want a vosviewer image

Hi,
I saved my file from ENnote with.RIS format, but in an online VOS viewer. It does not know it and the errors with not correct format. What should I do?

Dear All,
To conduct bibliometric research, I searched Scopus and Web of Science because not all articles are in a single database. I have 71 articles in Scopus and 6 in Web of Science. However, I'm unsure how to import both databases and generate the analysis together. Is it possible to import both files from different databases and develop a single analysis together? Thank you for your attention.

I have VOSviewer on my wisdows system and it works just fine.
It is a wonderful piece of software and thank you (developers) for the free access (unlike citespace or some others).
But there is a problem that I encounter on my mac.
The software does not run and the error pops up "Unable to load Java runtime environment".
I have Java installed (multiple times and various versions) and set up. But to no avail it seems.
In the trailing comments I found someone used the intel version of the java, even for M series macs; but that does not work (at least not now) as my mac won't let me install the intel version.
I would really like a solution or a setup guide. I have tried my best including resorting to all (that I could) youtube videos of java installation.
Any help would be really appreciated.
I am using the M3 version mac with the latest software.

Hi, I have an apple m4 and when i open the VOSviewer app it says it is unable to load the Java runtime environment. I have tried everything from downloading Java 8 to 21 to 24, as well as the respective x86-64 Intel versions following advice from a different comment below. What version of Java needs to be downloaded on Silicon Mac to make this work?
The download page needs an update very badly.

I will try this tool. Thank you

Hi,
I really like your viewer and would like to use it. Is there a way to import data from excel? This is where the final version of my SLR search is saved. I can't see how to import data from excel though.
Thanks,
Dani

When using excel file from Wos for analysis i get the error not able to find author columns. I did rename the columns as formatted in text export but this only giving me one option of analysis but not co-citation analysis.

Is there a way to use VISviewer on Windows if I don't have Oracle's Java version installed? For licensing reasons, we use another Java environment (Eclipse Temurin), but VISviewer does not recognize it.

Is there a way to use VISviewer on Windows if I don't have Oracle's Java version installed? For licensing reasons, we use another Java environment (Eclipse Temurin), but VISviewer does not recognize it.

I have questions about the thesaurus file in which multiple terms can be replaced with one overarching term. Unfortunately, using the file causes all added terms to be ignored and not replaced. I used the text file that is included when installing VOSviewer, with a tab as the delimiter between the columns.
Any ideas why the terms in the "replace by" column are not being used in the analysis?
Kind regards,
Helen

I'm running co-authorship analysis. When I load my Scopus data file and run the analysis, sometime I get a map with colored clusters and links as expected. However, sometimes I only get a map with nodes (mostly gray), and without colored clusters of authors or links. What could account for this?
Additionally, the map shows author names in two versions on the map: for example, jones, K. (correct) and jones K.; Why is the version of the nam with the semi-colon appearing?
Thanks.

I'm a macbook air arm user and i can't use vosviewer because of a java script error. how can i fix this?

Hi, I've been trying to use a CitNetExplorer network as input for VOSViewer. I managed to download pajek files from CitNetExplorer (from my network and clusters), and input those in VOSViewer. My only problem is that if I use these files as VOSViewer input, only the first author and publication year are available, and I can no longer view other information about articles nor click and open them from VOSViewer directly.
I can click and open these articles in CitNetExplorer, and when I create a map based on bibliographic data in VOSViewer, I can also click the articles and they open in my webbrowser. Just when I load the CitNetExplorer Pajek files it doesn't work. Does anyone have a solution for this? Would love to be able to open my articles from VOSViewer directly :)

Hello!
I've been having a problem for a few days and I need your help, please!
I want to perform a bibliometric analysis. If yesterday there were various errors, today I have another problem: I exported 2 files (tab delimited file) from Web of Science: 1 tab with documents from 1-500 and 1 tab with documents from 501-593. However, when I enter them in VOSviewer only 567 appear. Please, where am I wrong or what is happening? I haven't had this problem before!
Thank you!

I download txt file from Web of Science and when I upload the file on VOSviewer, I received an error message "cannot find author (AF/AU), address (C1), cited reference (CR), author keyword (DE), or Keyword plus (ID) field”.
Could you please help?

Hi
Is it possible to define our own clusters? More precisely, from a WoS export, I want to illustrate the network of collaborators with a clustering of the countries per continent: Europe, America, Asia, etc.
Thanks for your answer.

The impact of board diversity on the bank’s financial performance

Good day VosViewer team,
Thank you for an amazing resource. I use this frequently and have found it extremely hopeful in my own research. I have only used Vos when analysing thousands of articles, whereas my question below relates to the complete opposite issue.
I have been asked to review a manuscript and I have a specific question. In the Vos 2011 Manual, it notes that Vos is particularly helpful for mapping large amounts of items (100 - 200 items). The paper I am reviewing only has 35 articles and a very small number of terms. Is Vos an appropriate tool for such a small number of articles and what are the implications for results when the number of articles is so small?
Thank you!

In VOSviewer, when we conduct an analysis based on countries, does this refer to the country of the journal, the country of the authors' affiliation, or the country of the organizations? Thank you.

I was looking at your documentation. Web of Science now allows up to 1,000 records per export. Can you please update? Page 30. Thank you.

thank you

Thanks so much for all your work on VOSviewer. I'm working with an .ris file to construct a co-authorship network of 925 citations, I’m interested in visualizing a network of not only authors (.ris tag AU) but also editors (.ris tag A2). Is this possible?

Dear VOSviewer Support Team,
I hope this email finds you well.
I am currently using VOSviewer on my MacBook for analyzing data, but I am encountering an issue with reading CSV files. Specifically, when I upload a Scopus CSV file into VOSviewer, I consistently receive a warning message that says "incorrect use of quotes."
I would greatly appreciate your assistance in resolving this issue. Could you please provide guidance or suggestions on how to address the problem with CSV file formatting?
Thank you very much for your support.
Best regards,
Budiawan

Hi, I'm helping a researcher with Vosviewer. She wants to get a list in csv of the references with title, author, journal, year etc. of the clusters she has produced. We try, but only succeed in getting out what is visible in the cluster, eg authors, in a text file. Is there a way to get a list of all information about the references in a cluster?
Thanks in advance!
