The new Evernote for Mac no longer supports Classic Note links, only note links. Although classic note links are not supported anymore, an update coming soon will ensure that note links can behave like classic note links as well.  This means that regular note links will open notes in Evernote when clicked externally in another app. 

Does the section I've bolded also mean that Evernote "note links" in v10 will stay within v10 instead of opening web browsers?
I have numerous IFTTT applets generating notes during the day, and they have links to notes - Legacy opens them within Legacy app... where-as v10 forces a browser to open to Evernote Web.   Any timeline on this particular fix?

We are working on this issue and should fix this soon. Thank you all for your patience. 

I maybe forgot to post a video update I did recently - but I found it working just fine with Apple Scribble mode on or off.
However, the main bug I found was it taking too long to save files - it seems like we have infinite 'paper' and although that idea is nice, I'm guessing it is generating far too large of file sizes - I waited SEVEN minutes for a simple sketch note to save and then gave up and aborted it.

But, can we restore from that local database copy?

Definitely not - all the attachments are kept separately in individual files from what I've seen playing around in the folder structure this morning .

Am I getting this right - there is no local database file to backup anymore? Everything is cloud-based?  My internet service cannot be updated (country bumpkin) and I only have 4-5 MB up and 1 down.  It is why I can't use cloud-based backup services, and is an important reason I started using Evernote. I'm screwed, right?

You're OK for now.. There is a local sql database and attachment folder BUT if you have limited bandwidth , it is going to download EVERYTHING to get fully synced up.

I've just gone offline to see what it's like. I had no issues with search, saved searches, tags (if selected from the tag sidebar) adding tags to notes etc etc.

 

I'm going to have to do a new video to update from my last one about 'offline mode' ... I just tried this again - confirmed my v10 Evernote folder is rolling in at 36GB and that is pretty much the same as the Legacy edition.     I pulled the plug on my hardwire connection and can confirm throughout a random selection of notes from recent through to a couple of years old all loaded up just fine.  I was still getting broken thumbnails in my snippet view, but that's minor - the note contents (including attachments) appeared to be working.

Maybe 2 days wasn't enough for Evernote to download everything in my  36gb database.

That initial load of meta data can also make it look like the notes are unavailable if you go offline during this initial sync. I'd be interested if you're still running into an offline issue after the notes have loaded. Working offline is an important part of the experience.

I really question any usable functionality of Evernote while offline at present.   Maybe if you're creating a note,    but searching and using tags and saved searches was useless for me. evernote had 2 days to build it's cache.

Definitely if we could specify notebooks to be available offline like on mobile, or even if we new a notebook would cache the latest 100 notes (as example number) we would be in a much better position than currently where we know nothing specific and offline is totally hit or miss.

10.0.4 sketch notes have drastically improved... I even had Apple Scribble mode turned on and experience no missing input!

HOWEVER.... due to what appears to be "infinite paper size" - I'm seeing problems saving sketch notes.   I waited on one for SEVEN MINUTES before forcing Evernote closed and just starting over.   The next one I tried was much smaller, but I got tired of waiting after TWO MINUTES.  

Might need to reconsider infinite paper size or figure out some other way of dealing with this. Seven minutes or more to save a relatively simple sketch is completely unacceptable!

When I used version 10 it seemed like my notes were stored on line (hence slow) rather than the old model of syncing to my computer. 

Can someone confirm how this works under version 10. 

I've got a video up that shows how Evernote 10 handles being offline (spoiler - it doesn't).

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A3r1ryU5Ffo

FYI - I saw this same behavior again this morning this time when notes were generated from iOS. 

I entered several notes into Evernote for iOS last night while brainstorming in bed... this morning, the notes do not exist in the Windows Evernote v10.   I can see them in my 'created today and created yesterday searches' as being in my inbox - BUT they aren't in my inbox.

I fully exited out of Evernote v10 and restarted it - the notes magically appeared in the inbox.

Please fix - ASAP!

I see syncing 'freeze ups' still exist.   I opened Evernote 10.04 on iPhone 11 Pro this morning and didn't pay attention to if it last synced up or not.

proceeded to type up 2 separate notes into my inbox.

jump back to inbox.  not there!

realize the sync freeze up occurred, force closed Evernote and restarted.  of course, notes not there.  

THIS IS DATA LOSS!
Please fix - you've left a good many users with Evernote in an unusable state at this point in time!

Here's a strange one...

Note created on computer A in my inbox notebook  - I have in my video example an image sketch, but have also tested it with basic text notes.
Jump to computer B - the note(s) DO NOT show in my inbox - BUT they do show in my 'created today' search - AND they show as being in my inbox.    BUT they aren't in my inbox with a regular scroll through the notes of that notebook.
Using my created today search, if I then give those notes a title, they now show up in my computer B inbox notebook.

