(Archived) Syncing on startup?

[Norman 0]

Evernote for Windows can be set to automatically synchronise (15, 30mins etc), or to synchronise on exit. But there doesn't seem to be a way to synchronise on startup. This presents a problem when a note is created or updated on a different device (I use my iPad more often than the desktop) - when the Windows Evernote is started, I have to perform a manual sync otherwise I end up with duplicate notes, etc.

Any advice?

I agree this should be fixed. If auto syncing is enabled, Evernote should sync on loading by default.

For now you just have to sync manually or set autosync to a low enough interval that it's not an issue.

Thanks ric for your reply - I was beginning to think nobody bothered with this forum - and for confirming that I am not the only one who has noticed this omission in an otherwise excellent program!

A forum search on "evernote windows sync startup" turned up at least a couple of other threads on this topic that already existed. And yes, there is quite a bit of traffic on the forum, but it's mostly a user forum, rather than an official Evernote support forum. And sometimes the other users don't have answers.

I would also like to see a feature for syncing Evernote upon application start-up.  This is a key feature to avoid being frustrated by conflicting changes after making edits and forgetting to hit the sync button manually.
