You only need to set it in one place, just make sure that you use the  
"full path" to the file, not relative path. Same goes for  
TM_LATEX_BIB. Btw, if you bib file is loaded via \bibliography{} into  
either the master file or a file included in it, then the citation  
command should be able to find it by itself, you shouldn't set  
TM_LATEX_BIB at all.

So, this is what I tried  and it worked just fine for me:

Structure:

top folder
	- "main" folder
		- ab.tex
		- test.bib
	- "includes" folder
		- other.tex

ab.tex is the main file. It contains:

\include{../includes/other.tex}
\bibliography{test.bib}

TM_LATEX_MASTER is set to the full filepath to ab.tex, which in my  
case is something like: /Users/haris/Desktop/testing/9_Appendix/main/ 
ab.tex
In this setting, the citation command seems to work just fine for me.  
Does a similar setting work for you?
