  1. Yeah, as far as I can see, EN stores against UTC. Which makes sense, to have an absolute point in time. But apparently Legacy has logic built in which says "let's transpose this all to this timezone", and for whatever reason EN10 does not. Now comes the scary part... Is that one of those "only 2% of the users need this, and for those we have decided they actually don't" feature changes EN is infamous for, or is it an oversight...
  2. Yeah, @Piotas I know. Using Legacy still for the real work. Just testing EN10, see what works how. My experience is one better get used to it. Better to work with what is than what is wished for. No real alternative for Evernote at my scale. Nimbus is promising but doesn't have search down at 40,000 notes
  3. Yup -- some notes from the previous day show up on the next day. Also see it happening for manually created notes, so it's not limited to IFTTT. The cutoff point is 7 PM EST. Then it shows in the created search for yesterday; after that time, it shows up as today
  4. 9:07 PM for the two notes of the 22nd that don't show. 8:47 PM for the two notes on the 21st that show in the results for the 22nd instead. Each created via an IFTTT applet that pulls from a feed. The timestamps match when those notes should have come in. When I travelled in different time zones, what you see is that the timestamp actually changes depending on where you are. As these timestamps match when they should have been created, I don't think it's a timezone issue
  5. Good ideas! Filter gives same results: 18 notes with 2 missing from the 22nd but 2 from the 21st added. created:20201122 shows all notes from the 22nd, but again adds those 2 notes from the 21st In theory it could be a timezone issue _but_ the note's timestamp is correct
  6. Ah yes, you too. Seems for some strange reason really have to do with the account size. Very strange. If you keep Shortcuts open, you can actually see the tagged notes appear in Recent Notes. And ... it.... goes.... slowwwww.... It's not consistent either. When I remove tag/add tag to the same set of notes, time can go down to "just" 40 seconds
  7. Good idea, to check the web version. Yup, there too. Legacy has it perfectly normal. In both cases they are IFTTT created notes, but in both cases the notes were added and synced at the right day. And the timestamp they have *is* for the right day. Just doesn't show up like that.
  8. created:day-1 -created:day (a "yesterday" search) misses 2 notes created via IFTTT that day. When I expand the search to day-2, it does show them. The created date/time on the note is yesterday, 9:07 PM. Meanwhile the yesterday search itself does include 2 such similar notes, now from the day before. Evernote Legacy search shows results as expected: with each note appearing within the correct "created" search
  9. On my primary account I have close to 40,000 notes. Selecting up to 20 notes which I known are on the local machine, applying a tag to the multi-selection takes 3-4 minutes on an Intel i7, 32 GB RAM machine. Switching to my secondary, test account, where I have 300 notes, doing the same thing takes only 8 seconds. Before trying to figure out more, I'd love to know if anyone else has this issue; if it's related to the overall size of the account
  10. @Dave-in-Decatur how do you decide when to upgrade? Do you test new versions sometimes or just based on feedback?
  11. I'm on Windows 10. When I right-click a PDF I get a context menu with annotate options:
  12. I'm a fan of this and have long used saved searches for it, going back years and years. Recently I've switched to using https://filterize.net/ (freemium), a service that automates a lot of tag/note actions. Based on the creation date of the note I have it add yyyy, month name, and day number tags to all notes. As a result, if I want to find all notes from this day in history I can do a search: tag:january tag:11 and there they are
  13. Sort of my thinking too. Over the years I've learned you usually are better off working around the limitations of a program than waiting for it to change. There are some exceptions. Some companies, some products, are tremendously responsive to user requests. Dynalist and Everdo come to mind. Others, like Evernote, have a history of not being so responsive. Once you know that, that's it; you either accept it the way it is or you move on to something else. But it's good to try; to see if asking helps. Many people on the forum are new(er) so they don't know Evernote has a very clear product vision which they follow before going back and forth here with feature requests.
  14. Upvoted. Didn't know this bug went back so long in time already. As a workaround when I really need the images, I go back and use Snagit to screen clip the image and paste it where it should.
  15. Get the program on iTunes Go to your iPad Click to download Will prompt to download the most recent compatible version instead
  16. Dunno, but over the years I've learned to live with software limitations instead of holding out for the perfect match of features to arise. If I require 5 features, one product will have 4 of them , another another 5, but neither of them all 5. So for Evernote I use tags, nested tags, and ParentName.ChildName notation where needed. Given that Evernote is how it is, that works better for me too because notebook information is not exported in ENEX files whereas tag information is exported in ENEX files. So, using this workaround I have nesting, with the flexibility of tags, and all export information I would want.
  17. As possible workarounds until then: Use the Reminder function. This "pins" items at the top of the note lists. Set the creation date (desktop only) into the future → sort notes by date created
  18. Adding my 2 cents... Dynalist (highly recommended!) has Markdown support and formatted view. Now there you can see the opposite discussion going on; people requesting a WYSIWYG editor instead. The reason is that how Markdown looks is different from what it represents. That means that when you click into a note, the editor has to switch back to showing the Markdown view. All of a sudden the place where you clicked to make an edit, is no longer the correct place: all formatting is expanded, URLs are expanded, etc. That's why many Markdown editors have an editing pane and a preview pane. So then we have people who want MD and a large portion of users who just want WYSIWYG. So you have to add a new setting because you don't want to confuse the majority of users who want to see bold as bold and not as **bold** So it's not a trivial coding job. To keep in mind too , in my idea, is that the beauty of Markdown is that you can write it anywhere. You don't need a program to "support" Markdown. You can type in your favorite Markdown dialect, paste the note in whatever MD tool you use, and there it is. MD is portable because it is software-independent. Nothing prevents us from typing in MD in Evernote.
  19. I often use this Chrome extension which saves a page including its resources in a more or less standard HTML file. Makes for a great true-copy of a page
