stephenscott 1 Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 Love Evernote but I do wish it would not log me out so often, or give me an option to stay logged in.Yes I get the security aspect, but when it logs you out so often or does not give you the choice of a checkbox to remain logged in, it forces people to make less secure passwords so defeats the point. Why cant we have a permanant 'remain logged in' checkbox on the web version and clipper!? Link to comment
logandb 227 Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 Are you using any sort of cookie control that might restrict cross-session data being set? Perhaps your browser is set to delete cookies upon exit? Link to comment
Nils Geylen 2 Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 Just a shout that I've experienced this since forever (both Chrome and FF on Linux) but cookie settings seem to make no difference (although you should always check to rule it out).Now, I just don't bother anymore and am back to blocking trackers and third parties: the same, apparently random mechanisms seem to apply.That said: a lot of "Remember me" settings all over the web fail miserably; no idea why -- probably an issue with the cookie itself, not the settings.I would love a more aggressive sign-in method for those of us who're safe and secure on our home machines. Google never logs me out you know. Update: just noticed all the other various topics about sign ins. Responded to one there too but it seems all over. Link to comment

infors 0 Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 I checked my release recently and it's 5.9.15 but I'm still having problems with the web clipper on Chrome constantly logging out. I have it installed on two computers and Chrome is set to sync everything between them (the standard Chrome sync settings). Could this be causing it to constantly log out? As it is I don't find it particularly usable Link to comment
C6REW 416 Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 I started noticing this when I installed iobit and Advanced System Care, which makes everything a bit more secure. I now have to re load web pages when I boot the computer up and have to log back on to clipper and other programmes. Just got used to it really and accept it is part of the security I now work with.

navarroj 1 Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 Just to say “me too”. I’m using the 5.9.15 chrome web clipper, and I’m getting increasingly frustrated at the fact that it keeps logging me out every week or so. Link to comment

jbignert 473 Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 We are looking into this but so far are not able to reproduce it. If you are affected by this issue and can send me some additional info in a PM or post it here that would be helpful. We'd want to know:- What other extensions you have installed if any.- When this happens, on every attempt to clip? Or every X days (roughly)- If you have any settings that clears the cache or cookies on a regular basis. - If you have noticed any special action you take as a user that seems to trigger this behavior.

All the Kings Men 0 Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 One of the things that makes this more anoying than normal, is I use lastpass, so the password is not memorize-able. So when I go to get the password, the login screen disappears, and I have to enter everything.Also note... I don't have an option to select to say "Keep me logged in" or Remember me, just a question to show me results in my google searches.Your questions answered below.We are looking into this but so far are not able to reproduce it.

jbignert 473 Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 One clarification - the 'Remember me' checkbox is removed since by default we will keep you logged in until you sign out manually. We are investigating why users get signed out automatically, it is not by design so there is some kind of bug. Link to comment
Ross Goodman 0 Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Thanks for investigating this. The annoying thing is that I can be logged into Evernote in Chrome (which remembers my username and password) but the WebClipper thinks I'm logged out (and doesn't remember my username and password). Forgot to say - I'm using Chrome Browser on ChromeOS (stable). Link to comment
jbignert 473 Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Hi all,If you are experiencing being inadvertently logged out frequently can you please try one thing for me and see if it makes a difference. Disable the 'Smart filing' feature on the Web Clipper options page and let me know if that changes anything on the logout issue. or If you know you have experienced the logout issue and know you have had 'Smart filing' disabled all along, please send me a wink.

nothing 0 Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Me too. I was hoping to learn the cause was something I was doing wrong.

jbignert 473 Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Hi all, I just wanted to follow up on this topic as we have desperately been looking for the root cause for this evasive issue.We found and fixed one confirmed bug that we released in version 5.9.18 build ID: 61ba7fb on 6/22. - If you have been affected by the automatic sign out issue and it is no longer happening please give me a shoutout here.- If you are still having this problem and are using the latest version 5.9.18, please yell at me here.

