Downloading, Installing and Activating Endnote X9.3.1 on Macintosh

*For Windows please see this instruction

 

macOS Catalina Compatibility 

As you may be aware, Apple has released macOS 10.15 Catalina. Apple has made the decision to drop all 32-bit application support with this release, which will impact EndNote.

To check what version of EndNote X9 you have installed, please launch EndNote and then click on the EndNote menu on the top right. A Catalina-ready version of EndNote will read “About EndNote X9.3.1” If X9.2 or earlier version of EndNote is listed here, it will not be compatible with Catalina.

If you have already upgraded to Catalina OS before updating your EndNote program to EndNote X9.3.1, the EndNote app will be disabled in the Applications folder. To fix this, you would need to reinstall the EndNote X9 version with the latest update (EndNote X9.3.1).

*If you’d prefer not to upgrade to EndNote X9.3.1, you may keep working on your current macOS. However, if you upgrade to macOS Catalina, your older version of EndNote is not going to work.
