GiacomoLaw 134 Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 Hi there I recently got a notebook PC, with only 30gb of space, so storage is rare on it. How can I set Evernote to not save my notes locally, in order to save space on my disk? Thanks! Link to comment

There's no option at this time Mobile platforms have a selective sync feature You could use the web platform (www.evernote.com) and nothing is stored locally Link to comment

Level 5* jefito 5,598 Posted September 8, 2016 Level 5* Share Posted September 8, 2016 Another option is to use two accounts, one, the master, which you keep on a machine that has enough space for all your notes, and the second slave account (this can be a free account, btw). Put all of the notes that you need to access from your notebook PC into notebooks that you then share to the slave account. Link to comment

I don't want to do this as I like to keep all my notes in one place, so I can easily search them, etc. Link to comment
