Evernote for Mac will not sync (appears empty), but works on phone and Web.


Recommended Posts

I bought a new Mac and am migrating away from the old mac. I logged out of Evernote for Mac app on the old computer and logged in with the new Mac. I updated my devices in Evernote, but my notebooks are all empty on the Evernote for Mac app. I can still see my notes on my iPhone and if I log into Evernote via the web. Please advise.

Thank You,

Chris

Have you deauthorized your old Mac using the web client, or just quit using it ?

If it is still in your devices list (on the web client), you are above the 2 device Limit with your new Mac. Withdraw authorization for the old Mac, and it should work. Maybe it takes a little before it trickles down after you pulled the plug on the old device.

@PinkElephant Thank you for your response. I don't know how to get in touch with Evernote, so I appreciate your response. 

I did deauthorize my old Mac to the point where only my iPhone was the only authorized device. Then, I downloaded a the latest Evernote app to my new iMac and logged in and authorized the new iMac. Still, no notes. Actually, there is one note relating to a recipe I had pulled up on my iPhone a few days ago, which is odd. Where's the other 1000+ notes. I let it sit overnight and checked just now and Evernote for Mac still does not sync all my notes.

I will say, I had to reset my password early in the iMac migration, because I wasn't able to log into my account. I wonder if there are two accounts out there now related to the same email address. Is there anyway I can find out why all notes show up on the Web and my iPhone, but not on the Evernote App? 

My biggest concern is if course that I don't want to loose all my nites. I'm happy to upgrade my account, but not if it's going to break or loose all my notes. 

Any more advice? Thank You.

Make sure you are logging in with the correct userid and password

>Still, no notes

Do all the notebooks show?

You can force a full sync by holding down the option and shift keys, then clicking on the sync icon
