backspace stopped working on new Evernote mac version


blurgh

Idea

I just updated Evernote via the mac app store, and am now running Evernote version 6.0, 451092 App Store.    However, the new update seems to have disabled the backspace key.    I was wondering if there is any way to downgrade evernote or otherwise fix this issue?

 

Thanks.

OK - this is now my standard response on Evernote 6.x -vs- Yosemite.  There have been comments on various aspects of the update,  and if you search the forums you will be able to find more threads on the subject.  These links may help -

The design is very different,  and if you want to share your view on that,  there's a thread here.

There were some bugs with 6.0,  that are gradually being fixed.  To express your feelings on that,  use this thread.

To fix the initial problems with 6.0 and the later releases,  it's important to download the latest verions of Evernote from their website rather than from the App Store.  The latest version I know of is now here - https://discussion.evernote.com/topic/78578-evernote-for-mac-603-released

It's also advised to completely remove the current installed version of Evernote and to perform a 'clean' reinstall,  after backing up your database and exporting any local notebooks or unsynced notes - https://discussion.evernote.com/topic/77444-how-to-completely-remove-and-reinstall-en-mac/

If the new version is unusable,  it's possible to step back to an earlier version of Evernote after completing the step above - just find an installer for an earlier version.  It's not necessarily a good move to go back though - updates include tweaks and fixes for earlier bugs that you'll be missing.  Check these posts for more information - https://discussion.evernote.com/topic/77171-how-do-i-revert-back-to-previous-version-of-everynote/

Don't know how far this impacts any problems you may be having,  but Yosemite apparently has some issues of its own - http://lifehacker.com/fix-yosemite-wi-fi-issues-with-a-terminal-command-1663414063/all

 

Whoa, I never gave Evernote permission to add my image.   That's not cool.    

 

What image?

Thanks.   I've removed the old version, installed the latest download from Evernote, but still have the backspace problem.  I'll monitor the discussions you suggest however.

 

I manged to remove my image.   But apparently I had signed up for gravitar at some point and had my picture in there.   I'm used to forums asking me for personal information first.

 

Again, thanks for the help!
