    Evernote is a cloud service.    
    The master database is stored on the servers, and accessed by both Legacy   and Version 10

    Thank you for the hand-holding. I've reverted back to the legacy. I'll get everything backed up and wait here until they fix all the bugs.

    Honestly, I've been so busy lately, I didn't even realize it was a major change. I was just frustrated that searching for notes had gotten so hard. I kept going to my "How To" tag and searching for my tips and it kept giving me notes from every folder that I own.... and I've been on evernote for a long time. 

    It was only today, when my internet went down that I took the time to realize that I wasn't in Kansas anymore.

    Are you sure you want to use "the latest version of Evernote" (Version 10)   
    It's a work-in-progress and imho not ready for general use

    You might be happier using the Legacy product

    OMG...  I did this to myself?   I remember a long time ago..maybe 3 years ago.., I was giving beta feedback but that ended a long time ago. Does this mean that I am still on the beta feedback program?

    What makes you think you're going to lose data?    
    I haven't a problem with Evernote losing data, but I always back up my data; daily incremental and weekly full

    When I revert back to the legacy version. There is no guarantee that the two systems have exactly the same database.  It was just bad timing. I was finalizing my thesis, really busy, and didn't realize this was a MAJOR overhaul of the system or I would have done a folder level backup. 

    I backed up as well but that was only as a nightmare situation of me losing everything and having to import back into another program. It's not something that I want to do since I won't have my folders and will have to painstakingly reorganize years of content. 

    And, of course, you can't backup this new system. 
     

  4. I'm about to go back to the legacy version but I'm terrified about how much data I'm going to lose. I didn't realize they were doing a MAJOR overhaul of the entire system or I would have never agreed.

    I'm going to save all my data but I won't know for a long time how much data was lost .... a tag here, a date there, a link missing.... for months. By then, I won't be able to revert back to an older version to recover the data because I will have added more data. 

    I only realized today when my internet was down that I have no access to my notes without a GOOD connection.
