If you need to transfer your libraries from one computer to another, you have basically two choices. But before you start, please make a backup: Make a backup of your library
- Sync the library via your EndNoteOnline account.
- Move/Copy your library to the new location.
1. Sync your library
Here is an article explaining how you can use your EndNoteOnline Account to move your library to e.g. a new computer: How to sync with existing EndNoteOnline account on a new computer
2. Move/Copy your library
We recommend doing a compressed file of your library and copy this file to the new location.
There are, however, some things to notice:
- Make sure you copy both parts of the library, the *.enl file and the *.DATA folder. See this article for details and how to make a compressed library: Make a backup of your library
- Only copy a non-active library, which means make sure EndNote is closed.
- Place your library in a safe place on the new computer, not synced by anything else. See this article for details: Storage location for Endnote libraries
- Important! Do not use iCloud, DropBox, OneDrive, SuiteSync, GoogleDrive, Box, etc.