navarroj 1 Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Hi! Thanks a lot for investigating this. I'm happy to report that since my latest message (almost a month ago!) I haven't been logged out from the web clipper any more. I'm currently running version 5.9.18. Link to comment
Shotwell 0 Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Issue still exists using a web clipping applet from my bookmarks toolbar in Safari on the iPad. Agree, it is annoying to have to log in every week. I use "Pocket" (formerly ReadItLater) and also sometimes use an applet to push content to my Kindle device and neither of those services require logging in after the initial login, even weeks/months later. Evernote is the only web app that doesn't seem to have a remember me function... At least, it won't remember you for more than a week.It's like having an aging relative who can't remember you when you come for your weekly visit. "Who are you again?" "I'm your grandson, grandma. I'm Barb's son." "Oh, of course."It just becomes annoying, and is an eye-roller when it happens. But it elicits the same reaction from me every time. Oh yeah, I have to tell Evernote who I am again. Which *does* actually reduce security, from one perspective, because it encourages you to use easy-to-remember passwords that you may use on other web services, just to be able to pull them more quickly from memory. Plus it has the side effect of forcing me to make one more entry before trying to do a quick task that should be seamless... Making the experience far from seamless. Yet it only happens about once a week, so I get used to the seamless work flow... Until I'm interrupted in my flow by the weekly password request yet again.Not to mention I just used 5 minutes of my time to log in and post a comment on this topic, which would have been unnecessary if your web app worked like others out there and remembered who I was on this device.Whew. Love the app. This, however, is the one thing I don't love about it. Link to comment
robinhoo 0 Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 Having the same issue with Firefox 23.0 and the web clipper on Evernote 5.2.1 for Mac. Logs me out just about every time I try to use it, even though I always click the "Remember me" option. Definitely the most frustrating thing about an otherwise great service. I know I'd use Evernote more if I didn't have to stop whatever I was doing in order to log in nearly every time I clip something to save. Link to comment

Vinay - http://process.st 0 Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 I am having the same issue with Google Chrome and clipper signing me out. Using new version of clipper. Also, another annoying bug is that once im signed out and i try to sign back it, it keeps pushing me to the user guide page in a new tab, and i have to open 2 new tabs and click the thing like 3 times before I can actually sign in again. Makes the 'instant clipping experience' not so instant... faster for me to copy/paste into evernote desktop. Link to comment
jbignert 473 Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Can you verify that you allow cookies from Evernote? By your description it sounds like you have something that deletes our cookies. Link to comment
Gul 0 Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 I start hating Evernote because of this bug / feature or whatever. The web clipper only works if I don't have to login again ever. No, I don't want to re-login after x days, weeks, whatsover. No, I don't want to re-login after a new browser update, No, especially I don't want to re-login after an extension update. And because my ultra-secure 25 digit password is not auto-filled from Lastpass. And guess what? I don't remember my evernote password, that's Lastpass' job. The clipper becomes useless if I can't stay logged in forever. It's not seamless and it's not fun. Using Both Firefox and Chrome on Linux. I neither block cookies or other other stuff from evernote.

