eshawe 0 Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 Just had to replace legacy with latest version. The pdf files I included either within the messages or attachment aren't showing up but I do have to save everyone. Even more when they are saved and I try to reattach most give just an error message (something went wrong. Is thjat bug or a feature? I'm using Evernote since 2012 and habe about 56.000 (yes ... fifty six thousand messages/articles from which there are thousands containing pdf files What's going on and how can I solve the problem?

Level 5 PinkElephant 8,188 Posted February 29 Level 5 Share Posted February 29 The question is how you have installed v10 - and how (if at all) legacy was removed. The way to check is to open the web client, and check the status there. This is a view directly on the server data. Assuming you installed v10, and just logged in. Then the initial download will be only the notes plus some metadata. The attachments are not loaded in this initial step. When you open a note, 2 things need to happen: Download the attachments from the server, and convert the data structure of the note into a v10 format. You need to keep the app running (can be in the background) to allow it to download all content. This will take several days, given your volume of notes. Unfortunately there is no „download done“ indicator, like the one on mobile. I watch the data traffic in the Activity monitor / Task manager. When the flow of data to EN finally stops for some time, it is likely the download is over. 1 Link to comment
eshawe 0 Posted February 29 Author Share Posted February 29 Maybe you're right, some pdf files are now in preview mode, but there are some strange things happening. Well, we'll see. I've stored the image file on a second HDD as it was too large (170 GByte) for my C, but the second HDD is a simple old mechanic 2.5 inch 5400 one. I'll replace it with an SSD, maybe there's a speed problem causing those strange things. I'll come back to the topic. Link to comment
Level 5 PinkElephant 8,188 Posted February 29 Level 5 Share Posted February 29 Why an image file ? No clue 🤔 Link to comment
eshawe 0 Posted February 29 Author Share Posted February 29 Sorry, wasn't that clear. Evernote stores the notes essentially in one sole file: *\Evernote\Databases\<username>.exb That's the one I was talking about. For the moment it's at 138 GByte. The old one from legacy version was somewhat over 170 GByte. The other Folders in *\Evernote have total of 16 GByte where the resource-cache is the largest one with j14.2 GByte. So the <username>.exb ist the one that - as an all-life programmer - I would call image file because it's essentially an image of my notes.;-) Link to comment
Level 5 PinkElephant 8,188 Posted February 29 Level 5 Share Posted February 29 AFAIK the .exb file is from legacy. The resource-cache is from v10. An image of the exb will do you no good, because I doubt it will open with v10. But you can try. Link to comment

eshawe 0 Posted February 29 Author Share Posted February 29 So I guess that v10 doesn't use it at all? Can I just leave it or do I have to remove it? Link to comment

Correct. I’m surprised it wasn’t deleted when you installed v10, but once v10 is up and running you can delete the .exb file. If you are running Evernote on an HDD you will find that it crawls. It really needs to be on an SSD. Link to comment
eshawe 0 Posted March 1 Author Share Posted March 1 The installer probably used the default values. I checked again yesterday and found that the data folder had been created on C:\. I believe to remember being asked about this during installation, but that obviously didn't work for some reason. Just like using the old parameters of the legacy version. I.E. folders to import.
