cubex 0 Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 If the web clipper had to be rewritten for Safari 5.1, there are two (kind of) usability or information design issues:1. a minimum requirement for Safari version 5.1 needs to be clear before any download, let alone permitting it to be installed (and failing) on Safari < 5.12. there are several posts about it failing on Safari 5.0.6, but with the assertion that these users should upgrade, yet Safari 5.1 won't install on OS X 10.5.8, which many users still have, and - worse - the previous version of the web clipper that *did* work on older Safari is no longer available.I suggest:1. make it clear on the download link that Safari 5.1 is required, and prevent installation if attempted;2. make the previous version available for those with older versions of Safari.These two points are fairly common for other installs, so I'm a little disappointed that Evernote doesn't adopt the same practice - especially for what is such a popular and otherwise excellent service.Update: strangely, I just used the 'remember' link at the bottom left of this forum post to 'web clip' the page to evernote?? It's unformatted (no CSS) but has been added - is this the same functionality? Link to comment
