I have downloaded v80 and v82 .exe files. But I get this, for both versions, when I try to install.​

Windows protected your PC Microsoft Defender SmartScreen prevented an unrecognized app from starting. Running this app might put your PC at risk.

App: setup-v82.0.7357.40407.exe Publisher:

You should be able to click More Info and tell it to install anyway

I am through installing and I thought it would ask me to login but it asks for esc, backup/restore. What should i do (I previously tried v79 and both account and guest library. I also have web account)

jordanharp commented 3 years ago

(1) Pressing esc will launch Qiqqa. (2) Qiqqa open source does not use web accounts. You'll want to use the old Qiqqa to sync a copy of your web libraries to your local machine, then add them to open source Qiqqa. I do this on a local drive and then periodically backup (from that opening screen) onto my OneDrive. So far no problems.

ravindradonde commented 3 years ago

Hi, I am Ravindra, my big thank you to you for developing a very nice reference citation qiqqa app. I am using qiqqa since 2016, at that time qiqqa was working fine, but now when I was shifted to a new and open-source version i.e. setup-v81 and v82.exe. I am facing a big problem with BibTeX sniffer tools. The BibTeX sniffer not working correctly, it frequently showing google scholar Recaptcha error. and it not correctly visible Recaptcha in qiqq browser it shows that the browser not supported.

Please suggest to me what should I do?

jordanharp commented 3 years ago

Yes, that is correct. Open source Qiqqa does not use usernames or web libraries.

@ravindradonde : your question has been moved to its own issue: #225. See answer there.

One question or problem per issue, please. Thanks!

GerHobbelt commented 3 years ago

@ronved : nope, unfortunately there's no mobile Qiqqa. Quantisle had a mobile app back in the day, but that code has not been open sourced and I have no idea what the mobile version offered, functionality-wise. (As I've been considering X-Platform given #215, I wonder what Qiqqa could do as a mobile app, as keeping a local library like the desktop version is not feasible at least for peeps like me with multi-GB libraries.)

Anyway, resources are limited; mobile is being kept in mind but is currently not the top priority, unless someone else comes in and does #2 + #7 and friends for us first. 😉

WARNING

Note this from the qiqqa.com commercial website (emphasis mine):

After 10 years of your support we have decided to make Qiqqa open source so that it can be grown and extended by its community of thousands of active users.

NB: We will be discontinuing Web Library support for Qiqqa at the end of 2020. So you’ll have one year within which to install the latest version of Open Source Qiqqa (which is improving daily), migrate your Web Libraries into Intranet Libraries, and enjoy all the Premium and Premium+ features of Qiqqa for free (except Web Libraries)!

Web Libraries (Qiqqa cloud storage) will be discontinued 'at the end of 2020'.

The only way to access your REMOTE = CLOUD-STORED libraries is by using Qiiqa v79, as the Cloud access code was never open sourced.

The way that Open Source Qiqqa (v80 and later) appear to access your Web Libraries is by discovering the local copies of those libraries, which Commercial Qiqqa (v79 and older) kept (manually) synchronized.

Therefore, if you doubt or know your local copy of your Web Library to be out of sync with your cloud-based Web Library (because you or others updated/synced that cloud-based library from other machines after your last sync action on this one) you MUST install Commercial Qiqqa v79 (available here among other places) to log into your Qiqqa cloud account, synchronize your Web Libraries with your local copy and then re-install Qiqqa Open Source (v82 preferentially).

Qiqqa versions v79, v80 and v82 can be installed over one another without issue as they are binary compatible re Qiqqa local library files, so there's no expected harm done in installing v79 over v82, particularly if you limit your activity to syncing Web Libraries.

(By the way: the setup.exe will certainly yak about you installing Qiqqa over a 'newer' version. Disregard and continue.)

Then, once you re-installed v82, it will discover your local Web Library copy again (now synchronized) and you should be good to go.

Do note that the name of the library as shown in v82 might be UUID-like gobbledigook instead of the proper title you gave it back in the day of Commercial Qiqqa and v79. The contents should be available untrammeled though.

For those who later visit these issues in search for answers:

when you have trouble installing Qiqqa (including inability to run the downloaded installer), here's a couple of documents to help you:

These docs will later also appear in the qiqqa.org website.
