Want to add items from Google Scholar to your EndNote library? 

Change one setting and "Import into EndNote" will be added to each item in Google Scholar.  Visit Scholar Preferences and in the Bibliography Manager section select "Show links to export citations into" and choose EndNote from the drop-down menu.  Click "Save Preferences" and you're done.  Next time you search on Google Scholar, you'll see EndNote as an option.

To export records from Web of Science, simply click the EndNote button.  Some Macs will save the exported file instead of opening it directly into EndNote.  If your Web of Science export results in a saved .ciw file, simply go to EndNote, click File->Import, select the .ciw file and choose "ISI-CE" as the Import Option.

If you want to export directly from PubMed:

1. Perform your search in PubMed and select the citations to import.
2. Click the "Send to:" link and select "Citation Manger" and then click "Create File".
3. If you're running EndNote X6, this should import directly into EndNote.  If you need to pick an application, select "ResearchSoft Direct Export Helper".
4. If you're using an older version of Endnote, save the file generated by Pubmed, then open your EndNote library and select File->Import.
   1. Browse for and select the file you saved from PubMed.
   2. Under Import Option choose "PubMed (NLM)".  If this doesn't appear on your list select "Other Filters" and then select "PubMed (NLM)" on this longer list.
   3. Click the Import button.

To export from CINAHL, MedLine and other EBSCO databases, Click Save, and select Direct Export to EndNote.

EndNote Web comes with two tools to let you save web references to your library. A bookmarklet and a firefox plugin are both available

Both can be configured to save to either EndNote Online or EndNote, but please note, if you use the bookmarklet to save to EndNote the bookmarklet will show you are saving a reference of type "Web Page" but when it is imported into EndNote it may show up as a "Journal Article" instead. You'll need to change the reference type. This problem doesn't happen if you save to EndNote Online.

There is also an Endnote client for iPad (which is not included in license).  The app is currently $3.99.
