Using EndNote is one way to manage your references. The software will keep track of your references in a library you create.
When you are searching Library databases you will be able to export your results to EndNote.
PDF copies of articles (if they have associated metadata), can be imported into EndNote which will complete the reference details automatically.
You can harvest PDFs to go with the references in your library using the Find Full Text function. You need to change your preference settings for this to work.
When you have references in your library you will be able to insert the references into your Word documents (Cite While You Write) to create in-text references and a reference list that will automatically be formated in the reference style of your choice.

Check out the training resources available from the publisher of EndNote (Clarivate Analytics).
Elsevier ScienceDirect and some other publishers have linking structures that will not work with EndNote. The pdf can be downloaded to the desktop and attached to the citation from there.
The password used for myendnoteweb.com and Web of Science/WoS has to be exactly the same (since WoS is now maintained by Clarivate Analytics). If they are not in sync you will get this message:
“Invalid email/password. Please try again”
This is particularly important in syncing content between desktop EndNote libraries and content in your myendnoteweb.com account.
If you have different passwords - unsync in EndNote (via Edit>Preferences>Sync), update password (use the WoS password), then sync plus use the WoS password to Sign in into the myendnoteweb.com

As you may know, Apple has publicly released macOS 10.15 Catalina. Apple has made the decision to drop all 32-bit application support with this release, which impacts EndNote.
If you do NOT plan on upgrading to macOS Catalina, you can continue running your current version of EndNote. This will ensure compatibility between your libraries at work and home and is strongly advised.
If you do wish to upgrade to macOS Catalina you will need to upgrade to EndNote X9.3.1. More information about the update is available here.
