My apologies if this post should be placed elsewhere or if there is an active discussion /announcement that I missed (I did try to find one).

I'm interested in whether or not EN management intends to provide a public follow-up to the service outage that occurred yesterday.

I noted all the Premium users who were commenting in the tracking thread for the issue. These paying customer - include yours truly - essentially lost the application yesterday along with all of their stored objects for the duration of the outage. Some of these customer were dependent on the application to earn a living. And while, I'm not really interested in the back room issues that caused this specific outage, I am deeply concerned that this has exposed a critical flaw in the 10x architecture as it stands today. To organize the application so that the data store and the base code are local to the user, but migrate a critical function (search) to a remote data center with ZERO local fallback is an unacceptable / fatal application design issue, IMO.

Fortunately, my business and my well-being are not dependent on EN. And given what I experienced yesterday, there is no way in hell I would allow that to become the case currently.

Curious to find out what the EN organization has to say.

Instructions for installing legacy Mac/Win clients. Just did this and am able to access my notes.

Here's a quick hack that *appears* to get the search function working for the Mac desktop app: go to offline mode.  I tried that and was able to find objects via search.

YMMV, obviously.

Impacted. Search is FUBAR'ed and I'm dead in the water.

In order to load files into Evernote, I often use the "Open With" function on my Mac and then select Evernote.  After upgrading to 10x, this function is taking an inordinate amount of time.  For example: with Evernote loaded and open, it took over 60 seconds for the new note to be created/displayed once I clicked on a PDF and selected Open With Evernote.

I'm currently using Evernote for Mac v10.5.7.

Please advise.
