II. RELEASE NOTES
----------------------------------------------------

Compatibility Issues:

* EndNote X6 libraries are not backwards compatible with EndNote 7 or lower. When opening a library from EndNote 5, 6, or 7, EndNote X6 will convert the library to the current format and leave the original library unchanged. EndNote X6 libraries consist of both an .enl file and a .DATA folder that must be kept together when sharing libraries.

* EndNote X6 users who have the language sort set to Korean may lose their database sort settings when opening EndNote X6 libraries with EndNote 8, 9, X, X1, or X2. Sort settings will likely default to the first item in the sort list - "System Default" or "English". 

Documentation Notes:

*This EndNote installation includes a short electronic manual, which is installed in your EndNote program folder: GettingStartedGuide.PDF is available to get you up and running. You can open and view these files with the free Adobe Acrobat Reader.

*The EndNote Help file is available from the "Help" menu. Most windows and dialogs also include context-sensitive help from a "Help" button or by pressing the F1 key. If you have an Internet connection, you can automatically open hot-linked URLs with your default browser.

Technical Notes for Microsoft Word XP:

* Smart Tags must be enabled to run EndNote's Instant Formatting feature. 

* The latest Microsoft Service Update should be installed on your computer.  To download this service update, go to http://office.microsoft.com/ProductUpdates/default.asp.

III. INSTALLATIONS
----------------------------------------------------
Upgrade Notes:
* While it is not required, it is strongly advised to uninstall older versions of EndNote before you install EndNote X6.  Before you begin, back up custom styles, filters, connection files and databases. Uninstall your older EndNote by going to "Start > Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs."

Demo Notes:
About the Demo:
* This is a fully functional trial version of EndNote X6. You will have 30 days after you first use the program to evaluate EndNote and all of its features. After those 30 days are up, the program will revert to a feature-restricted EndNote Viewer. 

After the program reverts to an EndNote Viewer, you will still be able to open EndNote libraries, search, sort, and print references. However, with the EndNote Viewer you cannot:
- Add or edit references in a library that has 10 or more references already in it.
- Format more than 10 citations in a paper
- Retrieve more than 10 references from a remote database
- Import more than 10 references
- Export more than 10 references at one time
- Sync with EndNote Web

You can purchase a product code and convert your installation to the full unrestricted version of EndNote X6 by clicking Activate EndNote from the Help menu. 

For an EndNote tutorial, refer to the EndNote Getting Started Guide, an Adobe Acrobat "PDF" file installed in the EndNote Demo program folder. You will need to download a copy of Acrobat Reader (from Adobe) to read this guide. You can find the Acrobat Reader at http://www.adobe.com/prodindex/acrobat/readstep.html

* Installing the Demo
If you have a full, upgrade, or volume version of EndNote installed on your system, please note that the EndNote Demo installer will replace Cite While You Write related files. When your demo period has expired or if you choose to use Cite While You Write or Services from the full version, follow the instructions provided in the Installing Cite While You Write Support in Word topic in the help file.

Volume Notes:
* About the Volume
EndNote Volume edition is licensed under a volume purchase agreement. Unless you are a designated distributor under this license, you may not distribute this software to anyone inside or outside of your site. This copy of EndNote is registered to your institution. You may register individually to receive announcements about product updates.

* Installing the Volume
An EndNote volume license product key can only be used when the MSI installer is run in Administrative Mode. The installer will need to be run using the following command from a command line:   msiexec /a ENX6Inst.msi

In Administrative Mode, the installer will prompt for the volume product key which generates the license.dat file.  The license.dat file must accompany the installer for volume license redistribution in order to bypass the product key installation prompt.

Optionally, one may check the "Perform administrative installation" checkbox to get an output of the complete installer contents, along with the license.dat; leaving this option unchecked, will produce the license.dat file and the ENX6Inst.msi.

For more details, see Microsoft MSI documentation, the About Mass Program Installations EndNote help topic, or www.endnote.com/msi.
