Gazumped, thanks for your response. I fear you may well be right - what you say all makes sense. I wish I’d tried the back up option a while ago and before I attempted other solutions. Ah, well, a lesson learned. Thank you again.

Thank you for replying. A sensible suggestion and worth eliminating. I didn’t empty the trash - I use it to keep old pics and documents separate from my current stuff. Interesting: I didn’t realise there was a limit, although I’d not added anything to it recently and I’d been able to access it. I see you’ve suggested ENEX and html backups. Thanks also for that idea. I’m afraid to admit that I’m not good at tech (hence THIS ‘disaster’) and I don’t know what those terms mean or how to enact them.

I had a number of pictures and documents stored in my trash but last week they suddenly disappeared. I use the free version of Evernote (and have been happy with it) but please tell me there is a way to recover my trash. Thank you.
