Blast - looks like code signing service in my iPad is stopping me from putting that older version back on.

Speaking from the experience of having tried to post the Evernote .IPA file, the link won't actually work for anyone else - that file is embedded with your iTunes account details that links you to your account and to your iDevice(s). 

 

Good intentions, for sure, but unfortunately won't work for anyone but you :)

 

And for it to work for you, you need to DELETE the app from your iPad, AND delete it from the Apps tab in iTunes as well.  Then re-sync.

 

THEN - drag the .IPA file to iTunes onto the Apps tab (with the iPad plugged in - otherwise the Apps tab won't show) and then find Penultimate in the apps list on that page and make sure it is set to "Install".

 

Then re-sync one last time - should all be back!

 

Hope that helps

Thanks - I was trying to use the iPhone Configuration utility at work but will give this a go tonight at home (where it normally plugs in.

 

Thanks!

I presume it would work, although I haven't tried it.  But then that leaves the problem that you can't sync ANY of the PU notes or notebooks - even the ones that you DO want to sync.

 

No, what we need is the ability to switch off automatic syncing of everything, and the ability to stay connected to the Evernote account then just sync a single note, a few notes, or a complete notebook, as and when required.

 

It shouldn't need to be all or nothing, as it seems to be now.

That feature is missing as well. Once you're in ...you're in.

I'm wondering if MergeEver can help with the "single page as a separate note" thing.

Not sure anyone from Evernote is reading these, but wanted to make one more case based on actual usage of the Penultimate product. To relate to the physical world, Penultimate is a pad of paper and Evernote is a filing cabinet. In version 3.x, I could take a single page note or multiple page note in a meeting and send it to Evernote, where I could then put it in the proper notebook (meetings, notes, etc.). Often times I would take a weeks worth of notes in Penultimate, then at the end of the week, send various scraps of note pages from Penultimate to different notebooks.

 

The problem with syncing a whole notebook into Evernote is in a way, I am syncing a notebook into a notebook. Evernote shouldn't be a place I store a full notebook (a synced notebook from Penultimate 4.x) in a single note, it should be a place where I can place various notes from a notebook.

 

The old send to where I could select the pages that go in a single note for Evernote fits this workflow. Can you at least change Penultimate to remove the mandatory sync and then allow for the send to Evernote? In the Open In Evernote option in Penultimate v4.0 - it actually opens Evernote. The version 3.x way of silently in the background sending a note to Evernote was great.

 

Please help!

Yup - indeed... I'm still waiting for Penultimate to do that.  Gbarry has suggested that v4 that has been released, being the first iteration of v4, may well be tweaked to change a few things, without him being specific.  But I don't know how long it takes to "tweak" an app to do what the previous version already did?  I'm still waiting for an update, and for feedback on here that the update fixes ALL the sync problems.

 

- Optional "Sync everything automatically" for those who want that

 

- Selective "Sync page(s)"

 

- Selective "Sync Penultimate notebook"

 

And of course those last two should give us the option as to WHERE in Evernote the sync goes to.  i.e. the ability to choose the target notebook in Evernote, or create a new one.

 

That would be pretty close to perfect...

 

Until then, I'm continuing to use Notability...

Thanks for the tips - I went back and tried Notability and Noteshelf - Noteshelf has the old functionality of Penultimate and the ability to select certain pages to send directly to Evernote. Would still prefer a Penultimate fix though....

All Evernote users have been requested to change their passwords. Once you do, is there the option to not to update the pass in Penultimate and get this issue resolved? Will try it tonight!!

I am trying to just open my penultimate icon on my ipad3 when a pop up reset your password prompt comes up and will not let me reset it. Any ideas? As with everyone else, this is where all my files are.
