  1. Update, a few days after the last posts on this thread, Evernote loaded up and it worked, up until a week ago. Back to same thing, only loads so far (viewed in Task Manager) and then just stops loading. I cannot submit a trouble ticket as I am not a paid user.

    Anybody is welcome to challenge a solution that doesn’t work for him - but this requires trying it first !

    Chromebook, use Evernote Web Client.

    I took the solution, and after a slight learning curve, V10 was working great, no "can't save note" issues. As more days passed clicking into a notebook, had to wait for the notes to open, longer and longer.

    All other websites work normally on this Chromebook, no issues there.

    Evernote auto-logs users out after certain amount of time requiring a new login. Went to webpage and can see Evernote home page. Logged in to see my notes. Blank white screen, no notices of any kind.

    Viewing the loading process in Task Manager, it climbs to nearly 100K (it requires about 120 to show anything, up to that it's a blank white screen), then it goes back down to 70K or so and stops loading and 0 CPU activity.

    I have cleared all cookies that say "evernote" and all local data associated with them, restarted my Chromebook, set "Always Allow Evernote Cookies including 3rd Party" ... and no luck.

    At present I only have the Chromebook, no other devices to use to try and log onto Evernote. EDIT: I was able to try my Fire 8 tablet and same result, won't load on that although other websites work fine.

    "Have you tried it in Incognito or with all extensions turned off?" -- yes and yes. No luck.

     All other websites work fine on my Chromebook.

    I found a thread on a similar issue from March and posted there also:

    I'll also be looking for a bug report site to mention this. 

    I'm mentioning this here on this thread just as feedback on the solution given for the issue. Because, yes it initially worked. It worked great. But only for a few days.

    Before I changed to V10, while I was on the Classic Version of Evernote, couldn't edit but at least could see my notes but now cannot even see my notes.

    Since it will not load past a white screen there's no screen to make any selections, or juggle back to the Classic Version.

    Appears I've lost all my notes at this point unless something changes.

    Results will of course vary with user. 

     

     

     

  3. Hello everyone,

    Chromebook, use Evernote web client.

    Apologize, I know this is from March. However, I recently upgraded to Evernote V10 from the classic version. It worked really great for a few days, then an experience I've never had with Evernote before. All other websites work fine on my Chromebook.

    The last 2 days the webpage with the notes (unlike this discussion.evernote.com page) won't load at all, I can log in and then ...

    Viewing the loading process in Task Manager, it climbs to nearly 100K (it requires about 120 to show anything, up to that it's a blank white screen), then it goes back down to 70K or so and stops loading. I have cleared all cookies that say "evernote" and all data associated with them, restarted my Chromebook, set Always Allow Evernote Cookies including 3rd Party ... and no luck.

    Any advice? 

    Thank you in advance.

     

    Edit: "Have you tried it in Incognito or with all extensions turned off -- yes to that. No luck.

    Can you say more about that last part? I've been using v. 10 for a couple of years and I haven't seen this. With a notebook selected in the left panel I get the view below. Maybe quitting Evernote entirely (File > Quit) and restarting might clear it up.

    Thank you for reply ... at first that second column had only the title of the Folder (your "Business Card & Contact Info" column) and below that was blank, but your solution worked. Thank you!

    ............................................

    Back to this thread, as a recap of my experience to date ...

    To solve my Can't Save Note issue, I navigated to Avatar/Account>Settings>Account Summary and in the middle was offered 3 versions: the New, the Previous and the Classic. 

    I chose the New version and that solved the Can't Save problem at issue; but. as that presented some unrelated issues, I went back to Account Summary, and chose the Classic Version.

    Choosing the Classic Version resulted in a 3-column format similar to the New Version; this one did not have the Can't Save issue but presented unrelated issues. Went back to Account Summary and chose the Previous Version, which returned me to the older version, which has the Can't Save issue (on some notes), but not the issues of the Newer Versions.

    Learned that Evernote welcomes user feedback, Googled for how to do that, and sent Evernote my personal feedback to date on the New Version versus the Old Version.

    Sincere thanks again to all who helped out on this thread.

    Actually nobody cares if you like it or not when proposing this solution - because it is what works.

    Use the new version for a week or so, on computers and on mobile, and you will discover how convenient it is that nearly all functions look the same, feel the same and work the same no matter which client on which platform you use.

    And then you will start to understand (if not like it then).

    Thank you very much for that kind observation. I care whether I like it or not.

