catsknit started following strange note I did not create, Permanently Delete Tag, Introducing Home, launching on Mac, Windows, and Evernote Web and 4 others

I'm on the legacy Windows client so this may not apply but for me it's right click on the tag and it brings up the options. Have you tried that?

Introducing Home, launching on Mac, Windows, and Evernote Web
catsknit replied to Shane D.'s topic in Community Announcements
Same here. Any news on how long 6.25.1 will still be working? I have avoided updating after trying out the beta version and not being happy with it. Already, the sync button no longer works, although the syncing does appear to be happening in the background. Not sure if the import folder is still working either. -
Evernote is taking features away instead of adding new features

Yep, I did the beta testing and removed it after about a week. I'm back to using 6.25 with no plans to upgrade until I see a lot of improvement in the new version. The import folder and sync button were the big deal-breakers for me. If I'm forced to upgrade at some point due to lack of support, and it hasn't improved I will be moving to another platform, after at least 8 years of solid use. -
I have both Legacy and Roots Magic, the free versions, trying them out before deciding which works best for me. I tried a few others as well. I know they can do a lot of things but I haven't had the time to really delve into them well enough to do much. I just imported a gedcom that I saved from Ancestry, where my main tree is (trying to get away from depending on Ancestry) I'm on Windows and android, or I'd check out the Mac stuff you list.

Just an update on how my system is evolving. While I still maintain my tree in genealogy software, along with attached media, I'm using EN more for research notes. Possibly I could keep all that in the software as well but I'm still not very familiar with all the facets of that, while I'm pretty used to EN. Plus, I have EN available on my PC, tablet, phone and even on the web from a friend's or relative's computer if need be. As an example, I have brick wall ancestors, my paternal gggrandfather and gggrandmother, who seem to have fallen from the sky on the day they were married, with no

Can't Take it Any Longer - Migrate Out of Evernote
catsknit replied to MRWConnected's topic in Evernote General Discussions
Actually that's a perfect example of why tagging works much better than nested folders. On my work computer I have my own C drive and the server's "P" drive. I make documents and save them in a folder on C but then have to copy them to P for others to view and use. To get to where I need to put it, I have to tunnel down through P:/spay-neuter clinic/animal care/rounds/2019/June. If I want to view a file in one of those nested folders I have to do the same thing (and many of them go deeper than just 5 levels). But if I use the search function it will usually bring up the correct document -
I just let Firefox update and it's disabling nearly all my extensions, including Web Clipper. When I search for it in the add-ons and try to add it back Firefox tells me it can't download as I have no connection, which is not true. Did you have to re-add the Web Clipper or did it work automatically for you?

FWIW, I have done the opposite of what you were planning to do in the original note - I use Google Drive during the semester as it's an easy way for me to keep my notes for each week's module in Google docs and then in folders on the Google Drive. I also have a lot of articles I have to read as part of my courses, so those are also filed as pdfs in those folders so it's all together. AT the end of the semester I export each document as a pdf and tag it with the course name, semester and year and then put into Evernote so everything is searchable for the future. I have one notebook which is

Just thought I would post how I am using EN for genealogy research. I've been using EN for many years but just started with genealogy last month. While I keep my tree in genealogy software, I have been making a note for each ancestory that I am researching. The title of the note is the full name and year of birth and death (to easily distinguish between multiple ancestors with the same name) I have these in a notebook called Family History, and in the note itself I list research details I've found, along with their source (census, etc). I then save copies of those sources like birth certif

Yes, I was thinking possibly a key combination. I wasn't clipping anything while in FB and in fact don't think I clipped anything that day at all from online. I was also wondering about random FB activity, since it was recently hacked again. I don't think my EN is tied to FB login though.

I just found a note in my Personal Filing Cabinet Notebook (which is not my default notebook, that is !Inbox for the web clipper, etc) which was created on 9/30 and is titled "(84) Facebook" The contents of the note appear to be a huge list of my FB messages overlaid with notifications, etc. I did not consciously make this note but I was on FB that day and probably had EN open as well. Any ideas what created this?

Hmm, just to check again I went to download a few more new templates. I click on Save Template, it says it was saved and offers to open Evernote. When I click on that, EN opens on the web and there is no new template. Figured that might be due to using the older web version so I checked my desktop app as well, synced it, still no new templates. Tried this with 3 different ones, none are saving now, although a few days ago I was able to save several. new bugs I guess....

@TheDBar I am on Windows 10 and using it in the desktop. Have you tried that? When I try it on the web client, first I get the notice that the new version is not supported by my browser (Firefox) and since I don't have Chrome on this laptop (and refuse to install it), it offers to use an older version. When I do that, I can still type within the template itself, BUT I can no longer right-click and get the option to copy it so I don't mess up the original. I assume that's b/c it's an older version.

These are ones I downloaded from the new features.