jbignert 473 Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 @GulSorry for the issues you are having. It would be helpful to know if this is also happening for your account if you are trying the Web Clipper on a Mac or Windows machine. If this is Linux specific we can probably resolve this faster so if you have opportunity to test on Mac or Win and post back the result that would be great. Link to comment
Mike Korner 10 Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 This problem still exists for me. Sometimes it happens daily but most times it's more like weekly. I have not changed my cookie settings. This started happening for me about 3 months ago. At present, Clearly is pretty annoying when I have to stop and login all the time. But you know that Hints: - I'm using Windows 7 with Chrome Version 31.0.1650.63 m - Clearly's "Options" indicates that I'm "permanently" signed in. - Here are my Chrome privacy settings http://screencast.com/t/dsxrIsqb Link to comment
jbignert 473 Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Thx Mike, we don't really know what's going on here. We cannot reproduce the problem in any of the extensions at this point.- Exactly when do you notice that you have been signed out? Is it when you start the browser for the day, after a clip, after doing something in Clearly or WC?- If you can find you what shard you are on then we can look at the server logs, here's how to:https://www.evernote.com/shard/s13/sh/ba313faf-c54d-4f3c-bea6-b9c62d4b1286/5ffad1e4dc14cf5a9d3f205711eecdfe Link to comment
Mike Korner 10 Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Sorry for not being clearer Browncoat, Here are the steps ... 1) Find something I want to clip with Clearly2) Click the Clearly icon. Wail patiently while it does its reformatting. 3) When reformatting is done, click the Elephant to do the clip. I get prompted then. http://screencast.com/t/txp7PLA8 Link to comment
jbignert 473 Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 When you get prompted to sign in what happens after you enter your sign in credentials and submit the form? Do you get some kind of message or does the clip get executed? Link to comment
Mike Korner 10 Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 It works fine after I sign in (i.e. the clip works as expected) Link to comment
jbignert 473 Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 @Mike - seems like a cookie problem. - Please make sure you allow 3d party cookies from Evernote.- If you have a setting or extension that resets Chrome / clears cookies / clears local storage regularly this is can be expected to prompt logins. But your screendump of your settings indicates you have settings that should work for WC. Can you try clearing cookies or resetting Chrome and see if that helps. Link to comment
Mike Korner 10 Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 1) Thanks for trying to help 2) If I had a problem with a setting/extension it seems like it would happen each time I restart Chrome, right? Nevertheless, 3rd party cookies are allowed. Here's proof: http://screencast.com/t/Qemom3yQ I can/will clear cookies but am confused why that would help. I have no idea what you mean by reset Chrome.

Mike Korner 10 Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 OK, here's a bizarre clue that I found accidentally today. I found something to clip.Clicked on Clearly. It did its thing.Clicked on the elephant to Clip to Evernote.I got the login credentials page. I cussed. I accidentally clicked on the elephant again WITHOUT supplying credentials. The clip worked! Confused but true story. Clipping on another page works fine too.It's like the prompt for credentials part gets temporarily confused but when you click again the code knows you're really logged in properly so it does its thing and resets whatever it is that causes the prompt. Just sharing. No closer to being able to make it happen on demand though. Link to comment

Matt Berger 0 Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 Web Clipper requires me to log in again every time I close and re-open Safari. I have installed and re-installed the extension, trying both the version from the Safari extensions page and also the one from Evernote with no success. Further, the text now is garbled in a lot of places (for example pages from the Financial Times routinely are garbled) and scrolling through the notebooks when using the clipper is jerky and pretty much unusable. The first and second problems appear to have been going on for a long time for a lot of people and Evernote really needs to fix these bugs. This is especially true given the recent price hike.

enotetool 1 Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Don't know if it was a recent Firefox update (to 50.0.2) or something else not obvious, but this has been happening to me too for a short while. Rather annoying having to log back in after exiting the browser and rentering it (immediately or hours later). Also noticed that an Evernote web quick clipper page usually (but not always!?) pops up (or tries to - sometimes a blank page appears, which I suspect is the EN one, since it sometimes is) when going back in to the browser. Thing is, I've been using the same set of addons for some time, without issue. Now, I can, and probably will have to end up, reinstalling FF and the addons one by one to test if one of them is the cause (if one of these is the culprit), if/when I have time to do problem determination / testing. Would love to give the full list of addons for the Evernote team to debug it, but seeing that it has been an off and on problem for a few years, seems that either some piece gets missed in testing, or that squeezing one end of the balloon makes the other end grow..

mj_cowley 0 Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Hi Evernote team, I'm using a brand new MacBook Pro and the first thing I installed was Evernote. I find I'm frequently (i.e. every time I open Safari) asked to log back into the web clipper to use it. Being a new machine, I'm running latest version of everything (OSX, Evernote and Safari) and have no other applications or extensions installed. This suggests an issue with the Safari version of web clipper and not a conflict or other user-related problem. I hope it can be addressed soon. Link to comment

