Level 5* gazumped 12,131 Posted December 17, 2013 Level 5* Share Posted December 17, 2013 Hi and welcome to the forums. Due respect, but if you're in a group sharing the same user name and password you're going to have major problems anytime now. Your only safeguards are:get a reference backup of your database nowcheck for 'conflicting changes' regularlyif you're not already a premium member then you should consider it urgently - there's a 'note history' where you can step back changes if necessary check the trash notebook regularly for deletions (they aren't included in note history)consider everyone having their own free account and sharing one notebook with everyone else*consider Evernote Business which allows separate users and shares a 'library' of common notes* Evernote have recently started allowing free users one share with edit privileges. If the leader of your group keeps a copy of the shared notes in a private notebook as well as sharing the originals you can all see them, and use the shared notebooks as a way to discuss and collaborate on suggested changes.

Moochtm 0 Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 +1 for the "lock note" feature request. I'd like to be able to do this, as I keep a notebook of note templates and would like to ensure I don't accidentally delete or edit any of them. Link to comment
Olli 11 Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Hi imperative, another suggestion:Create a second Evernote Account.Create a notebook within this Account.Put your "locked" notes in this notebook.Share this notebook as readonly with your "Group-Evernote-Account".Result: No one with access to the Group-Evernote-Account will be able to delete/change the notes of the shared notebook. By the way: Sharing an Evernote Account is a funny idea to me... :-) Kind regards, Olli Link to comment
Level 5* jefito 5,598 Posted March 18, 2014 Level 5* Share Posted March 18, 2014 By the way: Sharing an Evernote Account is a funny idea to me... :-)Why? I do this and share notebooks between my personal account and my work account. Makes things a lot easier to access my software development library (on my personal account) and work items on my work account when I am working at home. Link to comment
Olli 11 Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Hi Jefito, I use EN for professional issues too. But I simple share Notebooks - not the EN-Account itself as imperative has mentioned. This is a big difference to me.Even at work I have "personal" notes, that are important for my work and I store them into "my" EN-Account.So I can't see the advantage for sharing the whole EN-account instead of some notebooks.So that's the reason why I found (and still find) this idea funny :-) In fact, I use two (paid) EN-Accounts: one for professional issues, one for private ones. They are connected via one notebook ("_interchange_notes"), in case I have to transfer notes from one account to another.This works very well to me. Kind regards, Olli Link to comment
skywinder 2 Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 Two accounts - is nice workaround, but quite inconvenient for day-by-day using. So, +1 for this feature! Link to comment
Rita Diana Bagay 0 Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 +1 to feature request of locking notes. I use mine as templates as well. Link to comment
