Manley 4 Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 I can't rename a stack in Evernote 5. I can right-click and select the rename option and type the new name, but that name doesn't stick. The stack reverts back to the generic title of Notebook Stack. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks Link to comment
Level 5* jefito 5,589 Posted July 19, 2013 Level 5* Share Posted July 19, 2013 Renaming a stack works for me. I've done it a couple of times, and it's persisted through at least a couple of syncs. Link to comment

When something weird like this happens, i.e., should work but doesn't, it's my default action plan. Takes forever, overnight, at least, but less of a headache this way. Link to comment
Manley 4 Posted July 20, 2013 Author Share Posted July 20, 2013 I found the problem...I just wasn't renaming the stack properly. In most renaming functions (such as in Windows Explorer) you can right-click, select re-name, enter the name and then click on the folder. The name is saved. However; I found that I needed to hit the enter key for the renaming to save. Link to comment

Windows Explorer works the same way, at least the bit about hitting Enter (that's how I do it, seeing as I am already typing to change the name). Glad you found the answer... Link to comment
CB4now 1 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I'm responding to number 4 above. Thanks a lot for the solution. I was having the same problem renaming a notebook. In the past, it struck me that, after making a name change, one could save the name change by simply clicking on a different portion of the screen. However, I recently upgraded to version 5.01 and maybe this was one of the changes made by Evernote. Link to comment

I see other people have copied the particular note to which they are making reference. I don't know how to do this. Thanks. Link to comment

Brando 0 Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 ahhh this forum is great. This little problem was driving me mad this morning. I guess I have't renamed a stack in AGES! So I didn't know what the deal was. The hitting 'enter' did it. Link to comment
ecoastpro 0 Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 The key is to hit 'ENTER' after you rename. Link to comment
Level 5* jefito 5,589 Posted December 16, 2014 Level 5* Share Posted December 16, 2014 The key is to hit 'ENTER' after you rename. Ah, thank you. I think that the original poster figured that out a number of posts ago: I found the problem...I just wasn't renaming the stack properly. In most renaming functions (such as in Windows Explorer) you can right-click, select re-name, enter the name and then click on the folder. The name is saved. However; I found that I needed to hit the enter key for the renaming to save. Link to comment
