Re: Cmd-Y not working after upgrading to Mojave

Finally, I solved the problem....no, not really. I downgraded to High Sierra, and everything works now. As a summary, my experience of Bookends in Mojave lasts for around 3 days. First problem: Cannot switch back to Mellel. Citations have to be manually dragged to Mellel. Second problem: after insta...

Re: Cmd-Y not working after upgrading to Mojave

After downloading the Bookends 13 and run it (without replacing my Bookends 12.8.4), it went from bad to worse. I bumped into this: An error has occurred: nil object Click the E-Mail button to send your comments and the error details to Sonny Software. Click Cancel to dismiss this dialog. And then I...

Re: Cmd-Y not working after upgrading to Mojave

Thanks for the reply. So this is nothing related to the version of Bookends, right? Will it help if I upgrade to Bookends 13, I mean.

Cmd-Y not working after upgrading to Mojave

Hi, I have already looked through the few threads with similar problem. I am using Mojave Mac 10.14, Mellel 4.1.3b1, and Bookend 12.8.4. Before upgrading to Mojave, my cmd-Y switchings between Mellel and Bookends work very well. I checked my setting in Privacy/Automation and allowed Mellel and Booke...

Adding of a new reference type doesn't work

Hi, I tried to add a new reference type which I call "Book-No-Numbers" in both the "Turabian" and "Turabian Footnotes". I copied the content from my previous reference type (Book) and deleted the last comma at the end. Then I went to the Preferences Pane and then edited...

Importing references suddenly won't work

Hi, I have been using Bookends for years. One function i often use is importing .ris format reference as exported from web or Zotero. But today my bookends 12.7.6 suddenly can't do that. The .ris file in the "import window" remains grey in color, which cannot be selected. When I open an ol...

Re: After upgrade, all self-defined formats disappear?!

Hi Jon,

Thank you for your clarification. BTW, is there a place talking about his new feature....sort of like a manual?

Re: After upgrade, all self-defined formats disappear?!

I think it is still not working. I upgraded Bookends, and yes, I saw the modified formats were still there....but when I scanned a document from Mellel, the effects are gone. That is, the scanning treated my references in a unmodified English Books way. I am making some Chinese formats using the Tur...