    I'll take the advice. For one thing I don't like, on the new version is much reduced space for the actual note and 2 columns to the left instead of one; the column that purports to list the notes in a notebook is completely blank.

  6. Well here it is late September 2023. I was using Legacy version but now that has a huge glitch (the thread on that issue is here: 

    )

    Since the Legacy version simply does not function at all now, I had to switch to the New version and the issue I'm writing about is the same one being discussed on this thread 2 years ago. 

    Formerly (in Legacy) when on a note I could do Control+P and that note could be saved as a PDF. 

    Now, today, on a note did Control+P and the system attempted to save 34,000 pages, ie, which looks like it would be all the my notes in Evernote, not just the one I was attempting to save. And, this attempt causes Evernote to freeze.

    Tried just selecting the text of the note and Control+P, still not working.

    So is this still an issue in 2023 with the new Evernote? 

     

  7.  

    Today, I'm having the same issue of immediate "Couldn't Save Note". However, if I wait a while and try it works for a time then starts the issue again.

    I'm used to getting these messages from time to time as I have low-priced, slower Internet, however today is unusually bad.

    As a side note, I find this system to be better than the old system when EN would automatically make copies of a note then you don't know which was the main one you were working on and had to delete these copies.

    In fact, after getting the message and waiting, a while eventually the note I'm working on did fill in with my latest edits so that was helpful.

    I'm on Chrome OS which means I don't download EN but always access it online in a browser window, leading me to assume that whatever version I see is the latest. But today looked at my Settings and it sez, "You're using the New Evernote Web" with another option to "Go back to the Classic version." 

    So .... I empathize with everyone who has posted about experiencing this which seems to be some issue with the system today.

    Thanks to those who are volunteering their help on this thread.

     

  8. I continue to try uninstalling, reinstalling, removing cookies, etc. and nothing. However, on the Chrome Web Store, Evernote Web Clipper, if you click Support, the developer is responding:

    "We are actively working on several fixes."

    If you post there, please include details, particularly they want to know:

    • In your case, is it broken for every page? Or just specific sites?
    • Have you tried reinstalling the clipper?

     

  9. Same issue here ... on a Chromebook, had not used Web Clipper in a few weeks, now on any website, and after all the usual gyrations such as uninstall and reinstall, reboot, etc., click the Elephant and nothing happens at all. I have noted this on the Chrome Webstore support page for Evernote Web Clipper. I had noted in a couple past years similar issues apparently after Web Clipper was updated and those obviously eventually worked themselves out so hopefully this can be fixed also. Thank you.

    Tried on Mac, Safari: No problem, standard clipping, clip appears after a short wait in EN v10.26 Mac.

    It is however not a „nice“ website, the clip contains a lot of stuff that has nothing to do with the content, but a lot with how this page is selling you ads while having your attention to it. I think that probably some of this stuff creates the problem - because the dynamic content of the ads will change while you have the page open.

    Sometimes I have had this reloading problem myself. Occasionally it helps to reload, sometimes it helps to switch into reader mode, sometimes I am forced to clip using a different tool. It is not WebClipper, it it the weird world of modern websites that kill the experience.

    But this page, as posted above, was working pretty well when clipped.

    Thank you. So it's working on other OSs but on Chrome OS, even with all extensions disabled, nothing happens when click the elephant. This is interesting, been using Clipper a whole lot over several years and haven't run into this before!

    Clipper's not a 100% solution - sometimes I get around this issue on random pages by using the browser features to 'print' the page to PDF and attach that file to a note;  others by copy/ paste / alternative page grabbers like Nimbus screenshot etc. etc...

    Yes, I get around it by just using copy and paste, but Web Clipper has somewhat spoiled me in that it's so doggone easy. ;)

    I don't know about this specific site but some block web clipping. For example my bank prevents the use of screen shots which also affects the web clipper. Could that be the issue? What about other pages from nbcnews.com?

    Same result with articles from nbcnews.com -- would someone else not using Chrome OS try to use Web Clipper on that site and advise?

  13. First of all if I posted this in the wrong place apologies.

    Next, I'm on Chromebook and using only the online version, I cannot "install" anything.

    My question is, does Web Clipper not work on certain pages?

    It is working on other pages but not when I try to clip this page:

    https://www.nbcnews.com/think/opinion/afghanistan-war-neocons-george-w-bush-would-you-know-isn-ncna1277267

    Click the green elephant and nothing happens.

    I've disabled and re-enabled it, and get message "this page needs to be reloaded before you can clip it", reload page and again same result.

     

    Thanks.
