Thankyou for your reply. I have an Apple Mac and have the Evernote app on here. I have all my Notes filed according to subject. The Action File I regularly update for each item. I open the item and at the bottom of the item is a bell which denotes the date. I click on this and it should open up a calendar where i can update the date. Occasionally this works, in most cases either the calendar does not appear at all, or it freezes (there is a wheel that spins round showing that evernote is working on something but then nothing happens. Is this a bit clearer?
