EndNote 9 is completely compatible with EndNote 8. Documents and libraries created with EndNote 8 can be used with EndNote 9 without conversion. Libraries created in EndNote 7 (or earlier versions) will be converted into EndNote 8/9 format when they are first opened (with Endnote 8/9). Libraries created in EndNote 9 cannot be used with EndNote 7 or earlier versions. Documents formatted with EndNote 9 cannot be edited or reformatted with EndNote 7 or earlier versions.

No conversion is necessary between Windows and Macintosh operating systems. Endnote libraries created (or updated) in Endnote 9 using Windows can be used by Endnote 8 or 9 on Macintosh.