Please fix ASAP - to me this is a missing data problem... someone could create notes on one system and not have them show on another system unless you're diligent about finding those notes and updating them so they show on the second system.

FWIW, after the notes were created on computer A, I loaded Evernote iOS (v10) and the notes showed in the inbox there.  I did NOT access the notes on iOS in case it messed up trying to replicate the issue above.

Excuse my lack of artistic talent with my sketch example. 

as per the subject. 
When fixed, a bonus would be to let us select the date format to be used in options!

Created a note on device 2 - using Evernote 10 for Windows.  It saved from what I could tell.

A couple hours later on device 1, I didn't see the note.   Ran a search for notes created today and it shows up - and shows up as being in my inbox.  Click on my inbox.  Note isn't anywhere to be seen.

Re-run my search - verify that yes, the note says it is in my inbox.   Double check the inbox notebook directly.  No, it's not there!

Re-run the search - change the note title (it was untitled previously).

Check the inbox (my default notebook).

Finally, the note is now there (listed).

I'll try to post a video on this behavior a bit later and will see if I can duplicate the problem. 

Also keep in mind color coding tags doesn't change a search or the requirements of a search.  I can have a tag "importantstuff" that is red in color - and then search for the tag "importantstuff" instead of dealing with emoji coded tags for "importantstuff" instead - and then dealing with search complexities.    That all being said - I do have a few tags with emoji's -- but again, simple tags that can be coded independently (with the colors) was very nice to have.

Another missing feature -- I have notes shared to me, but I can't duplicate or copy those notes into my own notebook(s).  The menu option is there, but greyed out.  

Work around: 

- export the note as an ENEX.
- import the ENEX  (BUT evernote creates a new notebook in the process). 
- move the note where you want/need it 
- delete the now empty notebook.

How about the speed and the responsiveness? It is super slow for me that I cannot use it unfortunately.

For example, I just clicked a note and it took 10-15 seconds if not longer to display that note. But more importantly, when I try to edit the note, it takes very long to even "ENTER" to process. I hit enter, and the cursor blinks for a while then goes down. Then I start typing, words start to appear with a very noticeable delay.

For example, I type "TESTING" I would finish typing the word, then wait the word appears!

Is this just me? Did anybody notice any slowdown?

It's horrible for me... improved after the first install, but "day 2" - despite being improved - is still sluggish.

I've done a 'day 2' video here showing casing a few bugs and problems.  https://youtu.be/A3r1ryU5Ffo

Noticed this on the beta and submitted feedback on it - but for some reason it is still a problem in the public release.

It is 8:15pm where I am currently.  My "activity today" shows one note that actually says it was created at 8:08pm.
My search is: created:day -tag:library-pocket 
and that normally shows me all my notes from today.

Where is "created:day" getting its date and time information from?  Certainly note the note information. 

Please fix.

I had a hard time finding the import folders functionality in Evernote 10.  Did I overlook it or this Evernote?

 

It’s gone.  For now anyway.  I certainly hope it returns very very soon!

I used color tags - not a lot, but for specific certain groups together in my shortcuts list.  Any chance of bringing these back?  If not, how about letting us create a shortcut 'divider' bar? Or better yet, shortcut "stacks"?

I can't seem to scroll wide content. -tables anyway - horizontally on my touch screen device. I've tried finger swipe and precision input with a pen. No go either way.

Disregard ... I guess instead of sliding the horizontal scroll bar, you have to tap it now. A bit odd I suppose , but I'll eventually get used to it.

@Shane D. can you provide a ballpark time frame for how long the Windows and Mac legacy versions will still be supported?

FYI - for anyone wanting to make sure they keep a copy of the 'legacy' version for re-installation - jump to the forums here and download 6.25.1.9091 - save a copy to your computer/cloud/etc., just in case it disappears from the forums!

Printing bug/quirk:    print output is different if you're in dark mode or in light mode.  Black text on white paper if you're in light mode, but grey text on white paper if you're in dark mode.  Colors (text links anyway) change from blue to green as well and highlighters result in different outputs (ie black text highlighted vs white text highlighted).

This might be a design feature I suppose - but I'd rather not switch from dark mode to light mode, just to print something "properly" (or at least what I'd call properly).

Personally I cannot believe they have released this, I was a preview and beta tester and the number of issues raised should have been a good indication of how this was not ready for general release. There are so many missing features and no word on whether they will ever re-appear and things still not working, pretty disappointed to be honest - seems like most of the feedback was ignored.

It was a pretty fancy video they made for the “new“ Evernote though... It's unfortunate that they didn't create a "real life" video on the release instead.
