Hi, and welcome to the forums. I just tested, and found that this is working for me. There have been a couple of reports (here and here) of failure to paste into the Web version of Evernote, but you're using the Windows desktop program. Assuming that image pasting is working in other programs, and that the problem is not related to the source of the image (Web, other program, local drive), you might try closing Evernote completely (File > Exit; or use the Task Manager; the red X box only closes the interface), and then restarting it. This sometimes clears up snafus in memory. Options past that include rebooting the computer and reinstalling Evernote. But hopefully it won't come to that.

I tested this on the latest versions of the Android, Windows, and Web beta clients. Here are the results for both searching all notes and searching within a single note (+ means the client did find or highlight, - means it did not; table created in Evernote Windows and Web): Android Windows Web beta All notes + Find, - Highlight + Find, + Highlight + Find, - Highlight Within a note - Find, - Highlight - Find, - Highlight - Find, - Highlight Thus currently (May 1, 2020), only the Windows program, of the 3 tested, highlights found text in an image; and none of them can even find text in an image when searching in an individual note. I agree that this used to work in the Android app; I'm not sure about earlier Windows and Web versions (I didn't test the "previous" Web client). It definitely should be restored and made functional across all platforms. Hopefully the ongoing major redo of the editor across platforms (represented in its current state, as I understand it, in the Web beta) will address this.

Thanks, @gazumped. In the meantime, after doing some tests it seems that Cronofy have got it back up and running. Reminders created or deleted in Evernote create and delete new Calendar events; and editing date/time in either Evernote or Calendar syncs with the other. So, yay. 👍 But I'll keep the Filterize information for reference.

Yes, after doing some tests it seems that they have got it back up and running. Reminders created or deleted in Evernote create and delete new Calendar events; and editing date/time in either Evernote or Calendar syncs with the other. Further info: A subsequent email from Cronofy told me that they had spoken to Evernote, who resolved the issue on their side. The events created in Google Calendar do not have reminders/notifications when Cronofy creates them; you have to add them manually in Calendar. Also, whereas formerly the Calendar events included a cronofy.com link they now include an evernote.com/shard link.

In my experience, they go into the default notebook when no notebook is named in the subject line of the email. And often even if a different notebook is named there. I've found that notebook names with spaces won't work; either omit the space or use a . instead of it.

Hi, and welcome to the forums. I'm having the same problem (I've used Cronofy with Evernote for years). I contacted Cronofy, and they say that their engineers have identified a change that Evernote made that is causing the issue, and they are working on a fix. See the discussion in this thread:

@gazumped, can you say more? I've never used Filterize, but since Cronofy is currently not working to sync Evernote with Google Calendar, I'm trying to work with reminders to get a visible list in a separate window. I've saved a search for reminders in the next 3 days and made it a shortcut. But even then I have to manipulate Top List or Side List views and sort orders to see what's coming up, and this interferes with the way I prefer to view my notes.

@Martin Saxby and @Ray Sidney-Smith, please see my first post in the thread! Cronofy engineers are aware of the problem (resulting from a recent change in Evernote), and are working on a solution. I will post here as soon as I hear anything from them. No harm in others contacting them too, and posting what they learn here.

Without add-ons, there are different ways of viewing the Note List. Just clicking the arrow to the left of Reminders, of course, opens the reminder list, and I believe that is "sticky" from one Evernote session to another. Curiously, there doesn't seem to be a KB shortcut to take you to the Reminders list. Experimenting with different Note List views and sort orders (the two icons between the number of notes and the tag icon) might get you farther along.

For myself, to be sure of getting exactly what I want (a version of the Evernote notes database on my PC that exactly matches what is online), I would in fact move the Evernote database to another drive, and probably uninstall Evernote altogether, then reinstall it and let it sync to the online database. As @DTLow says, the chances of having a problem by just starting Evernote on the PC are very, very small. But a fresh install and download is the most certain, IMHO.

Strange. @CalS, is that in Edge?

@AndreasM, what is the situation in which copy/paste is failing for you? If you set forth the problem some of us non-existent gurus might be stupid enough to actually help you.

