(Archived) 3 hotkey bugs

[questioner 0]

Hi

I am having issues with custom hotkeys.

1) Custom hotkey for screen capture reverts itself back to "printscr" button. I like to use win+print screen. When I set it it works fine but restarting EN reverts itself back to normal prntscrn.

2) Win+Shift+A is not working as custom global hotkey and this is the one I like to use.

3) I was actually using win+A for global clipper. But couple times milisecs after invoking win+A forced my computer to a restart. It is nto a crash, it forced windows for a restart and closed all the applications

I am under win xp64 and using the latest EN to this date.

While Evernote isn't supported on 64-bit Windows XP, it should work ok. You may want to try uninstalling Evernote completely and reinstall it.

In particular, nothing that our clipper does should cause a reboot.

I did not say it is not working under 64bit. It works fine.

How about the print screen issue?

thanks

It seems like you are saying that this feature is not working on your computer, and your computer is running 64-bit xp?

This may be the source of the problem, but you could try uninstalling and reinstalling.

engberg,

What I am wondering is that if these are confirmed bugs or confirmed non-bugs. I am having hardtime figuring out through your replies. When you said "it should work", it does not really refer any particular issue I have posted. Are you saying that you have looked at all those 3 issues and you are not getting any of the buggy effects I am having here?

The thing is if EN is having issues with 64bit registry then it should not save or remember any setting at all. I can finely set win+c as clipboard copy and EN remembers it at all times. But it does not remember win+printscreen. I need to set it everytime I restart EN.

There may be a UI bug in the Win32 client that renders the current hotkey wrong in this case. The setting does seem to persist correctly on my 32-bit machine.

I'm sorry because I have the same problem with custom hot key.

Like "questioner", I have to change the custom hot key to Win + PrintScr every time I start Evernote. To me, it's so annoying, because I have to use the PrintScr key much for my job.

I am using Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit version. Tried to re-install Evernote for few times but nothing changed!

BTW, I have the same idea with poster in this topic

http://forum.evernote.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=37&t=7324

I use Firefox add-on WebClipper. When my Windows starts, I start Firefox3 firstly, surf the web, find something interesting, select them and click EN button, but the EN starts with the message: "Evernote isn't ready to receive clips. Make sure database is open and try again". So I must click EN button again to add web notes to EN. I think it's quite annoying, too.

Hope that these issues will be fixed soon.

Thank you!

i thought i had the same custom hotkey problem. but then i checked mine again and i realized that after i changed my clipper option from printsrc to reg+Win, hit ok. option window closed. but when i reopen the option window right away again, it's restore back to check the printsrc option. however, the setting seems to be working. i can use reg+win to clip. and printsrc not clipping with EN, although the settings showed so.

reinstalling doesn't solve this bug.

my system: Vista ultimate 32bit. i'm also using Gadwin PrintScreen 4.3 and set printsrc key to use Gadwin to capture screen.
