"Local (unsynced) notes are no longer supported"? Ambiguous sentence


Recommended Posts

Just upgraded to EN10 from EN6 (Win) and read that warning with horrow "Local (unsynced) notes are no longer supported". However, luckily, it's not what I thought. My notes, including the ones done in the new version, are uploaded but they are still available locally (I mean, if I disconnect from the Internet). What does thatstatement mean, then?

Hi.  There used to be a feature (still is, in Legacy) where you could create a 'Local Notebook' - something that looked to your account exactly like a normal notebook,  but its contents were not synced to the server,  they were purely saved on the local (desktop) device.  Such local storage is no longer supported,  though I,  and numerous others,  did use it.

Be aware that there may be a problem to access the data offline. AFAIK you need to be logged in online to get access to your data when later going offline. Did not give it an extensive test until now, since I still run legacy on my MacBook.

you are right. when disconnected from internet and restart I can still see all my notes but most of them title only - not contenct - unless they had been opened once in EN10. However, reopening them with legacy EN6 I can read them all. Same with Android. (I have no Apple's PCs though)

looks like either they find a way to sinc properly and store the whole note locally if we wish or I'll need to go back to legacy EN

On my iOS devices I have my notebooks loaded with the „offline“ option.

There it does not play a role whether I am offline before opening the EN client - all offline data can be fully accessed (including attachments) even when I am in flight mode before opening the EN client. Probably the same is build into the Android client (can’t test it, don’t use Android).

mmh yes I still have that in the setting in my Android phone but seems not to work as it used to prior to the last update. Also I cannot find setting in the EN10 for my Win PCs - it will probably take some time but they could have provided a smoother upgrade for sure!

Possibly allow time for a full sync to process

thanks for the clue and - I am posting this just in case: one needs to give the newly installed EN10 time to sync all the notes. I had thousands andfive min wasn't enough, but after leaving my PC quiet with EN open it's working and now I can read all my notes even without network
