wussery 4 Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 (edited) I'm using Evernote on Windows 10 version 6.25.1.9091 (309091) Public (CE Build ce-62.6.10954) When I insert a url from one of my YouTube videos directly into Evernote and hit the return key I am expecting that I will see an preview image of my video that can then be clicked on to launch the video. I don't get this option. The URL continues to show as a hyperlink Here's a YouTube video that I was trying to follow. Is this a Mac feature only?

You will need to upgrade for this feature. You can run both versions in parallel but just be carefiul to make sure data syncs to the server between using teh different versions. Link to comment
Evernote Expert agsteele 3,059 Posted April 25, 2022 Evernote Expert Share Posted April 25, 2022 As @MikeP says. Also be careful that you disable conflicting settings between both applications. Keyboard shortcuts are the first place to start. I turned off all shortcuts in Legacy since I use v10 by default. Link to comment

Thanks for the information. I'm not aware of such a post. The basic thing to remember is that whichever version you are working on you need to make sure that it syncs before using the other version. That should happen automatically in the background with V10. For the legacy version it is essential that you manually sync both before making changes and before going back to V10. I think it is prudent to also check the last note that you have been working on in the other version as soon as you change versions. It is also worth remembering that the web version should always have the version on the server so a note in the web version can bee seen as the "master" version. Think of the process like this Legacy <---------> Web (server version of note) <---------> V10 Link to comment

Thanks for the information. Using both version in parallel is possible, but should be done with caution. The reason is the different syncing process. Legacy will be syncing later than v10, because it changes its local database first, and only then syncs. This creates a delay, that can interfere with ongoing editing in v10. I think it is more relaxed to use v10 for all day to day processes, and open legacy only when necessary. For me there are 3 operations left where legacy does it better than v10: Moving a bunch of notes to a different notebook (multi selection) is much faster on legacy. Interestingly tagging a selection of notes is pretty fast - so maybe just a question of optimization. Printing a note - v10 is picking up, but still the print options in legacy are better Tag housekeeping - Legacy has a better overview over existing tags, and allows to join or erase them in a natural workflow. Apart from these issues, I rarely open the legacy client these days any more. From some other users I know they are missing more or different functions, like local notebooks, scripting ability or the Presentation mode. If your use cases depend on any of these, you need to take a long term decision, because the last mentioned features will not return. 1 Link to comment
Level 5 PinkElephant 8,754 Posted July 13, 2022 Level 5 Share Posted July 13, 2022 ??? I doubt @Mike P is facing an error he can’t resolve himself … What is your purpose of posting in this thread, that was silent for months now ? Link to comment

There is no error. I was just pointing out that the original poster was looking in the legacy version for a feature which is only available in V10. Link to comment
Level 5 Dave-in-Decatur 4,004 Posted July 14, 2022 Level 5 Share Posted July 14, 2022 This sounds like a typical forum-phishing post to me--a new member with only this one post, offering a generic request or comment ("That was helpful!") intended to elicit a puzzled response--and maybe then a chat and some thievery? @annijonn, if you're here for a good purpose, my apologies, but please respond in the thread. 1 Link to comment
