Thank you, but since we used to have the functionality, and they have removed it, chances are nil that they'll put it back. What a shame.

Yeah, thanks.

So, one CAN change where the helper app saves new notes - you can change the location to any synced notebook. The list will not include any local notebooks. That's a big, irritating change.

Well, until this version, I could specify where this helper app saved the notes. Is there NO WAY to change that? Why would they alter the app's behavior? Don't most people use the helper app to gather info for a note? This seems less than optimal for anyone's use of EN. Yes, I know I can drag the stuff in, or I could go to the main app and just make a note there. But seriously...

I've used EN for years. I'd like to continue to use it the way I've always used it. Is there some way to make the mini-menu write to a different notebook? I'll keep the default as an empty notebook, as I have for many versions in the past. I just want MY notes to go elsewhere. Glad for others to sync, I don't need it to.

I don't synchronize anything at all. I've used Evernote since it was a standalone db which one could actually fill up and need to start over. Can't remember how many years that's been. Whatever the elephant is called on the Mac menu bar, that lets you begin a note from clips, pictures and text will always go to the default notebook, at least that's my experience. I want it to always go to a local notebook. Or turn off syncing entirely.

I updated to EN 7.9 (mostly by mistake) and am still trying to get back where I was previously. I've used EN for an eternity, and still want to keep all of my notes local to my computer, backing them up via Time Machine, as always. However, now my standard notebook, which is local, is no longer the default in EN, and I see no way to make it so. If I right-click on the local notebook in the notebook list I get only "Delete Notebook" as an option, and under "Preferences" the default lists contains only the single non-local empty notebook I had to keep around. I would use this other notebook if there was any way to turn off syncing on it. Any hints gratefully accepted.

This is a brand-new problem for me, and one I don't understand. I try to never sync. Ever. I have used EN for a decade, keeping everything local (as I wish to) and backed up via timemachine. I don't need to share my notes across platforms, just need a local repository for all the things I want to keep, which EN has always done well. So somehow, I seem to have synced part of a months' worth of notes to the webversion, and must have hit this darned limit. I don't want to have anything stored in the cloud. Can I delete all my notes on the web, and regain this "space," or will that remove the actual notes on my desktop version? Or is EN only concerned with what goes thru their upload process (the 60MB) and not the actual storage space used on their servers? At least now one can remove the sync button from the toolbar, which will make it easier to keep this from happening by mistake in the future. Any help/advice/solutions very much appreciated.
