Sharing Note Via Email (From Shared Notebook)

[Tyler B 0]

Hi all,

 

I've been using Evernote for a few months now with my team at work and we all work in the same shared notebook (created by a different user and shared with me). About a month ago I began having issues when trying to share a note from this notebook via email with individuals who are not a part of our team. The option is simply not available when using the Windows desktop application. 

 

We've tested a few different things and anyone working on a Mac client can share notes this way, and I can share if using my Android device. I can also share notes via email (from the Windows client) if they are in a notebook that I created. 

 

Permissions for the shared notebook are "Can view, edit and invite". All of the sharing options are available, except for "Send by E-mail".

 

Any help would be much appreciated!

Not sure how this applies to your situation, but I just updated my version of Evernote on the MAC and they removed the "Share with Email" button that I use ALL THE TIME from the note section itself.  They want you to use the Work Chat, that I will not ever use, to share the notes.  STUPID.

 

So, I did find that I have to go to "Note" menu and then "More Sharing" then "Email Note".  Perhaps you have something similar?

 

Dear Evernote:  Don't fix it if it ain't broke.  Please put the email option back and allow me to get rid of the Work Chat items all together.

@Mulli: I don't think your situation has any connection with the original post,  though it's a frustration that is shared by lots of people.

 

@Tyler B:  If you haven't already tried this,  I'd suggest UNsharing the notebook and re-sharing it to everyone who needs access - the owner of the notebook has more flexibility to add new names (I think) than you as a fellow sharer.  Having said which,  you should be able to permit others to share a note if you wish to do so - signing out of and back into an account seems to update the share feature sometimes.

 

If you're premium users I'd recommend submitting a support request to see if this is a known issue with sharing - failing that,  maybe someone else can suggest an alternative.

 

If you are premium users,  you could also look into the Work Chat feature which also allows sharing of notes...

We've tried unsharing and resharing, no such luck there. As for work chat, it's a very limited feature and rather useless as a lot of what we're sharing is to people who are not Evernote users.

Unless anyone else has an inspiration I can only suggest a support request - even if you have to upgrade for a month or two to use it...
