hippiebobob 0 Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 The last few days I have been on the road doing presentations in Keynote, while in those presentations after 5-10 min it will boot me out and bring up evernote. I thought it was just keynote but this happened with outlook and iTunes. As i write this post it did it with safari as well, it basically brings the window to the front. This is getting extremely annoying and I cannot find find a solution. any thoughts? Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 11,652 Posted December 12, 2014 Level 5* Share Posted December 12, 2014 What is the Evernote window you keep on seeing? The full app? The login prompt? Link to comment
hippiebobob 0 Posted February 3, 2015 Author Share Posted February 3, 2015 i keep seeing the full app. For example i will be presenting with key note and it will slide me out of keynote and open evernote. Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 11,652 Posted February 4, 2015 Level 5* Share Posted February 4, 2015 OK - that's just strange. What's your OS? Is there a specific move that seems to trigger Evernote - a scroll, or a slide change? Link to comment
BTay48 0 Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 I'm actually getting this same issue today all of a sudden. I noticed it started happening when I'd logged into the evernote website in safari. I thought maybe the web app was trying to push me back to the OS based app, but then I closed out of Safari and it keeps happening. (e.g. as I try to type this my mac keeps switching to Evernote on its own; also does this in other apps, word, outlook, etc.) Seems like something is calling attention to something happening in the Evernote app. It literally looks like I'm command-tab-ing back to Evernote, but I most definitely am not. Haven't noticed any sort of trigger on my end, it happens even if I'm not typing or moving my mouse. Help! Super annoying! Have to keep Evernote totally closed to prevent right now... -- Macbook Air, OS X 10.9.5 Link to comment
hippiebobob 0 Posted February 9, 2015 Author Share Posted February 9, 2015 EVERNOTE support recommended i delete and re instal. Did that, and ran a test presentation and not even 59 seconds in it popped me out my presentation and into evernote. Even with mine closed it will pop open. CRAZY ANNOYING! -MACBOOK AIR 10.10.2 Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 11,652 Posted February 9, 2015 Level 5* Share Posted February 9, 2015 Big reports required I think gents - submit a bug report by choosing "report a bug..."

BTay48 0 Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Bug report submitted. Any tips on what to do in the meantime? Pretty frustrating since Evernote is critical to my workflow. Link to comment
hippiebobob 0 Posted February 10, 2015 Author Share Posted February 10, 2015 ya im dealing with tech support, have sent in a few bug reports now. no solution at all.

Level 5* JMichaelTX 4,117 Posted February 10, 2015 Level 5* Share Posted February 10, 2015 If this is an important, urgent issue for you, you may want to invest the $5 in a one-month Premium account upgrade so you can get full Evernote support, including real-time Support Chat. See Evernote Chat Support., available business days 7am-7pm US CST. (Chat option appears AFTER you click “Continue” on initial “Evernote Support” page.) Link to comment
hippiebobob 0 Posted February 10, 2015 Author Share Posted February 10, 2015 already done, they are working on it. posted here hopefully for some outside info. thanks. Link to comment
wflack 0 Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 I am having this problem too. Has anyone at Evernote come up with a solution yet? Its really annoying. Thanks Link to comment
hippiebobob 0 Posted February 24, 2015 Author Share Posted February 24, 2015 nothing yet, they asked me to instal there version from the website and delete the app store version. this solved nothing. I came to the point where iv had to delete it from my mac. and use the web browser version. This is extremely disappointing, especially as a premium member. Hope a solution is found so I can go back to how things where working in the past. Link to comment
Level 5* JMichaelTX 4,117 Posted February 25, 2015 Level 5* Share Posted February 25, 2015 If you have exhausted all other remedies, you can try a clean install of EN Mac (if you have not already done so).During the removal phase, be sure that you make max use of the application uninstalled to find and remove all traces of Evernote. Be sure to install the DirectDL ver from Evernote.com. See How to Completely Remove and Reinstall EN Mac Link to comment
drhundertwasser 1 Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 I had this problem, too, with EN "Version 6.0.15 (451807 App Store)" I discovered a very simple fix, perhaps it will work for you, too. I had turned off the menu bar helper. When I turned it back on, the problem went away. I noticed this because I was seeing a very fast blip of something in my menu bar every time Evernote came to the front. I stared at the menu bar long enough until I I could see that the blip was actually a microsecond flash of the little elephant. So I turned the menu bar helper on, and Evernote became polite again, not popping to the front. Then I turned the menu bar helper off again and so far, so good, the problem has not returned. You can find the setting here: Evernote > Preferences > General > "Show Evernote Helper in Menu Bar" Link to comment
