EndNote

| Question 14: When I try to search PubMed or the Web
of Science in EndNote using a connection file I get "No Matching References
Found" when I know it should return some results or I get a time-out error
message after two minutes. My computer uses a proxy server. How can I fix
this?
Answer:
Windows
EndNote 5*, 6, and 7 use the proxy settings
in the Windows Internet Options for HTTP-based connections such as the
Web of Science, so make sure these are set correctly to recognize your
proxy server:
- Open the “Internet Options” applet on the Windows Control Panel (or
select Tools / Internet Options in Internet Explorer).
- Select the Connections tab and click the LAN Settings button.
- Make sure that the “Use a proxy server…” box is checked and that the
address and port number of the proxy server are entered correctly.
- If the problems persist, click on the “Advanced…” button in the LAN
Settings dialog. Under “Do not use proxy server for addresses beginning
with:” type the URL of the site you are trying to search (either PubMed
or Web of Science). Click OK and try the search again.
Macintosh OSX
Try adding the PubMed/Web of Science URL to the proxy exceptions list
in your System Preferences.
- Open System Preferences and select Network / Proxies tab.
- Type the URL of the remote database under “Bypass proxy settings for
these Hosts & Domains”. Also make certain that "Use Passive FTP Mode
(PASV)" is not checked.
* If you are using EndNote 3, 4, or 5, please
note that these versions of EndNote are no longer able to connect to and
search PubMed directly. Please click here for
