  1. Creative workaround, but means I have to open each note twice, and I'm not sure that makes it simpler. They will all be at the top, but I still have to keep track of which I've edited and which I havent't. Oh, I'd have to pen the notes a third time to remove the tags. I like the way your're thinking but this seems to something Evernote may have to addfress.
  2. I'm sure I'm not the only one who scans or enters many notes and comes back to them later to edit the title and place them in the right notebook. I will go through my inbox to relabel and move notes at least once a week. I typically am working down the list. But once I rename the note, I have moved with the note to a new place. I have to scroll back and find my place to continue with the next one. Even worse is if I move the note, I'm not even in the same notebook. Perhaps a toggle that could be used for editing a list of notes. It could say, "continue with list" or "move with note."
  3. I suspect I am not the only one to save notes and come back to re-name them and move them later. In fact, it's more efficient in general to repeat one step many times instead of going through the entire process, especially as one can select multiple notes and move them. There may be other ways, but there are lots of extra keystrokes here, especially if you have many notebooks. When one is moving notes, you end up in the new notebook. You have to go back to the old notebook and scroll down to where you were in the list. Having the option to stay in the "from" location, with the notes in the same order, and your cursor ready for the next note, can save 5-12 keystrokes (depending on how many notes in the from and how many notebooks/where the "to" is in the sort. And one can use the move again command. I'm not sure if I'm making myself clear. Please let me know if what I say is understandable/makes sense. If I'm correct, how would I suggest this as a feature? I don't want to suggest a feature if I'm overlooking how it can be done now, or if I'm the only one to save notes without naming them or putting them in the right notebook as I save them.
  4. That is one option. But if I want to see all the notes that are imported from scannable or unnamed notes, I want to use the alpha sort. And what about if am moving documents.....I go with the note to the new notebook.
  5. I don't have that sort....I have create date, edit date, and alpha. Each can be done two ways. Am I looking in the wrong place? A sordid error?
  6. I frequently do "batch work," where I create notes and come back later to name and move them. I may scroll through my inbox, changing all the unnamed notes. Once I've renamed it, I move with the note to the new location. If I name an unnamed note "george," I will be in the g's (if alpha sorted.). I now have to scroll down to the unnamed. Is there a way that I can save all that scrolling time? If I move the document I also have to get back to the inbox? I frequently will go through a notebook and move items in the wrong place.....it takes a while to find where I was. Or, is there a better name when I want to scan a notebook moving many items or renaming many?
  7. Thanks but I see nothing in the menus that identifies a notebook page. But now Evernote seems to have frozen.
  8. One of the reasons I switched to mac was that programs operated in a standard way....well most. I have to search the interjet for "Now do I xxx on Evernote for Mac" almost every other day. These aer for simple things. And even when I find them, the answer is so weird I can't remember them. There is no logic, I can drag and drop a file everywhere. Then I want to move a notebook. I try everything on the toolbar, right clicks and look all over. Noting works. a 2 second task now becomes a research project. I see put it in Stack view. There are noi commands for that. Did they TRY to make this difficult? I read the instructions for putting in stack mode. Once again I have no idea where these magic buttons or commands are. Is these commands under my sofa? Every time I need to do this, it's a one hour project. Can someone have mercy? It sure isn't Evernote..
  9. My workaround has been to select all in a note, copy to textedit (or notepad for windows), do my search and replace there, select all and copy in that app and then paste back in evernote. It's fairly quick, though I think unnecessary.
  10. I'm wondering if we might get S&R after driving my horse and buggy down to watch that newfangled iron horse.
