Importing results from Scopus

Hi, I am exporting the results of a Scopus search into a document (.ris) to later upload the list into Mendeley, since I cannot do direct import due to having more than a thousand results. The thing is I have 1075 results, but only 1073 have been added to my Mendeley Desktop. Where are the other two missing? What is the best way or format to import files into Mendeley, anyway? Thank you!

When I try to install the MS Word 2011 plugin from the Mendeley Desktop, I get the following error: "Your copy of Microsoft Word does not appear to have Visual Basic for Applications support installed" I have completely removed Office 2011 and reinstalled it using the Customize option, and I have selected all available options. Visual Basic for Applications seems to be working (as I understand it) because I am able to record, save and use macros. Any Ideas?

How can I choose if the author is an institution or a person when I am typing it manually? I have some authors that are institutions with a comma in their name, and Mendeley automatically recognizes them as a person, so the bibliography is not correctly inserted. Thank you.

I am a PhD. student and have been working on chapters in MS word 2013. already, i have inserted citations in chapters using word (inset citation) option. now i have recently installed mendeley and its word-plug-in. i wanted to know, if i am using insert citation using Mendeley-cite, then is it possible to merge the references which i have already inserted in word bibliography and document. also what about when i insert bibliography at the end using mendeley-cite, then would those citations which i inserted before, appear in bibliography. Also in word,we have option to see the complete reference, as it would appear in bibliography, using manage sources options, similarly, we can edit it, how is that possible in mendeley I shall be grateful for the guidance.

Is it possible for my documents to appear in APA citation style in my document library? It would help me if Mendeley would create APA citations I can copy & paste.

Blog post

I am new to Mendeley, so if I need to post this question in another area, please let me know, I won't take it personally! I have a blog post as a source. For the "type", since "Blog post" isn't an option, I had to choose "Web Page" since that's the closest thing I could find. When I tried to add the APA reference citation for it, it does not look anything like how the APA manual says it should be referenced. I even followed up with my instructor to make sure. The way it is supposed to be referenced is: Admin. (2011), March 17). What is a style guide? [Blog post] English editing. Retrieved from http://www.book-editing-services.com/blog/english- editing/what-is-a-style-guide The way Mendeley references using the APA style is: Admin. (n.d.). What is a style guide? Retrieved July 9, 2015, from http://www.book-editing-services.com/blog/english-editing/what-is-a-style- guide I can change it myself, but isn't the whole point of Mendeley to make referencing sources easier? Like I said, I'm new and have only used Mendeley for about a week, but if it can't even come close to proper formatting, I may need to look elsewhere.

import from endnote

Dear Mendeley Team I am trying to merge (import) EndNote references into my Mendeley database, exporting a .xlm file from Endnote and importing that file into Mendeley. This works fine, except: I have used the label field to label my groups - but that information is lost in Mendeley. Surprisingly only the last record contains that "label" information in the "tag" field. All other records do not contain anything in the "tag" field. can you help ? Thanks

How generate a bibliography in a document that already has the citations in it?

Dear friend(s), I just finished a book complete with notes. Then I learned of Mendeley, and I thought that I could use Mendeley to generate a bibliography. After downloading everything, viewing the introductory videos, and reading the manual, I'm getting the impression that there is no way for me to generate my bibliography if I did not insert the original full data in the notes using Mendeley. Am I right? I have also learned that there is some way to export a .pdf in Mendeley into Endnote; and I'm thinking that maybe Endnote can get bibliographic data out of my notes and use that to generate a draft bibliography. Does anyone happen to know if that is correct? (I just downloaded a trial version of Endnote, which looks more complicated to use. Mendeley seems very serviceable for many uses. Thank you for any advice you can give me. I believe in you all! Jeff

Hello, I´m wondering if there is a possibility to keep linkes active in Word when I copy a part of my text and add it somewhere else. All the time I do that, the references lose their links to the library. Thanks!
