How to automate backup/export of all notebooks (about 20 of them) on regular schedule

[austinc2004 0]

I have about 20 notebooks on different topics and am looking for a more automated way to backup/export all notebooks regularly (eg every 2 weeks). Currently I only know to export one notebook at a time. I just recently used Evernote so I use the new non-legacy version if that matters. Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Austin.

No joy for the new versions as best I know re backup.

I use the Legacy product on a Mac   
My backups are automated with an applescript   
An alternative is third party Backupery

The Version 10 product has no automated solution at present

Thanks DTLow. I guess Legacy product on my Mac maybe the way to go. Wonder if any negative of Legacy product vs the new version and if they can co-exist? I just worry I may lose some data that stored locally if I uninstall the new version to replace with Legacy. I also never dealt with Apple Script wonder if you can share the script?

Here's a sample script

tell application "EvernoteLegacy"
     set allNotebooks to every notebook ------------------------------------------------------------- identify the notebooks

     repeat with currentNotebook in allNotebooks ------------------------------------------- process each notebook
          set notebookName to (the name of currentNotebook)
          set fileBackupenex to "/Users/DTLowDesktop/@Evernote/Evernote_Backup/Notebook-" & notebookName & ".enex"
          set fileBackupenex to POSIX path of fileBackupenex
          set theNotes to every note in notebook notebookName

          try
              with timeout of (60 * 60) seconds
                    export theNotes to fileBackupenex format ENEX with tags ------------ export the notebooks
               end timeout
          end try
     end repeat
end tell

Hi,

Any chance someone has a solution for Windows?

 

Thanks

Simply save the EN data folder using a regular Backup program. I use Acronis for the job and save to my NAS.

Export is to switch to another notes app, or wrap some notes or a notebook into a transport container - not for backing up.

 What is the path for the windows EN data folder in ver 10?

Other users found it here:

C:\Users[PC Name]\AppData\Local\Evernote\Evernote\Databases

Can’t check, I am on a Mac.
