(Archived) Changing Password

[emellaich 0]

How do I change the password on the evernote client for synching?

I changed the pw on the web, and now the client is using the old pw.

I can't find the setting/menu to change it.

Try using the "switch..." from the account menu.

I'm also having this problem now. There is no 'Switch' in the Account menu.

The new version of the Windows beta changes this a little. If your saved desktop password is different than the service, it should automatically pop up a dialog box for you to enter the right password.

You can also use "File >> Close" to explicitly close an account, and then you can enter a different name & password.

I don't want to complain, but why make changing the password difficult? Personally, I want the choice to change the password from the desktop version, than to only be able to change it online.

I hope that the developers change this in the next update.

Ok, that worked. Although it was Account->Close, rather than File->Close. Nevertheless, thank you.

Thanks, this helped. However there should be at least a help topic on this.

This also worked for me. I also agree that a help topic or tool tip would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
