sync failed because you have more than 250 synchronized notebooks

[Maximus02 1]

Hi

 

I have just come back to Evernote after trying it out a couple of years ago. I am using Windows 7 Professional.

 

I am getting the error "sync failed because you have more than 250 synchronized notebooks" even though I only have 2 notebooks created

 

Below the error it says "You have 2 synchronised notebooks. Please delete some of the synchronised note books and try again".

 

As I have just started using Evernote again, the 2 notebooks are presently empty as is the Trash.

 

Any ideas about what is wrong?

 

Any help appreciated.

 

Max

Several people have reported this problem. 

 

Here is Evernote's solution:

Congratulations, by the way, on the biggest "difference between the real world number of my notebooks and your error message" score so far.  Anyone with only 1 current notebook seen it yet?

Yes, I have only 1 current notebook - brand new and empty, too, because I just joined Evernote.

Thanks for replies.

 

The problem seems to have cured itself.

 

After I put a couple of notes into the notebooks I was no longer getting this error.

 

All seems well now.

 

Thanks again.

..And you're getting the 'more than 250 notebooks' error?  Odd.  Try @ Maximus02's trick of creating a note or two...

Creating a note (on my machine) did not solve the problem.  Going online and creating a note in the web version did, however, solve it.  All working now.
