Why can't I update my Evernote (Mac version)?

[mrstucci 16]

I am a Premium Evernote user. When I open Evernote there is a window that pops up that says there is a new version available would I like to update?? Yes. That would be nice. But every single time there is an error. Every time. I can't remember the last time that I was able to update successfully. I am sure that I have but it's been a long time it seems. I have 5.6.0 Beta 6. What's going on? Is it my Evernote? My Mac? I am running Yosemite. I am very frustrated. Thank you for any help, Judy

Here are my recommendations dealing with this problem:

 

1. DON’T PANIC

 

2. Make sure you have a backup of your data (Enex export and Time Machine).

 

3. Download the lastest version (6.0.2) from the Evernote site!

 

4. And for a secure removal and re-installation read this.

 

5. Alternatively, you can perform the secure removal and try to install the App Store version but I do not recommend it, it has bugs.

 

6. Good Luck!
