rovengineer 1 Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 Hi. I'm running Evernote version 6.7.5.5825 Windows 10 Home on a Dell laptop. The problem seems to only occur when I am working in the Notes section of a scanned business card. As I'm typing, and especially if I pause briefly, the cursor jumps back to the top-left corner of the Notes field. In this case that would be just before the word "Hi". I usually do this in the panel view mode (not a separate window), but I have tried opening the card in its own window and still have the same problem. I have not found a work around for this. I suppose I could type the note in another program, then cut & paste it into Evernote, but that seems silly. Link to comment
Level 5 Dave-in-Decatur 3,938 Posted November 7, 2017 Level 5 Share Posted November 7, 2017 That sounds like a version of this known issue: (See also here.) The solution is to go to Tools > Options > Note and uncheck "Set new note focus to title." Hope that will work for you. Link to comment
rovengineer 1 Posted November 7, 2017 Author Share Posted November 7, 2017 Thank you, Dave. I did see that thread in doing my research before posting. It has not helped. One thing that came out of that thread, is when this happened, the blue upload arrow appears in the top-right of the note. So, I suspect everytime it uploads my changes (even though I'm not finished), it resets the cursor. So I thought turning OFF the "Enable instant sync" in the "Sychronization" section of the Options might help. It did not, but maybe that will spur someone else to think of a better way...

Ex Employees Austin G 527 Posted November 8, 2017 Ex Employees Share Posted November 8, 2017 @rovengineer Thanks for the report. This separate issue is isolated to business card notes, and is scheduled to be fixed in the Evernote for Windows Desktop version 6.8 GA. Please let us know if the issue continues after installing the 6.8 GA. I'll update here once it's out. Thanks. Link to comment

rovengineer 1 Posted January 24, 2018 Author Share Posted January 24, 2018 I have upgraded to 6.8.7.6387 (306387) Public (CE Build ce-1.36.3494) Now I apparently cannot edit business cards, nor add notes at all. I suppose this fixed the problem, but not in a helpful way. :-( Please let me know if there is any way to edit the cards that is not obvious to me. Thank you Link to comment
