EndNote for Mac

If ite While You Write (CWYW) is not installed, or the EndNote Toolbar is missing from Word, first try going to the Customizer to fix it.

EndNote 20 > Customizer

The Customizer allows you to select elements to install. To use this solution, check the install box for Cite While You Write, and then click the blue next button. Continue to click next at the prompts until the process is completed.

There is also an uninstall button on the lower part of the Customizer window, under the Component column. You can use this to uninstall Windows.

If you get this error it may be a result of Word not being able to run the Apple M1 as an Intel chip or it may be a true CWYW bundle issue. If you have an M1 Mac, try this first.

Template and Add-in problems

Check "Template and Add-ins" when

• you have multiple citation managers on a Mac
• your Normal.dotm file is corrupted
• you need to see if CWYW is unchecked or missing

Multiple Citation Managers

If you have another citation management programs installed on your computer, you will have to disable it in Word before Word will work with EndNote.

.    

Uncheck the other citation management ".dotm" then click ok.

Bundles file issues typically are present when you have an error message, or there is no toolbar in Word. Please try using the Customizer solution FIRST, as it is easier than this solution.
