(Archived) Specify import notebook?

[dmee 3]

Hi,

I love Evernote but am getting tied in knots with importing stuff :-(

I want webclipper to stick stuff in my WebPages notebook, ScanSnap into ScansToCheck etc etc etc and nowhere can I find a way of specifying which notebook they go into

They basically all seem to end up in the last notebook the app had open

HELP!!

On the Windows client, clipped web pages and imported files will go into the currently-selected notebook, or they will go into your account's "default" notebook if you don't have any notebooks selected (e.g. if you've selected "all notebooks").

Which is not much use if you are on the wrong notebook. So I take it there's no option to specify ntebooks then :-(

Yes, the current system is more convenient if you just want to pick a notebook and then clip a bunch of notes ... you don't need to manually specify the destination of each note. We realize this isn't ideal for other use cases, so we're considering options.

Thanks

My default notebook is _Inbox. The underscore puts it at the top of the list. It's very easy to go to the _Inbox notebook when I'm using the desktop client & move the notes to the appropriate notebook. NBD.
