On the Mac, the App Store just announced an update to Web Clipper, 7.12.7. There is no indication this crash is fixed however. I am currently on 7.12.3.60.

This just started happening to me on Chrome/MacOS Catalina 10.15.5. Very annoying, every page requires a reload then the clip works. I am referring to just ordinary web pages.

Yes, it is the plug in. I did the full uninstall/reinstall process several times, and each time eventually the crashes came back. Only when I got rid of the plugin per the instructions on this thread, has the problem gone away and stayed away for a long time.

There are a lot of them - I said in my OP it appears to be about 518MB in total content in the page...

Thanks @gazumped for your reply. I ended up just clipping the first paragraph or so of the article text only, and the URL. That sufficed. It's not a big deal, except I wasted about an hour, maybe a little more, trying to figure out what was wrong - with Clipper, my computer, my Evernote account. It would really be great if the error was correct, then it would have been obvious what was wrong. It really churned and gave a lot of errors in the log file, so there is probably room to make this smarter in an error condition. I realize they don't do a whole lot with Clipper though, that may never ha

I am trying to use Web Clipper to clip a web page of Disney pictures, at https://wdwnt.com/2020/05/photos-survey-a-fully-empty-park-with-stunning-new-aerial-images-of-magic-kingdom/ This failure scenario is the same whether clipping as Article or Simplified Article. The save goes very fast as usual, but the Sync goes very slow - maybe 1% every 3-5 seconds. It also is chewing up CPU big time, averaging 100% - 105% of CPU for the Web Clipper process (it is a multi CPU Mac.) Normally sync is just about instantaneous on my computer and internet (I verified internet connection is fine vi

I just came here to report the same thing. Mac Catalina 10.15.4, Safari browser.

@marianco I just tried this solution, to delete the EvernoteSpotlight.appex file. I am hopeful this takes care of the problem, as you said the Evernote solution is not permanent. It had been working fine for say the last 7-8 weeks, now the last two days I have gotten about 10 crashes again. One point - you said this provides ability to Clip Web Content to Evernote - After I deleted the .appex file, I tried using Web Clipper in Safari on a Mac and it works! Is it still in memory or something? I'll try closing and reopening Safari and see what I find. EDIT: Just closed and reope

Well, it's back for me AGAIN. It started on Jan 22. I checked, there has been no Evernote app update, so that kills my theory it was related to upgrading the app. On the 22nd, it crashed 7 times around 8:58 AM, and the 23rd it crashed 12 times around 8:58 - 8:59 AM. It sounds like it might be tied to something happening around 9 AM? PLEASE EVERNOTE WHY CAN'T YOU FIX THIS?

@PinkElephant the fact remains the program crashes for quite a number of people, and EN has acknowledged the problem for a long time, and has yet to fix it. I appreciate your comments, but at some point people who keep claiming "the problem doesn't happen to me" are just not helpful.

I am not running the one on the App Store, at least initially. I downloaded the one from the Evernote site, every time, as I did today. The problem is, the updates through the App Store happen automatically. I guess instead of putting a good version on the App Store Evernote wants me to turn off all automatic updates on my Mac? I won't do that - why compromise the rest of my computer because Evernote won't fix this stupid bug and updates cause crashes? No wonder people are leaving for other solutions. I won't compromise the rest of my computer. Like others, I am very close to dumping Ever

For me, the steps to uninstall completely and reinstall work UNTIL an update comes. I have not had any crashes for weeks, an Update came through the Apple store on my Mac, and now in the last 3 days I have gotten about 10 crashes a day. I am in the process of doing the full uninstall with AppCleaner and reinstall, I am sure it will be fine until the next update Come on Evernote, fix this!!!!!

Thanks for the tip, no shots fired. I would like to see a better search tool though. With these kinds of holes it’s hardly robust and tags are not a dolution every time.

The more fundamental question is, how does one search on AT&T? Search is a pretty crucial function in Evernote, while I recognize it doesn't work now it and other examples need to be addressed.

Here's a sample from a notebook, note the search in the top right and all the results that show are wrong. This is Evernote/Mac.
