Q: Pages 5.0 and Endnote (Cite While You Write)

Hello fellow Endnote/Pages 5.0 Users!

 

I've just upgraded to Pages 5.0 yesterday to find that Endnote X7 is not really functioning properly with Pages.

 

I think its Pages 5.0 problem as concurrently I am running both Pages 4.3 and Pages 5.0 with same Endnote Library.  Impirting citations (to footnotes and appropriately to Bibliography) on 4.3 works perfectly, as it should. 

 

However, on Pages 5.0, I can import citation only in-text and not in the footnotes section (chicago style with superscripts).  Further, it does not add to the Bibliography section at the last page of the document; as it did for 4.3 and Endnote.

 

Any takes?

 

This is very frustrating.

    I think that's right - Endnote make no claim about itself working with Pages. The (bogus) claim comes only from Apple Pages for Mac: About the Pages EndNote plug-in - Apple Support

     

    I'm failing to get Endnote's (X7 2.1) Cite While You Write to work in iWork Pages (5.5.2).

     

    My APA6-format Bibliography comes out with the wrong formatting (e.g., 'and' instead of '&', and underlined Journal title, where it should be italicised).

     

    APA6 still is correctly specified in Endnote's formatting options (so it's not just a matter of tweeking the format). If I right click a reference in Endnote and Copy Formatted, then Paste into Pages, the reference comes out correctly.

     

    It's only when I use CWYW, that I get the formatting screw up.

     

    Note 1- Pages09 CWYW does work properly (I want to still to new Pages because I'm collaborating in the cloud).

     

    Note 2- I'd read on Endnote's Help pages that formatting comes out oddly with many fonts and to use either Verdana or Times NR. I am using Times NR and am getting the wrong format

    I too want to use Pages over using Microsoft Word, partly because I write some on my iPad and iPhone while away from my iMac. I have come up with my solution to the EndNote plugin issue, not to use it. I will use the EndNote application to properly format my bibliography entry and just manually drag and drop it into Pages. This is an imperfect solution, but it eliminates the improperly formatting form the plugin and I can still use Pages. I just hope that it will be easy enough to manage when I get to my dissertation.
