When I need to find something on my Mac, I can search for anything--except on evernote.

I may have saved a file to the computer,. or to a cloud site.   I could have placed it in a word file or a texteddit file or excel.  I might have written a reminder or shated it via mail to someone.  It could have been a discussion in a text.    It could have  been handwritten notes on a photo.

I used to be able to search for it all in spotlight.  Now if not in spotlight, I have to open Evernote and search there.  And  if it's in both places, I might use one of thavehe searches and think I have all of the information I need.

It takes extra time, more memory and increases the chance of errors.  I've yet to find another application or tool that stoires information on my computer that prevents me from finding it using the search tool built into the operating system.

I'm not a programmer or engineer and have no idea why this was done.  But it is an impediment to my gathering my own information.  I know I am not the only one.  I also know that some trolls find great pleasure in putting down anyone who needs something that they do not need or want, or those who don't know enough to figure workarounds (for thiings that should not need workarounds).

Well said!

I can confirm that this has been fixed. Just confirmed on version 10.8.4 mac.

and, in addition, it was a REAL filter to drill down notes by tags used by the list of notes. Current filter just shows ALL tags Evernote has stored - that‘s bad. I mentioned this in the iOS forum, but it‘s valid for all platforms (V10).

 

 

Yes this is exactly what I was looking for today.

Effectively drilling down to a given note, or note-set, by filtering the tags of the notes returned each time. Another feature that I used constantly to swiftly find an intended note, or set of notes, NOT available in the new release! ! 

Today I discovered another bad design decision also hampering on productivity - see https://discussion.evernote.com/forums/topic/131673-issues-with-modifying-tagsfiltering-tags/?tab=comments#comment-596504

A new major release of a productivity app that hinders your productivity by removing or badly implementing key features reflects very badly, what's going on evernote team?

Same issue on mac and it took around 15 minutes before tag filtering of new note showed up!!

Very annoying and counterproductive.
