Reference Manager version 11 was released on March 17, 2004.  Since version 11 was designed to work with the new PubMed infrastructure implemented last year, you can use version 11 to connect to and search PubMed.

August 12, 2003

The National Library of Medicine has implemented system infrastructure enhancements that have affected the PubMed Internet Search feature in Reference Manager version 9.0, 9.5, and 10.0.
 
Version 10.0 Single User Version Users:
An update patch is available at no charge from our website.  This update restores the PubMed Internet Search feature in Reference Manager 10.  Click here to download the 10.0.1 Single User Version Update Patch.
 
Version 10.0 Network Edition, Volume license & Multi-copy Users:
If you have a Volume license, Multi-copy license, or Network Edition of Reference Manager 10.0, we can send you a version 10.0.1 CD at no charge.  Click here to submit a request for a version 10.0.1 CD.
 
Version 9.0 / 9.5 Users:
The PubMed Internet Search feature in versions 9.0 and 9.5 no longer works.  Due to the magnitude of the engineering modifications necessary, we will not be able to update version 9.0 or 9.5 to restore  PubMed connectivity.  If this feature is important to you we recommend that you upgrade to version 11.

Options for Version 9.0 / 9.5 Users:

1. Upgrade to version 11 to continue to use the PubMed Internet Search feature.  Click here for upgrade information.
    
2. If you do not wish to upgrade you can still execute your search on the PubMed website and save your references into a text file that can be imported into Reference Manager. To do this:
   
   1. Go to the PubMed website in your web browser.
   
   2. Execute your searches to obtain search results (Select "Clipboard" from the "Send to" drop down menu to save records from multiple searches as you work).
   
   3. On the search results page, select "MEDLINE" in the dropdown menu next to the "Display" button.
   
   4. Choose "File" from the "Send to" drop down menu, and then click "Send to".
   
   5. Click on the "Save" button and save the file somewhere easily accessible such as your desktop (we recommend saving with the file extension *.txt).
   
   6. In Reference Manager, open the database where you would like these references saved.
   
   7. Under the References menu select "Import Text File".
   
   8. In the Filters field, select the Browse button [...] and select the Import filter called "PubMed.cap".
   
   9. In the Text File field, select the Browse button [...], and then select your downloaded *.txt file.
   
   10. Click the Import button and your references will be imported.
