Re: biblatex | Bibliography Error

Don't think I can help. That looks like something about your installation of TeXLive -- tlmgr can't find the database on your system? Maybe look into TeX Live docs and support

Good luck!

Re: biblatex | Bibliography Error

No, I don't know the release schedule for TeXLive. But I think your problem isn't that TeXLive is frozen, but that for some reason your tlmgr isn't getting you the most recent version -- if I could get it, you should be able to as well. Read in the tlmgr doc for how to install/reinstall/force ...

biblatex | Bibliography Error

I did update my installation a couple of days ago using Tex Utility on Mac, which uses tlmgr. I think the "TeX Live 2010 is frozen forever and will no longer be updated" applies to the programs and packages in TeX Live, not to your installation. If that's right, then that leaves

(a) your system is ...

Re: biblatex | Bibliography Error

Here is the complete documentation for tlmgr, including how to update some or all packages, or to update tlmgr itself:

Re: biblatex | Bibliography Error

I just ran into the same thing a couple of days ago (the \addbibresource command threw an error). I'm using TexLive 2010 on Mac OS X. I asked the TeX Live Utility (which was installed along with TeXLive) to update its packages, it did, and now biblatex seems to work as it's supposed to. (Sorry, I ...

Re: BibTeX @Incollection missing 'title' entry

Just tried TexShop 2.43 on a document with a single reference to an article in a collection, and it typeset it correctly.

Perhaps if you provide a copy of the bib entry that causes this problem? An MWE?

Re: Math Reviews number clickable

Try using hyperref? There are some recent threads here on using it with bibtex.

Re: Missing information in references leads to sloppy look.

LaTeX with the plain bibliographystyle correctly formats a bib rec that has no year or page number. I know that's no help to you, but it suggests that the fault lies with the style, not with LaTeX. Perhaps there is a different style that is "close enough" for this journal? Or you might try making a ...
