You can usually remove yourself from lists you have joined by following the link at the end of (nearly) all list messages. It spares the admin the errand. From my iPhone On 4 Jun 2011, at 21:26, Robert Mutel robert-mu...@uiowa.edu wrote: Please remove me from the bibdesk daily summary

you are correct, it is not a BibDesk question. This is an outcome of your bibstyle so you might want to check how exactly your style handles a repeated citation of the same item. ah, that must be it, hadn't thought of it that way. I'll try to find out more but now I know where to start - thanks.

Alternately, you can keep the .bib file in a central location that is searched by kpsewhich. In Terminal, try `kpsewhich -show-path=bib` to see the possibilities. Or just use the full path in your \bibliography{} command. ok, clearly I am out of my depth! I created ~/Library/texmf/bibtex/bib

1)You can just specify the full (or relative) path to a single bib file instead of placing a copy in every directory. All my .tex files specify \bibliography{/Users/ahm/Papers/All} for the bib. Or you can place a symbolic link (from Terminal: ln -s /Users/ahm/Papers/ All.bib .) instead of the
