Endnote X6 problem with Office 2013 Preview x64

EndNote EndNote General
21

Thank Henrry, It’s really useful

I have tried with Endnote X5, Word (office professional Plus 2013), Win 7 Ultimate (32-bit). I’ve changed the command you guided us (regsvr32.exe “C:\Program Files (X86)\Common Files\ResearchSoft\CWYW\16\EndNote Cwyw.dll” ) to

(regsvr32.exe “C:\Program Files \Common Files\ResearchSoft\CWYW\15\EndNote Cwyw.dll” )

The Endnote tab reappear.

Sincerely,

The developers have advised that because of the version of the Visual C++ run time components used by Microsoft Office 2013, EndNote is not able to register the DLL file. However they provided a workaround.

First go to http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=26368

Download and install vcredist_x64.exe.

Repair or uninstall EndNote.

Open a command prompt window as administrator. On Windows XP click on Start > All Programs > Accessories. Right click on the Command prompt icon and click on Run as. Put in the Administrator password.

On Windows Vista or Windows 7 click on Start and in the “search” box type cmd. Right click on cmd.exe and choose Run as Administrator.

In the command prompt window type regsvr32.exe “C:\Program Files (X86)\Common Files\ResearchSoft\CWYW\16\EndNote Cwyw.dll” and press ENTER.

When you receive the message that the registration succeeded you can type “exit” to close the command prompt window and start Word. You should now see the EndNote X6 tab.

This should also work with EndNote X4.0.2 and EndNote X5.

Because Word 2013 is only a preview release and not the final release, there will not be any patches or updates to make EndNote load normally in Word 2013 Preview. Once the final release comes out there will be testing to determine what needs to be done.

I have Endnote X5 with office 2013 64 bit. I have wasted the past couple of hours just reading these posts and trying to follow the directions. Still it doesn’t work. Can’t you guys just release a simple patch which solves this problem? AT LEAST just write one page on the End note wbsite which tells us A-Z what we should do. Many of us work under strict deadlines and palying with all these things is real hassle for us.

http://endnote.com/kb/126327 and from there to this http://endnote.com/kb/83058.

where you will find this section:

Note:   EndNote X4/X5/X6  were not designed to be compatible with  Office 2013 , as they were developed before the release of  Word 2013. Versions designed to be compatible with  Office and Word 2010  ( EndNote X4, X5 and X6 ) appear to work with  2013. Note that a Windows RT computer can run  Office 2013 , but it cannot run EndNote.

Note:  If you have  EndNote X4 , be sure to install the X4.0.2 update if you have the  64-bit version of Word 2013 first.

The tools may need to be manually added to Word if they do not appear:

  1. Browse to the  Word 2013  folder “C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office15.”  Note:  If Microsoft Office is not listed under “Program Files (x86),” look under just “Program Files.”
  2. Right-click WINWORD.EXE and select “Run as Administrator” to open  Word 2013  with Administrative rights.
  3. Go to the File Menu and choose “Options.”
  4. Select “Add-Ins” from the list at the left.
  5. At the bottom of the Add-Ins page, there is a “Manage:” dropdown list. Leave this on “COM Add-ins” and select Go.
  6. On the COM Add-Ins page, Choose the “Add…” button.
  7. Browse to the following location and select the “EndNote CWYW.dll” file.
    For  EndNote X6:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\ResearchSoft\Cwyw\16
    For EndNote X5:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\ResearchSoft\Cwyw\15
    For EndNote X4:
    C:\Program Files(x86)\Common Files\ResearchSoft\Cwyw\14

If you do not have a “Program Files (x86)” folder, look in  “Program Files” for the Common Files folder.

Note:  If you have common files installed in a different location, you would need to find this CWYW folder in that other location.

  1. Once you have Selected the “EndNote CWYW.dll” file, choose OK and OK again to close the COM Add-Ins screen. The EndNote tools should now be in Word.

Note:  If you receive a message that EndNote CWYW.dll was not a valid Office add-in when attempting to add the COM Add-in, there is an update you need from Microsoft:

  1. Exit Word.
  2. Download “vcredist_x64.exe” from: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=26368
  3. Install the “vcredist_x64.exe” update file.
  4. Follow the steps above to add the Endnote Cwyw.dll file in Word.

If the installation problems persist, you can replace the files in the Common Files folder to make to sure the appropriate files are copied for your version of EndNote, the version of Windows and the version of Word. You should replace the existing files. Please follow the appropriate directions below depending on your version of Windows (32 or 64-bit) and your version of Word (32 or 64-bit):
