Level 5 PinkElephant 8,241 Posted April 26, 2023 Level 5 Share Posted April 26, 2023 @ahmed mohamed Just for clarification: I assume you write in Arabic, and the first part of the note is as it is and OK. The part you call encrypted is below, where the figures show. Correct ? Link to comment

There are also complete notes that have become like this, whether the title or the content Link to comment
Level 5 PinkElephant 8,241 Posted April 26, 2023 Level 5 Share Posted April 26, 2023 Just an assumption: Could it be that the weird "ب" code is in fact just the Unicode denominator of the letter ? I don't know Arabic or how it is stored in Unicode denomination - but in Latin characters, each letter is represented by a number code as well. Maybe you can get a Unicode translation table from numbers to letters somewhere, and try to check a few of them, if it makes sense. If this hypothesis shows to be correct, it should be possible to convert it back from the number codes to letters. 1 Link to comment

I assumed that too .. but I do not know how it is stored and I searched more for sites or tools that can transform this matter, but I have not come to anything yet .. I am still searching more and more and I also follow up with support until I am told something .. Thank you very much I would like to ask you also, does Evernote keep a copy of my notes in their archives .. If so, and these notes are lost, is there a copy stored with them in some way or something additional like that that I can request from them Link to comment
Level 5 PinkElephant 8,241 Posted April 26, 2023 Level 5 Share Posted April 26, 2023 On which type of Plan are you ? Link to comment
ahmed mohamed 4 Posted April 26, 2023 Author Share Posted April 26, 2023 I used to use the free plan, but since this problem occurred, I have been using the premium plan in order to get support Link to comment
Level 5 PinkElephant 8,241 Posted April 26, 2023 Level 5 Share Posted April 26, 2023 OK, there is a feature called Note History. You can access it through a desktop client, Windows or Mac. It stores older versions of any note. It is running on Free accounts as well, just the access is a subscribers feature. You can try to recover one of the notes. You can both set it back, or create a fresh copy of it, as a new note. You find it in the 3 dots menu top right, Note History. This is how it looks: 1 Link to comment
ahmed mohamed 4 Posted April 26, 2023 Author Share Posted April 26, 2023 Well @PinkElephant .. I will try this and come back again to tell you the details .. Thank you very much for your help and time 1 Link to comment
SwordFaisal 3 Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 I'm getting same issues after updating the app recently. kindly advise in this matter Link to comment
Nick L. 681 Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 Hi @ahmed mohamed, Thanks for reporting this. We are currently aware of a bug that can cause this if you had the note in Scratchpad and converted it into a note, or if you used Android Evernote widget to create the note. Do you recall how this note was created? From the screenshot seems like it was a webclip, however I'd like to confirm. 1 Link to comment
ahmed mohamed 4 Posted April 28, 2023 Author Share Posted April 28, 2023 Hello, @SwordFaisal..First, your account must be premium in order to be able to access it..and I think this is a problem in their latest update, and I think they are aware of it now.. and they are trying to work on solving this problem. You can contact support and create a ticket with them.. until this problem is resolved.. you can access your notes normally .. from the old web version, not the new one .. and if any of your notes were lost, you can retrieve them through the notes history as my friend told me .. @PinkElephant.. Thank you pink .. I have reached my missing notes through the notes history .. but this problem still exists. I hope they work on a solution 1 1 Link to comment
ahmed mohamed 4 Posted April 28, 2023 Author Share Posted April 28, 2023 Hello @Nick L. .. Thank you very much for your interest in this matter .. I would like to inform you that I was using the free version of Evernote and all my notes were created normally from the desktop version and Android. More than 10 days.. and until now, the problem still exists.. I hope that this matter will be fixed, and everything that works will return to normal Link to comment
Evernote Expert agsteele 2,964 Posted April 28, 2023 Evernote Expert Share Posted April 28, 2023 I believe that the issue was raised with the support devs via the Evernote Expert team. It will take some time to resolve. Even if it is simple, it will require a release of a new application. Hoping that isn't too long for you but it will not be immediate 1 Link to comment
Level 5 PinkElephant 8,241 Posted April 28, 2023 Level 5 Share Posted April 28, 2023 Not an „Expert“, but anyhow, I raised it 😉 1 1 Link to comment
