-In Wordopen the "Word" menu in the top-left of the screen and select "Preferences". Click on "File Locations" under "Personal Settings" and click on "Startup" at the bottom of the list. This may list your Startup folder location+The default location of the Startup folder is ~/Library/Group Containers/UBF8T346G9.Office/User Content/Startup/Word. (~/Library refers to the Library folder within your home directory.) You can open it from the Finder by pressing Cmd-Shift-G and copying in the path. Alternatively, to navigate to it in Finder, hold down Option, click the Go menu, and select Library (which is hidden by default), and then follow the rest of the path.
  
-If there is no location listed, the default location is ~/Library/Group Containers/UBF8T346G9.Office/User Content/Startup/Word (i.e.the Library folder within your home directory). The ~/Library folder is hidden by defaultbut you can open it from the Finder by holding down Option, clicking the Go menu, and selecting Library. You can also press Cmd-Shift-G in Finder and copy in the default location to navigate to that folder.+If changes you make to the Startup folder aren't taking effect, you can confirm that Word isn't set to a different location. In Word, open the "Word" menu in the top-left of the screen and select "Preferences". Click on "File Locations" under "Personal Settings" and click on "Startup" at the bottom of the list. 
 + 
 +Generally, no location should be listed, causing Word to use the default location. If another location is listed (e.g., /Applications/Microsoft Office 2011/Office/Startup/Word, from an earlier version of Word), clearing the setting it and letting Word use the default location may fix installation problems and allow Zotero to install the plugin automatically going forward.
