  1. Thanks for taking the time to explain. I didn't know how Penultimate worked previously. Personally, I'd be fine with a 2-way sync where Penultimate (that is submitted to Evernote platform) confronts the modified-at time and simply replace its own notebook version with the EN one, if that's more recent. However I see that Penultimate is pretty abandoned. I reported (1-2 years ago?) a bug about Penultimate (freshly installed) not allowing to create new notebooks because I already have more than 200 on Evernote side (but there is only the default one on Penultimate side). I see in the Apple Store that Penultimate was updated but apparently my bug report went ignored. Also I tried different features and the app is broken in too many aspects (bug-wise and usability-wise), hence I'm not able to use it even in case the sync would allow non-readonly notes. I've tried Noteshelf yesterday, before giving up and trying Penultimate again. They aren't in a better spot: it crashed the first time I run it. crashes about 20% of the times I use it sync is broken-ish on Noteshelf side it doesn't preserve a local version of notes synced to Evernote (so if I have no internet, there's no way I can modify a note that was available just before closing the app) half of the times it gets stuck while downloading the notes from EN synced notes are broken on Evernote side after a sync I can see the note being created in Evernote app; unfortunately the content is displayed only the first time after being synced. If I come back to it later on, it shows nothing, there no content, apart for a pale blue background and the "View Only" tag. No app restart helped. This happens to ALL the notes created with Noteshelf; other notes (manually added or sent from Apple Notes) are working flawlessly instead. the thumbnail doesn't get updated when the content changes the EN WebApp instead at least sees the updated thumbnail, but it still displays nothing as content of the note. funny enough... the correct revision is present in the note History; it's the second-last-revision. Too bad that Evernote shows me the last-revision instead (the broken one, that I don't understand why is even created) Their Evernote sync is so unreliable (sometimes it syncs, sometimes it doesn't). I'll probably ask Apple Store for a refund of the 10 bucks it costs. The sad thing is that I cannot find a working product among all the choices there are... I dunno if I'm being particularly unlucky here. Unfortunately Goodnotes doesn't allow to edit notes that were already synced. I tried that workflow in the past, but too often I find myself editing notes, once, twice, many times.
  2. I’ve got to a point where all those handwritten images in Apple Notes take a big portion of my iPad space…. And when the space finishes, Apple Notes doesn’t tell you anything, lets you keep editing… until it just crashes when trying to save and loses all the changes done! ( I’ve lost almost 1 hour of drawings and notes, when this happens; and it’s gaining more and more as the free disk space diminishes). It’s all synced to iCloud…. but it’s useless because it doesn’t spare space on the device. 1TB on cloud but not in my device makes the additional space useless because it SYNCS instead of BACKUPping or OFFLOADING (keep only on Cloud, download in demand). Also, there’s no way to keep the Apple Notes over OneDrive, that would support off-load; only iCloud is supported. Otherwise Apple Notes would be the easiest, faster loading, most stable and bug free app of Al the other options. So frustrating…
  3. Yes, I’ve read the same, so it’s paramount to use PNGs instead. I still have to find an app that syncs to Evernote and that DOES NOT block the note Evernote dose as “view only”. Really a pity. Also it would be really important to allow editing the images from this app; by only “sharing” a sketch to Evernote is going to always create a new note, rather than editing the existing one. It’s also a not sustainable pity
  4. Anybody found any sustainable solution? It makes no sense they made it read only, in an app that is all made for editing.. also they don’t let you know and it’sa bad surprise when needing to make changes. It’s absurd that they decide it’s read only and we have no option to make it editable… This wasn’t happening previously. i think they changed the note format or the images format, i see HTML stuff while Evernote didn’t finish to load the images from the sketch.
  5. Nope, it’s the same for me. And it makes no sense that i can’t modify notes directly from Evernote….
  6. On iPad, had the same issue. Suddenly ALL the scratch images created with the pen (I replaced typing with handwriting) couldn't be loaded! Solution: ensure the internet connection is available. That restored everything in a blast. Of course, that's pretty annoying, counterintuitive and making Evernote portability a fake-feature, given I might be writing while on the move, and I should NOT be required to have an internet connection in order to access notes created on the same exact device!
  7. As Premium user that stongly relies on the clipping ability of Evernote to store information, images and documents, I cannot risk to discover just after weeks, months or years, that Evernot did not store the information shown in a webpage/article. This creates a consistent damage to my work, and forces me (and any other user) to verify from beginning to end every single page that is being clipped, in order to feel safe that the content is actually being stored. We aren't talking big medias here, but of image format, as we have many since the beginning of the 90's. As (also) a software engineer I totally understand delays in delivery, but I strongly believe that 6 years without any fix is too much. The license is BSD; I do not see reasons to not implement WebP support. There was no update or roadmap about that. And honestly I don't think that premium users are paying for this negligence.
  8. Am curious what's your new ship? Evernote is a great app, but its lack of real encryption, and some other annoyances, make me look elsewhere.
  9. Is there a solution for this? I can't install Evernote on my working computer, because it indexes everything from my private Evernote account. It's a really common use case. There must be an option to prevent that.
  10. It is not a page problem. Web Clipper on Chrome (over macOS) doesn't clip anything anymore. At all. The clipper popup appears, I can select the content, assign tags, etc. But the Syncing will never start the progress-% bar, nor it will ever succeed at storing anything. "Syncing" will go on forever, till the tab is closed. Checking the `background.html` page of the browser extension I can see that the Javascript failure is: > Message did timeout In the Network tab of the DevTools over the background.html page I cannot see any request failing (404 or others). Everything has HTTP status 200, but the syncing reports timeout anyway. This is occurring since at least one month, and is making Evernot a lot harder to use.
  11. Since the sandboxing it is under the "Library/Containers" and "Library/Group Containers" folders, instead of the "Library/Application Support". Logs are in: /Users/<username>/Library/Containers/com.evernote.Evernote/Data/Library/Application Support/com.evernote.Evernote Database is in: /Users/<username>/Library/Group Containers/Q79WDW8YH9.com.evernote.Evernote/CoreNote/accounts/www.evernote.com/ The trick of pressing the Option-key works just if pressing the key before clicking the Help menu. That is non-standard respect to the usual behaviour on macOS. Hope it helps.
