Juggy 13 Posted January 13, 2014 Posted January 13, 2014 Hi all, I really love Evernote and I use it every day and I want to back it up somehow. I have a lot of personal and sensitive information in Evernote so I just want to know how I could back it up without compromising my security? I don't want to back it up and then realise that I exposed my Evernote material to the whole world. How can I back it up while maintaining security? What's the best way to back it up? Please help me!

On Mac, Time Machine will get the data.http://www.christopher-mayo.com/?p=962
Juggy 13 Posted January 15, 2014 Author Posted January 15, 2014 Alright, thanks for your replies. I'm already using Time Machine for backup. I just wanted to export my Evernote notebooks somehow in case something happened to my Evernote account. How do I do export Evernote notebooks without revealing my notebooks to the whole world? Thanks!

Thanks!All Notes -> select everything -> right-click -> export as .html or .enex. Why would you think this would expose anything to anyone? I am a little confused by this concern, and I wonder if you have something in mind. Your notes are never exposed to anyone unless you "share" them.

Thanks! Hi again Juggy I also use time machine but I like to have everything backed up in the cloud as well. The service that I mentioned earlier (cloud hq) syncs my entire Evernote data into Google drive. It doesn't have to be Google Drive. It could be dropbox or whatever.

Stue 0 Posted January 17, 2014 Posted January 17, 2014 I use a program called evernote exporter. I export the backup to a local folder on my computer that is synced to google drive in the cloud.

Do you copy + paste the Evernote exported file? CloudHQ is a service that syncs between cloud accounts, so once I authorize it to use evernote I just ask it to sync the data automatically to a folder in Google drive. It does not reside on my computer, it just works in the cloud. I also backup my entire hard-drive to sugarsync and then cloud hq re-syncs this with Google Drive. This gives me multiple backups of all my data. When evernote is converted to a file structure it isn't very pretty but it will do in case of a disaster.
