END NOTE FOR MAC


Have been using it for my reference manager for the past few months, after getting a tutorial from Dr. Jamaluddin. End Note for Mac is slightly more difficult to use as compared to Windows. For windows, it is just click on the download citation manager and then open the file in End Note, the article will be downloaded into End Note. For Mac, it need to be downloaded to text. Then we have to import the text file. Until now, i haven't managed to import any reference yet. As for the Microsoft Word integration, i couldn't find any link for the End Note integration.

So, as for now, when i want to download new reference, i would use End Note for Windows. Then i will copy or sync the End Note file for my paper into my Mac.
This is possible since i am using Boot Camp in my Macbook, with both Mac and Windows XP Pro installed. For sync, i would use Chronosync.

This will continue, unless someone can teach me how to use End Note for Mac. Or when i have a good knowledge and skills to use End Note for Mac.
This is the weakness of Mac.

Maybe you can ask the university to get you one. Then teach me how to use it.

Nolah....not Mac. I want Thinkpad. Mac will reduce my productivity. Statistics work is not suitable using Mac.

You'll lose productivity with a Mac not because you cannot do stats, Jamal. But because you'll be an evangelist who wants to convert every Windows user to a Mac. :P

It is your choice to use either one.