Limegreen 8 Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 I am now a days asked to log in to the safari Web Clipper everyday. Often several times a day. In the past it has always periodically asked me to log in. guess because safari doesn't save cookies forever (deletes monthly?) but to log several times a day is ridiculous. On the plus side it seems that since the Clippers update it saves my preferences after I've logged in. So it doesn't try to 'smart file' and I don't have to reconfigure it every time. I'm not sure if the increase in being logged out has to do with new Web Clipper or that I've begun using the 'Freedom' app which blocks web access. Link to comment

kristinj 0 Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 I'm having the same issue as mj_cowley and find it super-frustrating I have been using Evernote Web Clipper (I'm a premium member, if that matters) on my 2012 MacBook Air with macOS Sierra, the latest update of Evernote, Safari, and Chrome. With that setup I was only asked to Login to Web Clipper if I restarted my computer. Last week I got a new MacBook Pro and am running macOS Sierra, Evernote Version 6.10 (454267 Direct), Safari Version 10.0.2 (12602.3.12.0.1), Chrome Version 55.0.2883.95 (64-bit). Now when I am using either Safari or Chrome, I am asked repeatedly to login to Web Clipper, countless times each day -- and I've not logged out, my computer has not shut down, and the browser had remained in active use. This is very frustrating and time consuming. I don't understand why Web Clipper worked seamlessly on my MacBook Air and requires repeated login on my MacBook Pro. Help, please Link to comment

philosopherdog 12 Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 I'm having this issue on multiple machines 3 different browsers. I have 2 factor enabled. So this makes EN web clipping completely unusable. why is this taking so long to fix. It's happening on 2 MBPs one brand new in Chrome, Safari. I haven't really tested it in FF yet. I'm signing in to EN not the google login. I think I his problem started around the time google login was introduced. Link to comment
CVJ 61 Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Seems like the clipper only gives me 24 hours before I have to sign in again Link to comment

philosopherdog 12 Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Mine seems to log out right away. Maybe an hour. I started using google to sign in at least it doesn't ask me to 2 factor authenticate each time! Sure doesn't give me much confidence in this product. Currently this app is nearly useless. EN should refund our fee for as long as this bug remains unresolved. This has been happening for at least the past month now. I'm losing patience with this service. Link to comment
tanzido 0 Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 II just purchased a new MacBook Pro and I am having this issue on the new computer but never had it on the previous MacBook Pro. I went into System Preferences/Security & Privacy/Privace and added Evernote to the list of apps that could control the computer. I then went into Safari and Chrome and signed into the Evernote Webclipper. I closed both browsers and did a restart on the computer. I am signed into clipper on both browsers. Will see if it holds!

kristinj 0 Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Tanzido, this is exactly what is happening for me, it worked fine on my old Mac two weeks ago, then I got a new MacBook Pro (same OS, same Evernote web clipper) and now I have to sign in constantly. Please let us know if your fix holds. I have been emailing + tweeting with Evernote Support and they said that Evernote Webclipper 6.10.3 is suppose to fix this, but it didn't work for me, problem persists. Link to comment
tanzido 0 Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 kristinj--sorry to report that the fix did not hold. Two hours later (after closing and opening Safari numerous times) it is requiring login again. The fact that is is same OS and Safari version is very vexing. Should be some logical reason why!!

dmncsu 0 Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Not a new Mac (late 2015 iMac), but a new problem as of a few weeks ago. Very annoying, and strikes several times in the same day. As with others, this is a very big problem to my workflow. Not sure what happened, although it might have started about the same time as the macOS Sierra 10.12.2 update, which diddled somewhat with Safari Extensions. Any help from EN would be greatly appreciated. Link to comment
osiris27 1 Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Hi there have the same problem as other users - everytime I open the browser I am asked to log back into the web clipper to use it. Use newest Chrome and Windows 10 Pro. Please fix. Worked fine for many years but since some days the login problem arrived. this is very annoying. Link to comment
