Hi PinkElephant - I don't believe you will be able to reproduce the problem on your MacBook. I never experience these issues on any of my Mac laptops. Everything is the latest and greatest on my MacPro. Cheers...

Took a quick screen capture. I wish it also grabbed that damned pinwheel. Aside from the slowness rendering a PDF, it's nearly impossible to scroll through a doc in-line. I'm trying to do that near the end of the capture. This is not an issue on my mac air... Screen Recording 2019-06-25 at 12.02.19 PM.mov

I believe this particular problem is somehow related to an interplay between Evernote and Mac desktop OS X display drivers/graphics system. The problem is extremely laggy in-line (in-note) display of PDFs and other embedded docs (Word, PP, etc.) It's so laggy (constant pin-wheeling) as to render Evernote almost completely useless as a serious productivity tool. The catch is that this is not an issue at all on any Mac laptop I've tested with - including an older, underpowered Air. The laggy issue is on a fully spec'd Mac Pro (late 2013 cylinder model) with dual GPUs. I've completely given up hope that this issue will be resolved. It's been ongoing over many revisions.

An update if anyone cares: We're now at Evernote v.7.10 and the problem has *not* been resolved. It remains intolerably slow and nigh unusable for any note containing PDFs. Interesting post by "krutsch" - I can confirm that viewing embedded PDFs on my underpowered Mac Air laptop is not an issue.

I am also aware that this forum is not Evernote support. I have not contacted them yet. I'm trying to get an idea if 1) these issues have been plaguing other users 2) there are any available performance tweaks

@DTLow Usually PDFs are opened as an attachment - even that process to simply open the PDF is slow. But there are plenty of times when I want to peruse the doc in-line - even if it's just to double-check that it's the correct document. Inline viewing is garbage slow at this point. Just scrolling down a page results in pinwheeling. This was never an issue in the past. I would be able to scroll through a 900 page manual if I wanted.

Running the latest 7.8 on Mac Pro 10.14.2 w/64G RAM + SSD Evernote is extremely slow w/pinwheeling on any notes containing PDFs. It's so slow as to render Evernote almost useless as a productivity app. Any other app (e.g., office, etc.) is blazing fast. This problem has persisted for a while - maybe as early as v.7.2. I've done a full and complete uninstall/install. Evernote is used within my group as a professional productivity app. For years it has been a repository for manuals and the like. Huge PDF manuals were never an issue but now 2 page PDFs result in a pinwheel. Are there any remedies I may have missed or any tuning parameters that can be set? Thanks in advance!

Has anyone experienced any improvements at all since the last posting? As of now, I'm running Evernote 7.8 on a Mac Pro with 64G RAM. It is often intolerably slow. Especially if the note contains a PDF. My group uses this in a professional environment for thousands of notes. This solution no longer seems tenable. edit: Thought I'd add I have an SSD and have already done a complete reinstall...

For me, this is the worst beta yet. Saving an article works 1, at most 2x, before clicking "Save" does nothing at all. I have to then restart Firefox for it to save a clipping. Rinse and repeat. I've deleted the plugin and reinstalled. Mac OS X 10.10.1 Firefox 33.1.1

Quick question for the devs - how will we know when the clipper has been moved from beta? As it stands, on the Firefox extension page, it shows the production clipper has greyed-out since it's disabled. Just curious...

Minor weird formatting to report (OS X, Firefox 31, Clipper 6 Alpha 14): Site: https://docs.puppetlabs.com/mcollective/deploy/standard.html Behaviour: 1) Clip article => article pushed all the way to right in Evernote 2) Clip full page => large grey box displayed in Evernote (shouldn't be there)

The formatting is no good - lacks fidelity. Doesn't matter if I choose selection, full page, etc. 2 samples from the same page, both OS X 10.9.4, first clipped from Safari, then Firefox. Web page: https://wiki.debian.org/HowToIdentifyADevice/System SAFARI: Clipper 6.1.3 FIREFOX 31, Clipper 7/24 Alpha

Clipping is not working at all (endless hourglassing) - Firefox 31, OS X 10.9.4 Latest beta. Removed, resinstalled, restarted, no difference.

It's nice to see a beta out. Using it right now!

And now another month has passed. This is now >3 months since the Evernote "developers" stated it was coming. LAME.
