Compatibility
EndNote X9.3 and 20 are compatible across platforms - you can create your library on a MAC, save it as a compressed library on a USB then open it on a PC (and vice-versa).
EndNote X9.3 and 20 are NOT backwards compatible with EndNote X9.2 and earlier versions so if you use your libraries at work and at home and have EndNote X9.2 or older at home, this will be a problem. You will need to upgrade older versions of EndNote to continue using your library in multiple locations. See here for further details.

Windows users
Windows 10 and Office 365 are required for EndNote 20.
Staff with work computers using Windows 7 can continue to use EndNote X9.3. EndNote 20 should be automatically deployed when computers are upgraded to the Windows 10 environment.
Clarivate recommends that EndNote libraries should never be stored in cloud-syncing folders such as Dropbox, OneDrive, Box, SugarSync, etc. Cloud-syncing folders corrupt EndNote libraries over time.
Macintosh users
When using a Mac, always use the Firefox web browser. If you are trying to direct export references to EndNote on a Mac, the only reliable way to do this is by using Firefox.
Apple's macOS versions 10.12 (Sierra), 10.13 (High Sierra), 10.14 (Mojave), 10.15 (Catalina) and 11.0 (Big Sur) contain features to save the contents of the Documents folder in iCloud and to "optimize" storage by storing less-used files only in iCloud online. However Clarivate advises that EndNote libraries stored in iCloud, even when stored on both the hard drive and online, are subject to corruption over time. For suggestions on how to safely store your documents or EndNote libraries, please refer to How to free up storage space on your Mac .
