cjamt 2 Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 I am a new user to Evernote and I am very intrigued. However, I am also very very Cloud averse. Just look at the hacks into credit systems with banking grade security. It is the principle of privacy that is key, as nothing I am storing is of great import or value to anyone but myself. Therefore, everything I put into EN is saved to my HD. Not in the cloud. So why do I get the Note Synchronization dialoge asking for my password every time I open EN? None of the boxes 'Options, Sync" are checked. Just wondering. Thanks, cjamt Link to comment

Thanks, cjamtWell, Evernote is a cloud app. If you are logging out of the app (as opposed to just closing the app), you need to provide login credentials to insure you have an Evernote account. Also, you need at least one sync'd notebook. All others can be local (non-sync'd). Link to comment

I set up a sync'd 'INBOX' and all the rest are local. Should work but I have to be careful when I create notebooks. Thanks again for your help. Signed, don't call me paranoid Link to comment
