idoc 413 Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 I seem to recall in the past that I was able to change the "created date" such that if I created dates in the future I could fool the sorting structure and have notes arranged in the order that I want. However, in v10 I don't see these options available. Am I missing something or do these features no longer exist? Link to comment
Evernote Expert agsteele 3,059 Posted September 13, 2022 Evernote Expert Share Posted September 13, 2022 Your not missing anything. This feature doesn't exist in v10. Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 12,055 Posted September 13, 2022 Level 5* Share Posted September 13, 2022 ...You can still use 'creative' dates as a title prepend and sort that way... Link to comment
Evernote Expert agsteele 3,059 Posted September 14, 2022 Evernote Expert Share Posted September 14, 2022 Now, I need to confess that I goofed! It is the updated date that cannot be changed. The created date can be changed. Three dot menu button / Note Info Sorry for confusion on my part. 2 Link to comment
idoc 413 Posted September 14, 2022 Author Share Posted September 14, 2022 Thanks agsteele. However, I do not think you can change the created date even if you go to the three dot menu/Note info. I tried it both on the desktop and on iphone and although I can see the created date I can not change it. Link to comment
Evernote Expert agsteele 3,059 Posted September 14, 2022 Evernote Expert Share Posted September 14, 2022 I checked in the web browser. I tap in the date and a date picker opens. Selected a new date & time and bingo. Wasn't able to check in the desktop app but will do later. Link to comment

Note information (on desktop) includes a clickable date field! (but it's a little fiddly to get to for bulk changes...) Link to comment
idoc 413 Posted September 14, 2022 Author Share Posted September 14, 2022 I agree that it works in the browser and on legacy but i can’t get it to work on iphone or windows desktop v10. I am using win7 so, if you got it to work on your windows desktop this may be an explanation. However, definitely does not work on iphone. I can see the created date but can’t change it. Can you actually manipulate the created date on your windows desktop version? Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 12,055 Posted September 14, 2022 Level 5* Share Posted September 14, 2022 Yup desktops do things that mobile apps can't. Still. Link to comment
Boot17 1,535 Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 I can change the note create date on Windows. (This is Evernote v10 on Windows 10.) 1 Link to comment
idoc 413 Posted September 14, 2022 Author Share Posted September 14, 2022 That's interesting. So one more downside to using win7 for v10. I can't do this on my system. It's not a big deal since I don't have to do it every day and I can always set it up on the browser version or on Legacy. Usually pinning of notes to the top is something fairly infrequent but can be very helpful if that note is for guidance for what comes underneath. Thanks for testing it out for me. Link to comment

No poblem in V10 Shift+Contol+I or use the three Dots top right and select Note Info you can amend the Created Date and Time. Link to comment
idoc 413 Posted September 16, 2022 Author Share Posted September 16, 2022 As far as i can tell this does not work on iphone. I can get to the created date but can not change it. Link to comment
Level 5 PinkElephant 8,773 Posted September 16, 2022 Level 5 Share Posted September 16, 2022 On mobile the only way to change the modified date is to actually change something in the note. Direct editing of the note information is not possible. Link to comment
