 You can see which translator Zotero tries to use by hovering your cursor over the "Save to Zotero" icon in the address bar of your browser. The tooltip shows the translator name between parentheses.
-===== Issues Affecting All Translators =====
-  * The Safari Connector currently requires Zotero to be open. Saving directly to the server from Safari is not possible.
-  * Zotero Connectors are only guaranteed to work with stable releases of Firefox, Chrome, and Safari. If you're running a pre-release version of a browser and you're experiencing issues saving items, please downgrade to the current stable release.
-  * Compatibility with older versions of browsers is generally maintained for some time, but this is not guaranteed, and using an outdated browser is insecure. If you're experiencing issues saving items to Zotero from an outdated browser, please update to the latest stable release. For Firefox, Zotero also maintains compatibility with currently supported versions of [[https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/organizations/faq/|Firefox ESR (Extended Support Release)]]
-  * When using Zotero and accessing gated resources through a proxy service (for off-campus access) Zotero is not able to download PDFs served from a different host name than the current webpage. This affects, among other sites, EBSCO, ScienceDirect, ProQuest, and SpringerLink.
 ===== Translators with Major Issues =====

   * Old Baileys
      * Frequently fails silently, due to an issue with google ads. Works reliably with an ad-blocker add-on enabled. See [[http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/20488/old-bailey-court-cases-not-downloading/|this thread]] for developments
-  * Primo
-     * Some Primo catalogs will fail when trying to import articles.
+  * Google Scholar
+      * Google Scholar will lock you out to protect its data against automated downloads when you use its service a lot (which may be as quickly as saving three pages of results). See [[ adding_items_to_zotero#large-scale_imports_from_databases|here for a workaround]] for large downloads
 ===== Translators with Minor Issues =====
    * Proquest
-     * When downloading large amounts of articles from search results, ProQuest starts to require users to input a captcha to continue to articles. Once that point is reached, grabbing itmes from search results is no longer possible with Zotero. Individual items will continue to work.
