(Archived) Can't see any of my notes

[fazworld 0]

It looks like I should have (79) notes, but I only see 2. I think Evernote is not showing me notes created before 2011. They are all there when I log into Evernote on the web, but not in the client. Thanks in advance for the help!

Does anyone know if I need to change a setting or do something else to be able to see ALL my notes in the Mac client?

It sounds like there may be a problem with the database files on your computer. To rebuild them from scratch:

Please try moving your Evernote database directory so that Evernote will regenerate a new local database by copying your notes back down from the service. To do this:

1. Quit Evernote from the elephant icon in the menu bar.

2. In the finder, open the "Library" folder in your home directory. (This is in the directory with your name, NOT at the top level of your hard drive.)

3. Navigate to "Application Support"

4. Move the "Evernote" folder from that location to a different place (like the desktop)

5. Start Evernote, provide your username and password again if needed

This will synchronize all of your notes from the service and create a new local database.

*If you do have any Local Only notebooks, right-click the notebook name in the left-hand notebook pane and select "Export", then export the notebook to .enex format, exporting tags if desired. If you have some unsynchronized notes, you can go to the Note List view, sort by the "Sync" column, and export any notes that have a * in that column to .enex format before following the above instructions. Once those instructions are finished, you can then import the .enex files you created to restore these exported notes.

Perfect! That worked, thanks!