Another method might be, when viewing the PDF or PPT page, to use Evernote's screen capture function (Win key + PrintScreen). That will let you select an area of the screen, which is immediately pasted into a new note as a .png image. You can annotate that image using Evernote's annotation function (right-click on image, then Annotate This Image, or Annotate a Copy of This Image). The screenshot below shows an example of this, done by clipping from @dan555555's post, and in Evernote adding (clumsily) the word THIS) at the bottom. Individual notes created this way (it won't add an image to an existing note) can later be merged together as needed.

Just WRT this, if you do the survey there's a "Why did you pick that rating?" text entry box. I would think that bugs reported there would get filed.

I believe Android apps generally rely on the system-level spelling checker and predictive text function (AKA autocorrect; AKA auto-corrupt ). The link that @gazumped provided is somewhat out of date. On my Samsung Android 9 phone, in Settings I have to go down to "General management" and tap that to get to "Language and input"; and then from there I have to select the on-screen keyboard that I use, and then check its spelling/predictive text settings. (It may be different in Android 910.) The advantage of this is that if you add a word to the spelling dictionary when writing an email, that word will also be available (using the same keyboard) in Evernote.

Some posts earlier suggested updating to the latest (non-beta) version of the Evernote app, in case you haven't yet.

And I evidently never get that, because I don't remember ever having to deal with it. Might be browser specific? I use Opera. FWIW, below are screenshots from a simplified article clip of the top of this thread. Apart from the images, text itself wraps properly.

Same to you! Hope you get this sorted out.

Hello, and welcome to the forums. We're other users here, and would not be able to fix this. Evernote staff do sometimes look in, but this is basically user-to-user support. It looks like you're using the beta version of the Web editor. What happens if you switch to the older version of the Web client (click your account name at top left and select that from the menu)? There have been other reports of notes duplicating in the beta, though not recently. You can search for them in the Web editor forum: https://discussion.evernote.com/forum/235-web-client/. Some of the information there might be helpful.

FWIW, I confirmed the problem myself, selecting some of the descriptive text below a YouTube video and pasting it into a new Evernote note, and finding that the line breaks are indeed missing. I use a clipboard manager called ClipCache, and it shows two forms of this clip on the clipboard: HTML (no line breaks, a beige-ish background); and Text (just the words, but with the line breaks). I presume that's why Google Docs' "Paste as plain text," or pasting into a plain-text editor, gets the line breaks. I also tried pasting into Word, using all 3 options: Keep Source Formatting gives the same result as in Evernote; Merge Formatting removes the font, font size, and background color, but has no line breaks; Keep Text Only pastes the text with line breaks. What I (with very little knowledge of what's going on in the background) take away from this is that in Evernote, Ctrl+V pastes HTML as HTML; Ctrl+Shift+V (Paste and Match Style) strips out things like font, size, and background color, but doesn't add line breaks (like Word's Merge Formatting). YouTube is somehow producing HTML that it knows how to present as including line breaks, but that simply pasting the HTML into other programs can't render in that way.

Though it would be amazing if Google changed something in YouTube, don't you think Evernote should be the company that fixes a problem that appears entirely specific to Evernote's software? But in the beginning (of this thread) there was: Evernote definitely should fix this. IMHO, they definitely should not drop everything and fix it. The "feature as essential as copy/paste" is working, on the whole; it's not working in this specific instance. If this were making Evernote unusable for millions of users, or for thousands of users all the time every day, it should go to the head of the line. If it's not that widespread an issue, then that I think (however hard or easy the bug may be to fix) also leads to your final conclusion: get the new editor out ASAP, which I assume is what they're working on.

Glad to help, Chris.

See this post from Evernote security regarding this issue:

I clip using the Simplified Article setting fairly often, and I don't have this problem, which makes me suspect that it may be specific to a particular Website or browser. @aurora446, are you able to test whether other sites or other browsers work better? If not, another option is to edit the clipped page in the Web beta editor (https://www.evernote.com/client/web). It has good tools for editing Web content. See my post here:
