Important news about Word 2016 and RefWorks Write n Cite for Mac users

Refworks Write n Cite will NOT work on Apple OSX 10 Yosemite running Word 2016. Several work arounds are available but they require downloading Word 2011 and using the One Line One Cite View in RefWorks. So basically users will not get the easy way to drop in references and format your bibliography automatically in Word.

In addition, Mac users running 10.9 and up Yosemite need to download Java to their computer to install Write in Cite.

d. Please make sure you have a current installation of Java on your computer by visiting the Java download site. (Note: an update of your Java will request the installation of a third-party toolbar for Ask.com. You will need to be aware that you need to decline the installation of this toolbar to avoid its installation.)

Mac Users:  Please make sure to verify Java is installed on your computer as the newest operating systems offered by Apple, OS X 10.9 and OS X 10.10, do not include Java.  To check if your computer has the latest version of Java installed please open the Safari web browser and visit,http://java.com/en/download/installed.jsp. Note: If you are running OS X 10.9.5 or OS X 10.10 Yosemite, please download Java from Apple's support site directly by visiting, http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1572.

RefWorks Group Code Changes

Good news RefWorks users!

The RefWords Group Code is no longer needed after Monday, December 9th, 2013.

What this means to you:

• Current RefWorks users, simply log in to your RefWorks account - removal of the group code will not affect how you normally log in.
• New RefWorks users must be on-campus or (accessing RefWorks through off-campus login) when creating an account.
• Write n Cite 4 users: the need for a group code to log into WNC4 will be removed in an upcoming release. Until then, users will log in with WNC4 using the current method. 
• WNC III users (old version) still needs group code, login name and password. 

For questions email medref@tulane.edu.
