Shared notebooks that I have "left" still show up in Notebooks list

[switters 9]

There are two notebooks that were shared with me that I don't want to appear in my Notebooks list. In the Notebooks pane, I clicked on the three dots next to the notebooks in question and chose "Leave notebook". But they are still appearing in the Notebooks pane. Now, when I click on the three dots, the "Leave notebook" option, and all other options except "Export notebook", are greyed out.

When I go to Evernote.com, the shared notebooks don't appear in the Notebooks list. 

How do I get rid of them in Evernote on the Mac?

Here's the crazy thing: I just asked the people who shared those notebooks with me to unshare them. They confirmed that they have deleted the notebooks in question, but they are still appearing in my Notebooks list. Argh!

I am also having this issue. 

I have a stack that I'm unable to delete, with notebooks that appear to have nothing in (whose original creator I believe has deleted them), but I can neither access them, nor delete them, and I can't delete the stack. 

The same thing is happening for me in the browser, as it is in the Mac app. 

Argh!

What's especially strange for me is that the shared notebooks only show up in certain instances of Evernote (on Evernote Desktop on my iMac, and on Evernote Mobile on my iPhone), but they don't show up on Evernote on the web or on Evernote Desktop on my Macbook Pro)! I've tried deleting and reinstalling the app on my iMac, but that didn't solve the problem.

I have the same issue. I left a space and all the notebooks still appear in my notebook list, and it gives me an error when I try to leave them again. There are many so it really clutters the list!

Is anyone from Evernote even monitoring this forum?

I have the same issue. The notebook just reappears in my desktop, but is gone when I access Evernote from the browser. So frustrating. I submitted a ticket.

Same issue here. Has anyone figured it out yet?

Have you tried logging out and back in ?

If this doesn’t work, try to uncheck „Keep data on leaving…“ in EN settings, logout and quit cmd-q the app after logout.

I have the solution : you need to delete the appdata folder of evernote. That(s force evernote to redownload your database, settings and such. 

Completely exit evernote

Type : Win + R

Type : %appdata%

Enter

Delete the evernote folder.

Launch evernote, reconnect and taaaddaaa.

Hmmmm - how do I type this on a Mac ???

Hint: On a Mac it is located here:

~/Library/Application Support/Evernote

And on Android?

Notes shared, but access deleted. App says cannot be accessed, but appear in 'Shared with Me' list. Just want to delete those with sharing removed from the list. If the app knows there's no access, or one note is selected, why can't it be removed by re-ordering or re-structuring the list? Seems like a long overdue feature request.

If you want to reset your local database: Uninstall the app, if asked confirm to dump all data, switch the device completely off, wait a little, on again.

Now reinstall. After login the app will download a fresh copy from the server.

No idea if this solves the problem with „orphaned“ shared notes.
