(Archived) How to sync web version and downloaded version

[nobodysfool180 0]

I've been adding notes to the downloaded version of Evernote. How do I sync it with the web version so that I can access my notes when I am not at my home computer (where the downloaded version) is?

Is it better to add notes via the web version or the downloaded version?

I've been adding notes to the downloaded version of Evernote. How do I sync it with the web version so that I can access my notes when I am not at my home computer (where the downloaded version) is?

What Evernote client did you download? Windows, Mac? iPad/iPhone/iThingie?

Regardless, syncing should happen automatically. One some clients, there's a way to force them to sync (e.g., the Windows client has a 'Sync' button), but you shouldn't need that.

Is it better to add notes via the web version or the downloaded version?

Either one, whichever suits your needs. Typically the desktop clients have a richer feature set than the web client; the mobile clients a bit less. The browser 'Clip to Evernote' tools are good ways to add notes as well: you can clip a whole page, a selection or just a link. You can also email notes to your Evernote account.

Try it out and find what works for you.
