Trying to do an archive by duplicating the data in Apple notes. Numbers don't match for total quantity.

I exported each Folder separately.

Went to the Apple notes app and imported each.

My Evernote shows 3491

My Notes shows 2329

I can't spot what I am doing wrong.

The export writeup on the website says if I have created any folders then the default folder is now an All Folder.

I have tried to make sure I exported and imported each and every folder.

What am I missing? 

 

Thanks

I would try it again, this time doing it notebook by notebook, checking the individual number of notes after each pass.

Either it misses a third of the notes in every pass, or you can detect the point in the process where it really fails.

I have now re exported every single notebook, I took the time to create a spreadsheet with the count of each notebooks quantity.

I then created a new user account to test into for Apple notes and again, my quants do not MATCH!

Evernote says 3496, the spread sheet total Confirms then same number.

I import into Apple notes and end up with 2300ish...

How do I possibly export all my notes and back them up to Apple Notes.

You want to back up ? Or you want to export ? This are completely different use cases.

You need to check where the difference originates. So why not reimport the enex-files into EN and see if the count matches. If it does, you need to look at the Apple Notes import, else at the EN export.
