Hello. I'm using BibDesk (v1.6.4 - a very recent update to a long-existing installation) along with TexShop (v3.52) on a Mac Powerbook Pro under OS X10.8.5. I have been working on a document for several weeks and using the same bib file for several years. This morning, I entered a new reference into the database. This is the first use I've made of BibDesk since the update to 1.6.4. I added a citation to the new reference in the document and compiled it. For some reason BibTeX cannot find the new reference. I get the message: I tried re-entering the new reference into the database, and get the same warning (and changing the cite key). I next tried substituting an existing reference from the database into the document (citing it instead - and being sure that reference was not cited anywhere else in the document) and it worked fine; the citation appears properly in the document. I then tried entering a dummy reference into the database and citing it in the document. This failed with the same warning.This is BibTeX, Version 0.99d (TeX Live 2014) The top-level auxiliary file: RevisedVerifcationNoteV3a.aux The style file: model2-names.bst Database file #1: ./GLReferences.bib Warning--I didn't find a database entry for "AuguEtAl:2014" (There was 1 warning) In summary, it appears that: If I refer to a reference that was in the database before I updated BibDesk, I have no problem. If I refer to a reference that I added after the update, BibTex can't find it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Bibdesk-users mailing list [hidden email] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bibdesk-users |
Make sure the .bib file referenced from TeX is the same one bibdesk is saving?

Thanks, Ken. That was exactly the problem. I posted a follow-up after I discovered that I had messed up. I appreciate the reply.

Hi Justin - thanks, yes I did save the .bib file. It turns out that I had two .bib files with the same name in different directories and had referenced the wrong one in the document. I posted an update explaining my error. I appreciate your reply. BarryOn Tue, Jul 28, 2015 at 8:17 PM, Justin C. Walker <[hidden email]> wrote:
