I cannot find information re: not showing deleted tasks. How is this done?

Do you mean completed tasks?  From the three dot menu on the task screen, there are different view options.

Your notes are still available but you revert to the restrictions of the free plan.

Federico mentioned somewhere that this was being worked on.  That was a few months back, but now that Rent is mostly done I’m hoping we will see this soon.

i don’t know about it being critical but for anyone that does a lot of web clipping, it will be greatly appreciated.

We'll see when I renew in November if I can get one of those offers again.

I did see that some other existing users were offered the discount, but I never was able to find a way myself.  Let us know if it works out for you again.  I have no objections to paying less.

Apple does AI mainly on device, and what goes to the servers is anonymized and processed by Apple themselves, not in a shady startup always hungry for training data.

This makes a huge difference for somebody like me who is professionally handling customer relevant data, under GDRP conditions.

Yes, that makes a huge difference to me as well as someone suspicious of AI in general.

Instead of UI chichi I am waiting for iCal integration.

There is nothing wrong with wanting both 🙂.  Hiding unused content in the sidebar does seem to generate some discussion here and is pretty low-hanging fruit for the programmers to add.  It is not high on my list, but I'll use it when it'simplemented.

With all the new Apple AI functions that will roll out in the next months

The new enhancements to Notes is making that a compelling competitor for those on the Apple platform.

I'm curious to see if their new password app will be a reasonable replacement to 1Password.  I wouldn't mind dropping another subscription.

Same as you tasks. I used to use Todoist but moved everything into EN around a year ago and never looked back. 

Saved a subscription as well.

Exactly my situation as well.  We struggled with some tasks glitches as they were working through Rent, but it seems to have settled now, and I find recurring tasks very useful.

I didn’t think I would find it useful, but seeing tasks on the calendar view is helpful.

I’m still searching for a use case for Files though … 🙂

So it you don't renew your subscription and let it lapse, it'll drop to free. If you poke around the app, you'll very quickly be offered a 40% discount for Personal to resubscribe. It's insanely easy to keep renewing at 40% off every year if you know what to do.

Could be, but I tried exactly that a couple of times and was never offered a discount.  Maybe just my bad luck.

As has been discussed previously, we could really use a separate note updated variable that we can sort on (based on note content change only) that is independent from the one that the system uses to maintain sync status.  Their current design basically makes sorting on date updated useless.

I think it's just better to pay for Personal and try to milk the 40% off targeted discounts they seem to constantly offer each year.

I think those discounts only target new customers, not existing ones.  At least I’ve not noticed one for existing  customers.

i dropped to personal a while back as well and am not missing any of the professional benefits. AI won’t get me to move unless it is really compelling AND done entirely in-house without third party involvement.

That's why I suggested a win-win option: Add a large number of basic subscribers for 50.00, and charge much more for the bells and whistles.

The trade off here is how many users paying the $130 rate would then decide that they can get by with the $50 plan?  So there would be some loss of revenue to balance against additional lower price subscribers.  They tried that years ago with the Plus plan and it was a failure.  That said, there are enough new features now where drawing a line between a basic plan and a professional plan may make sense trying again.

Yes, but there's almost nobody here, relatively speaking - here the echo?  😀

Well, if they engaged here, then maybe there would be more participation.  Reddit and X are two of the last places I want to spent my time 😀.

What continues to surprise me is the succession of users who come here to educate us as to the ease of switching to their own preferred supplier,  since they clearly feel that we're too dim or too slow to realise we could move,  and what wonderful alternative applications are out there.

I don’t view it that way, at least for most of the responses.  I think in general, folks are just trying to inform Evernote on why they are leaving and what they are moving to.  I would think that Evernote would be interested in why users are leaving and what competition they are moving to.  Unfortunately, as we know, Evernote doesn’t engage here, and may not even be reading posts, so if users really want to give their farewell reasons to Evernote, then feedback@evernote.com is their best bet.

It's improving, they are active on r/Evernote now replying directly to users. They also respond to users directly on Twitter/X

Yet they don’t engage with users on their own forum…

Only thing that happens is that a picture file is somehow badly attached

I, fortunately, haven’t seen that one yet 🤞

I will typically update my iPad first.  If all is well for a couple of days, I’ll then update the phone.

They said it's fixed which they have in 10.104.2 Mobile and running on IOS and Andriod!

However I've just download 10.105.1 and Offline in Settings is not showing me any offline notes. So it's stuffed again.

That is not my experience.  With version 10.104, I was in the process of downloading all my notes to my iPhone.  It was about 1/2 way completed.  I upgraded to 105 and the download has continued from where it left off and is now almost done.  It doesn't appear that I lost any of the earlier offline notes with the upgrade.

It happens on the website, too. 

I don't need that note but I wonder what else is lost

Is the note actually missing or is it the link to the note that is broken?  Can you find the note if you search for the note title instead of using the link?  If the note is missing, is this a recent note or one that you haven't used in a while?  I ask because over the past year, Evernote has made some major changes to their backend software and it was not without problems.  Others have reported missing data in the past but I haven't noticed any recent posts.

Desktop Win 11 all up to date.

Ok, so if I understand correctly, the "you don't have access" message is seen when trying to click on links to other notes, is that correct?

We still need an answer to my other question:

Can you access the note when logged into Evernote using the web browser?

If the problem exists when using Evernote via your web browser then I'm out of ideas and, unless others have any ideas, it is support ticket time, unfortunately.

If it works correctly from your web browser then that points to a problem with your Windows installation.  I have three ideas here, from easiest to hardest:

1. As PE mentioned, sign out, keeping your backup, and then sign back in.  Maybe that will be enough.  If not,

2. sign out and when it asks you to keep the local backup, select the remove my Evernote data option.

Sign back in and it will rebuild your Windows database.   Depending on the size of your database it could take a while to completely rebuild it, but it should be useable fairly soon.

3. If neither of those works, then it is time for the nuclear option.  Uninstall using Revo.  A general uninstall likely will not work, you need to use Revo.  Then reinstall.

Good luck.

Coming here is a last resort but I am getting the message "you don't have access to this note" again.

Welcome back to the den of snakes.

Which desktop/mobile device are you trying to access the note from?  Can you access the note when logged into Evernote using the web browser?

My guess is fkingup.  

I had to google semprini so I've received my dose of knowledge for the day, thank you @Bill Myers

On a related subject I noticed that one of the "7 words you can't say on TV" made it into a forum post.  I was surprised it got past the net nanny controls.

Comments like that are not at all constructive

You posted on a 6 month old thread with a comment that had nothing to do with the thread subject.  In fairness, neither was yours.  I honestly wondered why you bothered posting.

It seems the forum is occupied by a few fanboys and forum addicts,

I'm a fanboy because I called your post a rant?  Interesting.  If not a rant, then what was it?  You have been around here long enough to know this is a user's group.  If you have a complaint, the best chance that it will at least get read by an employee is to send your comments to feedback@evernote.com, and if you have a question, there are folks here who will usually do their best to try and help.

Those of us who come here to comment occasionally are ignored by the developers and our comments are didmissed by the forum denizens.

So why are you bothering?

Still not perfect but it seems like they are getting their footing slowly. Have you noticed the same?

I can't say that I have.  The recent no note found problem with tasks rendered tasks unusable for me on mobile devices for a few days.  It is now fixed but these types of problems should not have been missed.  It seems like the developers working on problems, work to fix the problem but then do no QA to see if their latest code breaks anything else.
