  1. I don't get the problem so much on the desktop version (Mac) but sometimes (like now) it happens for days on end, multiple times a day (even if I'm not using Evernote simultaneously on another device). Even when I bin the versions I don't want, Evernote still flags them up as alternate versions - more than 24 hours after I've binned the notes, so this isn't due to a syncing delay. On the iOS app, sync conflicts have been happening as long as I've used Evernote, which is years. I avoid creating or editing notes on my iPhone whenever possible because I end up with millions of alternate versions. If I absolutely have to do something on my iPhone I'll manually sync every single time I've made a change. And before I do the manual sync, I'll copy the changes I've made, because sometimes the app freezes when I try to sync. (A side benefit of copying the changes before syncing is that it somehow seems to minimise how often the app freezes.) Overall a very laborious process.
  2. I have been experiencing a similar issue today, which must be related to the update I installed yesterday. I am using the desktop version, not web client, and the content that's being deleted isn't checkboxes (I haven't used any checkboxes today) - it's completely random content, like screenshots or parts of sentences. It's happened on a few different notes. I've largely been able to reconstruct what I was doing via the note history but in some cases the latest version hadn't yet saved so I lost my work.
  3. Thanks for posting. The issue you have with the cursor jumping below a newly created bullet has actually also been happening to me, for at least a year now. It definitely sounds like it’s a bug. I’ve noticed that the cursor only starts jumping around when I’ve been typing for a fairly long time in the same note. If I quit Evernote and log back in, that solves the problem. It’ll happen again of course, but at least I can get some work done. Have gotten used to it by now!
  4. This has also been a longstanding issue for me. I have liaised with Evernote Support about it in the past, most recently in late 2019, and it didn't seem like it was a known issue to them. They couldn't troubleshoot it without me sending over a log file, which I didn't want to for security reasons, so we just left it. It's only now, reading comments in this forum, that I realise it must be a bug - incredible that Evernote wasn't aware of it. My own solution was to completely reorganise my notes so that each file occupies one note, and there are no attachments. It's taken months, on and off, and my stack & notebook structure has had to change. Pretty drastic, but it was either that or switch to another app, which I just couldn't face, given how much content I have. I actually prefer the system I have now, but it was still a long and frustrating journey dealing with this problem.
  5. Sorry, I completely forgot to include this. Mac 10.13.6
  6. Over the past year, I've noticed a couple of strange things happening to the cursor when I type in a note. One is that when I want to enclose a word in quotation marks (I mainly use single quotation marks so I've only noticed the issue with that), the first letter of the word I start typing does not appear. Instead the cursor 'jumps' to the position of the second letter (or maybe the first letter just doesn't register). So e.g. 'jump' becomes ' ump'. It doesn't matter how much I try to make sure that I'm really hitting that first letter, this happens about about 80% of the time. i use single quotation marks a fair bit so it's really getting annoying. (I've contacted Evernote Support about this but in order to assist me they require me to send an activity log, which I understand, from having asked Support specifically about it, makes accessible not only your notes within a particular Note, but all Notes in all Notebooks. This is a bit of a concern for me from a security and privacy aspect so I chose not to go down that route). Not sure if anyone else has this issue and a fix...? The second thing that's been happening relates to those 'lines' you can add in a note to create separate sections. I'm not sure what you call them but they're in the toolbar next to the tickbox. I use these a lot in my notes -- I have a heading, then I insert a line under the heading that goes across the page. Over the past half year or so, about 50% of the time, when I'm typing something in one of those sections, the cursor suddenly jumps to the section heading. There is no trigger whatsoever. Because I touch-type and also type quickly, sometimes a few seconds have gone by before I've realised that the cursor is in the wrong place, then I have to cut and paste what I've written. Hoping someone out there might know of a fix. Just as a general comment, I've used Evernote happily for a few years now but over the past year/18 months I've noticed that coding issues seem to be significantly on the increase. There's a bunch of other issues I've noticed (for example downloaded notes often just don't load when I'm offline) but these two are probably the ones I'd most like to fix. Many thanks in advance!
  7. I link up notes a lot and really wish I could copy and paste links using the mobile app
  8. This thread seems to mostly be about paragraph spacing so maybe not the right place for this comment, but in the last update I believe (or maybe the one before) I found that the line spacing between 'tickbox' style bullets had increased. I used tickbox bullets a lot, so my notes have all become much longer as a result. I have no idea why, among so many other more urgent/useful fixes that Evernote could have focused on, they would choose to make changes to this. I haven't noticed any changes to normal line spacing, so it wouldn't seem to be an attempt to address user feedback in that area. Just one of the increasing number of frustrating issues I've had with Evernote...
