Mojave OS
The new Mac OS system, Mojave, includes new Security & Privacy functions which can prevent EndNote CWYW from being able to correctly automate. This can result in the toolbar not working properly and inserting unformatted citations or give error messages. To correctly set these options:
High Sierra OS & Microsoft Office 2016 must upgrade to EndNote X8.2
If you have updated Microsoft Word and the EndNote toolbar has disappeared, update your EndNote software.
To update your X8 version, go to the "EndNote" menu and choose "Check for Updates".
Sierra OS
Sierra users must use EndNote X8 or X8.2

Download the files linked below and follow these instructions to set up the file associations for the file formats listed above.
