McVitas 4 Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 Hello, this is weird. Today I started a new entry in my notebook on a phone. On a pc in web version I can see it. Later I typed a new sentence into it in the phone. But now I can't get the evernote web to display the updated content?! In android app there is this green up arrow by this entry in the notebook. Phone is connected via wifi, I swipe down and the arrow is spinning and top bar is scrolling sideways (what should this mean anyway?) but still even after refreshing browser window on a pc I see the old entry without the added text! If I go to meni in android app and choose synchronize it does not help either. Link to comment
McVitas 4 Posted November 14, 2016 Author Share Posted November 14, 2016 So I waited until now. Did something else. Tried to swipe down in the app and the spinning arrow didn't take more then 2 seconds (much quicker then before) and the green up arrow by the entry disappeared! Now I just clicked back and forth in the web evernote and I see the updated content... So I guess this was just a temporary outage of the sync service on evernote's servers. Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 8,592 Posted November 14, 2016 Level 5* Share Posted November 14, 2016 Hi. As you gathered, the green up arrow means 'needs syncing' and the screen activity indicated that things were pending. An immediate sync isn't guaranteed - all sorts of things can interrupt the connection, from local traffic to the server just being busy (there are another 200M users syncing out there somewhere). - I just scared myself and worked out on average that's 5 syncs every second throughout the year... The moral being: If at first you don't succeed... try again later. Link to comment
