not displayed in the Tasks folder. Additionally, when you search for mail items by using the Mac OS native Spotlight Search, your search is unsuccessful. Support for Office for Mac 2011 ended on October 10, 2017. All of your Office for Mac 2011 apps will continue to function. However, you could expose yourself to serious and potentially harmful security risks. Upgrade to a newer version of Office so you can stay up to date with all the latest features, patches, and security updates.

Word for Windows

  1. Open the Zotero installation folder (usually C:Program Files (x86)Zotero).
  2. In the installation folder, open extensionszoteroWinWordIntegration@zotero.orginstall, where you you can find a copy of the file Zotero.dotm (for Word for Windows 2007 and higher) or Zotero.dot (for older versions of Word). If the folder is empty, the file was somehow deleted — possibly by security software — and you should reinstall Zotero. If you see two “Zotero” files without file extensions, your computer is set not to display file extensions, and you can determine which one is Zotero.dotm by right-clicking on each file and selecting Properties.
  3. Find your Word startup folder using the instructions below. You should now have two folders open: the Word startup folder and the “install” folder containing Zotero.dotm.
  4. Copy the Zotero.dotm file to your Word Startup folder. (Be sure to copy the file rather than moving it.)
  5. Start (or restart) Microsoft Word to begin using the plugin.

Word for Mac 2016 and 2019

  1. In Finder, press Cmd-Shift-G and navigate to

    where you can find a copy of the Zotero.dotm file. If the folder is empty, the file was somehow deleted — possibly by security software — and you should reinstall Zotero.

  2. Find your Word startup folder by following the instructions below. You should now have two folders open: the Word startup folder and the “install” folder containing Zotero.dotm.
  3. Copy the Zotero.dotm file to your Word Startup folder. (Be sure to copy the file rather than moving it.)
  4. Start (or restart) Microsoft Word to begin using the plugin.

Word for Mac 2011

  1. Download Zotero.dot.zip and double-click it to extract the Zotero.dot file. (Note: The file must be extracted in Finder, not via the command line.)
  2. Find your Word startup folder by following the instructions below.
  3. Move the Zotero.dot file to your Word Startup folder.
    1. If you have a non-English version of Office, you may need to move the Zotero.dot file into the “Word” directory within the equivalent of “Startup” in your language. The correct path should be listed in Tools → Templates and Add-ins in Word.
    2. If you're using a non-admin macOS user account, you will need to install the Word plugin from an administrative account or grant write access for the startup directory to the non-admin account to allow it to install Zotero.dot.
  4. Start (or restart) Microsoft Word to begin using the plugin.

LibreOffice

    • Mac: In Finder, press Cmd-Shift-G and paste in
    • Linux: Go to the directory where Zotero is installed and open

Locating your Word Startup folder

The correct folder can often be found in the Word preferences:

Mac group containers

Word 2007 or later for Windows

Click File tab in the Word ribbon and then click Options. In Word Options, click Advanced. Under General, click File Locations. The Startup folder should be listed there. Select it and click Modify. Placing the cursor in the location bar at the top of the window will allow you to copy the complete path to the Startup folder. Click Cancel to close the dialog.

Word 2016 and 2019 for Mac

In Word, open the “Word” menu in the top-left of the screen and select “Preferences”. Click on “File Locations” under “Personal Settings” and click on “Startup” at the bottom of the list. This may list your Startup folder location.

If there is no location listed, the default location is ~/Library/Group Containers/UBF8T346G9.Office/User Content/Startup/Word (i.e., the Library folder within your home directory). The ~/Library folder is hidden by default, but you can open it from the Finder by holding down Option, clicking the Go menu, and selecting Library. You can also press Cmd-Shift-G in Finder and copy in the default location to navigate to that folder.

Word 2011 for Mac

The default location of the startup folder is /Applications/Microsoft Office 2011/Office/Startup/Word. You can open it from the Finder by pressing Cmd-Shift-G and copying in the path or by navigating to it.

If changes you make to the startup folder aren't taking effect, you can confirm that Word isn't set to a different location. In Word, open the “Word” menu in the top-left of the screen and select “Preferences”. Click on “File Locations” under “Personal Settings” and click on “Startup” at the bottom of the list.

Default locations

On non-English systems or in certain custom setups, these locations may be different.
