New to Mendeley and like desktop however the iPad (Lite) is unworkable:
1. Every time I open it needs to resync all the 1400 articles in my database which takes too long
2. Once you open a reference it asks to confirm details (database is an import from Zotero) for each and every article - and then you cannot get back to the librarty without closing the app, reinitiating and resyncing. This renders iPad Lite totally unworkable in the real world
3. The search function on iPad does not work. You type in two authors names, you get nothing when clearly those two authors have written articles. You can only search with one author's name. You cannot search by theme (e.g. return on investment) either. You can on desktop. This renders the iPad application of very limited value
I am evaluating Mendeley because of its iPad application but the Lite version either is not really adequate or I have made some errors in installation and set up.
Please advise
