EndNote 20 Troubleshooting

Mac Users: I can't find my library?

After downloading EndNote20, you may not see a new library right away. Follow the below steps to open and create a new EndNote library on the Mac for the program to be visible:

Step 1 | Run the EndNote 20 application from your "Applications" folder.

Step 2 | Now you would be able to see "EndNote 20" on the top left corner of your screen (beside the “Apple” icon).

Step 3 | Click on "File" > "New" > you may rename your EndNote library and save it locally on your computer (Do not save it on the cloud storage or location synced to cloud storage such as iCloud/DropBox/OneDrive), do not save it as a "Package" as well. 

Step 4 | You may then click on "Save".

You would be able to see the newly created library after completing these steps.
