mkayi 5 Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 I guess I have a blockhead phase right now, but how exactly do I find all the notes I haven't assigned any tags to at all? Link to comment
BurgersNFries 2,407 Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Select all notebooks. Check the tags column in the list view. (Assuming you are looking for notes w/o tags as stated in the OP, rather than the opposite, which is your subject line.) Link to comment
mkayi 5 Posted September 29, 2009 Author Share Posted September 29, 2009 Jesus Christ, it must have gotten quite too late for me here tonight!Sorry for the confusion. Yes, the title was wrong, I was looking for notes without tags. I edited it, thanks. And thanks a lot for the working answer! Link to comment

mkayi 5 Posted October 2, 2009 Author Share Posted October 2, 2009 this last reply reminds me of something else I wanted to ask: where do I find a list of these search terms? I couldn't find them in the manual... somehow. Link to comment
cjhabs 0 Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 It is in the Evernote API overview PDF document - I don't have the url to hand. Link to comment
Level 5 jbenson2 2,149 Posted October 2, 2009 Level 5 Share Posted October 2, 2009 You can find them at this site:http://www.evernote.com/about/developer/api/evernote-api.htmBut it is not user-friendly, so I have been piecing together tips from this forum and storing them in my Evernote notes.I have 4 major ones right now. Every search I do gets stored in one of them.My search examples for Evernote - peopleMy search examples for Evernote - placesMy search examples for Evernote - thingsMy search examples for Evernote - datesI also have a note for Evernote Keyboard Shortcuts Link to comment

efforting 0 Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 I am using the most recent mac version of Evernote.As far as I can tell, I do not have a "tags" view in the column list options and when I search for -tags or "-tags" nothing happens, just shows all my notes.What am I missing?

crane 40 Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 try searching for -tag:*"tag" is one of the keywords for search."tag:abc" would find all notes tagged with abc."tag:*" would find all notes tagged with anything"-tag:*" finds all notes that are NOT tagged with anything.-tags will just find notes that don't have the word -tags in them somewhereHope this helps.

iratau 0 Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 I'm having trouble mixing the tag: and the -tag: optionsThe problem occurs when I want to search on any tag in list A that does not have a tag from list BFor example:I want to find all notes that are tagged "do-next" or "do-soon" but are NOT tagged with "done"If I search as follows tag:do-next tag:do-soon -tag:done then I get all notes.

crane 40 Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 EN doesn't support combining terms that way. If you search for tag:do-next tag:do-soon -tag:done, then you're searching for all notes that have do-next AND done but NOT done. If you search for "any: tag:do-next tag:do-soon -tag:done", then you're searching for all notes that either EITHER do-next OR done OR don't have done, which would result in a lot of notes.You *might* be able to do something with a saved search, i.e., a two-step filter process, e.g., create a saved search that searches for "any: tag:do-next tag:do-soon". Select that saved search. Then, now that your notes are filtered, do a search in the search box for -tag:done. That should work in Windows 3.1, but I don't think it will work in Windows 3.5 (I recall reading a forum post about this type of operation no longer working.) Link to comment
