  1. I'll have to check when the issue occurs again; guess I'll try to record it then. However, seems to be a bug in any case and I shall open a ticket.
  2. Sometimes I cannot assign tags to notes, nothing seems to help except restarting Evernote Mac Desktop app. Did somebody else experience this? I have the note open in the normal view and click on the list of tags assigned to the note (bottom of the note) and start typing the first letters of an existing tag, but no list appears. Also I can enter any tag (existing or not), but it is not saved; neither by clicking on it, hitting enter, nor changing the note. Only restarting the app helps.
  3. Is it this option? If yes, one should tell them support that it happens without this option enabled too.
  4. What is that? I think every Mac has iCloud, isn't it build into the OS? And why would it pop up now?
  5. Of course, but it is coming back repeatedly. I clicked OK more than once.
  6. Hi, has anybody a solution for that? I cannot see how more than 100GB free space qualifies for "Almost out of storage space" warning. The answer marked as solution is not a solution. EDIT: Created a support ticket waiting for response.
  7. Quite dramatic. You might be right for some, but not for me 😀 my stuff runs on modern hardware, all virtualized. Backups in more than one location go back min a year. Critical stuff is held even offline. Server dies, no problem. Back up in no time. I could have gone back one day per snapshot before EN’s update, but if it automatically updates this would not help. So what you say is only one aspect. The world is not black and white only, and just because there is a new version of anything it is not better per se.
  8. Yeah that is all correct, but what you forget is the effort. It costs money for new software, probably new hardware and in my opinion the costly factor, it costs a lot of effort to migrate everything that is running to a new system. And migrating a running system to a new one is a lot of effort. So if you are spending your time elsewhere there is an easy argument made to delay such migration for quite a long time. And frankly, just because MS says so, there is no real benefit from using Win10 over a well working Win7 system. Sure, updates and security and stuff... but that can be managed. So for my one remaining Win7 it'l run until I took the time to migrate all away from it that it does right now. So long...
  9. I don't expect that Evernote is different, but I expect that there is a decent warning that an update might break stuff. With every decent software I can decide if I want updates or not, but Evernote simply updated and stopped working. And I don't like that they since their famous V10 client remove functionality piece by piece. I am quite certain that I was able to see Excel files properly in Evernote, but now it tells me to buy premium... It's not that I cannot spend the extra buck, but this sneaky way of removing things to get people to buy another subscription is bad style. I would be willing to pay more if they start bringing back a proper native app without that electron *****. If you think about it, that an electron app has to not only be shipped with its own chromium package, but also has to run a complete webbrowser to execute its js code. That is crazy and that is why Evernote runs so poor. If I check the Evernote on my Mac right now, it consumes about 1.7GB for doing nothing but sitting there! That is crazy. That's almost a 16th of my total 32GB and most personal computers have less. And for what? Only for the laziness to deal with code for 3 platforms (Win, Mac, Linux).
  10. Wow, yesterday the automatically updated Evernote broke, installed an older version to work on Win7 only to find today that it also broke the outlook add-in. For years now Evernote constantly removes functionality. Recently I found that I cannot simply see Excel content because now I need to pay more for it. I hate it and I bet soon the pink elephant is telling me I have to accept it all and it is only for the greater good. DARN I am furious
  11. You are right, but I guess you can imagine that there are reasons. And besides, I don’t visit Websites with that machine. No bitcoin either. And an up to date browser helps a lot, regardless of the OS. And if there was an issue, so what, one button restores the VM. For everybody else, v10.56.8 works on Win7. https://cdn1.evernote.com/boron/win/builds/Evernote-10.56.8-win-ddl-ga-4069-8d752afa50-setup.exe You can disable automatic updates of Evernote by modifying config.json located %AppData%\Evernote\config.json Modify the key „forceUpdateOnStart“ to false.
  12. Same problem. And the hint to update the OS is not helpful at all. Apparently there are reasons.
  13. First, thanks for clarifying that this is not Evernote support. Secondly, in recent times I am astonished time after time, how weird one can build an application (be it Evernote client or webapp). Why would a web application download all my notes? That is like login to your email provider's web frontend and it would download all my emails. Are you telling me that Evernote web app loads all my notes onto... where? my browser? I cannot believe this. It would mean that if I open Evernote on my mobile it would suck empty my data plan in no time? Very strange. Anyway, opened a support ticket.
  14. Hi Evernote team, I logged onto the web frontend today to quickly find a note, but after I logged on I had to wait for literally minutes before I could even see newer notes. During this process notes I created month ago kept appearing in the list of notes and then disappeared again. In the end, it came to a halt, but it does not show my recent notes. I sort for "Date updated" or "Date created", but I am not seeing a good week of notes. The notes are there on Mac and Windows clients.
