A big part of the problem is that Endnote's BibTeX export filter isn't 
too great. I don't have much experience with it, but take a close look 
and make sure the syntax it produces is correct.  I'm attaching the one 
I have, though I don't remember if I did anything to improve it.  If I 
remember right, you need to specify the cite key in the Endnote label 
field.   Try that with a few records, export them with this file, and 
see if that helps.
