TD-evernote 0 Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 I need to move my evernote files to a new mac. I have three notebooks that are stored locally. Anyone know where they might be in the filesystem. I've looked in the normal places (Library/Application Support/) but haven't seen anything that I recognize yet. Thanks. Link to comment

I've looked in the normal places (Library/Application Support/) but haven't seen anything that I recognize yet. Local notebooks are stored in the database along side sync'd notebooks Since Local Notebooks are not sync'd and backed up by Evernote, you need to have your own backups in place Most users have a separate export for each notebook (the notebook is not identified in the .enex file) You will use these .enex files to import the data to your new Mac There's documentation on the Export feaure at https://help.evernote.com/hc/en-us/articles/209005557-How-to-back-up-export-and-restore-import-notes-and-notebooks Link to comment
TD-evernote 0 Posted January 3, 2018 Author Share Posted January 3, 2018 I couldn't find the files but I figured out how to Export the notebooks. Guess that works good enough. Link to comment
agarwal 0 Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 > Local notebooks are stored in the database along side sync'd notebooks Okay, but where is that? I don't want to import or export. I just want to know where the data is for other reasons. Thanks. Link to comment

mlondon 1 Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 I have a related issue. I'm about to upgrade to v7 (wish me luck) and wanted to make sure I'm safe incase of needing to wipe Evernote and re-download my data from the server. I'm not sure if I have any Local Notebooks, nor do I see any method of finding which Notebooks are local. (For that matter I dont even see an option to create Local Notesbooks on Mac v6.13.3) How can I determine if I do have Local Notebooks? And how can I turn them into Synched Notebooks? Thank you.

You can't convert the notebook type. You move the notes to a sync'd notebook Link to comment
