Scanning sends to the open folder instead of one in settings


Recommended Posts

Under Tools->Import Folders, I have a temp directory set up.  That directory is set to send all scans to the .INBOX folder.  The problem is that if I have Evernote open and have a different folder open.  When I scan a document to that temp folder, Evernote picks it up and puts it in the open folder, NOT the .INBOX.  Is this something I can stop?

 

If it helps, I use an AmbirScan and have a function set to save the scans to the Evernote temp directory.  Everything works great unless I have a folder open other than INBOX.  Sometimes I switch before I realized what happened and can't find where the scans went!

? Make sure you have Evernote closed before you start scanning ?  I haven't noticed any similar problems with Evernote;  whatever notebook you decide should get the scans seems (AFAIK) to receive them whether or not Evernote is open when you scan.

If it's closed, it works fine, but it would be a real pain to close it and open it when I'm doing scans.  I know how it SHOULD work, it's just not working that way for me... :-)

Check the Tools > Options > Clipping settings - try tick/ unticking options in the 'clip destination' area - don't know whether this will have an effect,  but it's the only option that seems available...
