Export large folder?

[Paul_Alivisatos 0]

I have been backing up my Evernote folders to a Mac via export,  just in case.  I can export smaller folders, but one larger one, with 2000 notes, does not backup probably.  The export dialog starts but never completes.  Is there a way to do this?  Thank you for any suggestions.

I do weekly full export of my data, 12k notes.  No issue, it completes in 20 minutes.
I get in progress feedback 
                             

Does the Activity Log give any info on the problem?

Thanks for the reply.  I can export folders in general, but one notebook just never advances after displaying a "downloading contect" dialog box.  The blue bar never starts moving across.  All the notes seem to be accessible form the app, so I am not sure why this would be.  Thanks for any advice.  I would hate to lose all of these notes.

I've seen that before, I'm guessing the export can't continue until the content is downloaded.
In my case, I waited until the download completed.  The export then ran sucessfully.

I think this thread is relevant to my problem, which persists, despite waiting many hours:

 

Any further pointers would be appreciated, as I can export some notebooks just fine but not others, and just waiting longer is not working.  Thank you for the help.

Ok, the problem was indeed that the Mac app was not synced up fully, and it took quite a long tome for that to happen.  I do not know why it was not properly synced through normal use, nut problem solved for now.
