Your purchase of EndNote entitles you to a two-year free subscription to EndNote online—our online version of EndNote desktop. Your EndNote online subscription is valid for two years from the date after you register and activate your account.
You may set up an EndNote online account for each valid EndNote installation—one account for each unique EndNote serial number. For institutions with a site license, the site serial number allowed the appropriate number of EndNote online accounts.
The Sync process allows you to synchronize the references in your EndNote desktop library with the references in your EndNote online library. You must first set up an EndNote online account to activate the Sync process.
There are three methods for setting up an EndNote online account.
From the main Library window, click either the Sync or the Share buttons that appear in the toolbar to open an EndNote online login dialog. Click the Sign Up button to begin the registration and activation process.
In EndNote, go to the EndNote Edit menu and select Preferences > Sync Preferences. Click the Enable Sync button to go to the EndNote online login dialog. Click the Sign Up button to begin the registration and activation process. Follow the online instructions.
Select Configure Sync from the Groups pane to open the desktop activation process and sign in to or sign up for an Endnote online account
