Lost notes after syncing issues
gazumped replied to JMO12's topic in Evernote Teams Technical Issues
Usually a sign that you made a mistake logging in and accidentally created a new account. Log out and try again? -
True. After three years of increasingly urgent warnings, Evernote removed the old server settings. Your synced notes however are still on the server, and if your old app still works locally, you should be able to export any unsynced notes to ENEX files and import them into the account via v10. (There are a couple of threads in the forums here where the Legacy app is still working without a server connection.)

Fixed in 10.82.2 - and there's a newer version still I think - see Evernote.com -
Evernote for Win or Mac? Wanna buy new laptop
gazumped replied to Rafal108's topic in Evernote General Discussions
I suspect someone has signed up for a new account and wants to zoom through the first 5 posts being monitored before being unleashed on the rest of us - or someone is testing a bot to see whether it works... (but shhh - posting dumb stuff gets you monitored more closely anyway just in case there's any bad intent - don't tell anyone!) -
Evernote for Win or Mac? Wanna buy new laptop

<Sigh> AI botspeak? Really? (And this topic is a year old) -
evernote app version 8.13.3 no longer works
gazumped replied to kirscc's topic in Evernote General Discussions
Hi. What do you use your app for? If you're sending images or web clips to the app you can use your Evernote email address to share information from Android 8 with your account without needing the app. If you're looking up information from your notes I'm afraid v10 will not work with Android 8 however you install it. It will work with Android 9 and above. If you have an old device with a large enough screen you could use the web browser to view notes from Evernote.com -
Duplicate Notes - could you add time to date info?
gazumped replied to POS Plus's topic in Evernote General Discussions
Hi. I doubt it's a simple fix to add the time too, but please contact Evernote to suggest the idea - we're mainly users here. Duplicate notes should be something of a rarity since the servers were upgraded - can you give us some more information about where this is happening? Your device, OS and Evernote version would help, too. -
Collapsible sections coming to Evernote
gazumped replied to ferol's topic in Evernote General Discussions
Collapsed sections are new, as you can see. If you expand the sections and re-share, does that help? Meantime we're mainly users here - please contact Support so they can feed this back to the developers. https://help.evernote.com/hc/requests/new -
Can´t sign in on my tablet

Hi. Your English is very good! What OS does your tablet run? What version number of Evernote do you have? -
Blue dot next to Calendar
gazumped replied to Evernoteuser01's topic in Evernote Teams Technical Issues
Evernote will tidy this up when they can - mine disappeared days ago without me using the calendar link. -
Hi. The new UI is new and unfamiliar. GIven time you may get used to it. If you have any specific queries we'll be glad to help if we can. Meantime it's v10 or the competition. Your choice.

Assinatura renovada sendo que havia cancelado
gazumped replied to Maycon de jesus's topic in Evernote General Discussions
Hi. Please contact https://help.evernote.com/hc/requests/new for a refund. -
Ah. Those widgets! -I hadn't actually noticed, but I agree: there's no longer a specific reminders list. There is still a shortcuts list though so the searches may still do the job.
-
Hi. Not sure which widget you mean - it's possible to search for reminders with eminderOrder:* reminderDoneTime:* reminderTime:* So did you mean a saved search?
-
The reality remains that v7 was abandoned 3-4 years ago. No support, no upgrades. v10 is the only current Evernote product. And of course any user has the choice - if you can't work with it, you need to find an alternative. Constructively, if you do work with it and feedback where it's not working for you, Evernote may be able to change features to be more efficient. They can't improve things if users don't tell them where it's needed...

Organizing Research Notes in Evernote

Evernote legacy ending on 2024-03-23
gazumped replied to Alxa's topic in Evernote General Discussions
Hmmn. The 'old' Evernote had a team working on each OS - so at minimum iOS/ MacOS/ Android/ Windows/ Linux - producing code-specific versions of a central 'model' of a note-taking app. Some OS's allowed tweaks that others did not - Macs did not (AFAIK) have Import Folders, Windows did not have inline spreadsheet views. Obviously that's expensive - you basically have 5x the cost of the staff, plus random updates to deal with from each OS and browser version. Two of the major complaints from users were: Why does the UI look different on each of my my devices? and I can't pick a consistent font for my notes. So 'old Evernote went away and rewrote everything in Elektron to reduce internal costs and deliver for their users. However Elektron had its own tweaks and limits, and the 6th(?) Elektron team were taking years to deliver their code (It's a big app - and they probably had a learning curve). So for a first iteration v10 was delivered with a limited number of the 'most used' features. And went down like a lead balloon with everyone (including me). Embroiled from that point in bugs, complaints and feature requests Evernote forgot all about income and costs, and I'd imagine became a pretty toxic environment. Investors I would imagine, would start wanting out. Lets not forget also that the long running 'free' service, rather than being a constant source of source new business is (probably) a huge cost sink, and for historical reasons dozens of users are paying different 'grandfathered' amounts because their product no longer exists. There's presumably lots of extra code to limit their access to their own feature set. Along comes Evernote enthusiast Bending Spoons who want to see this situation fixed, for their own reasons. The 'new' Evernote team work to fix backend support issues, old code and missing features, and drag Evernote kicking and screaming into the 24½th century. US and other employees are let go (on, I understand, generous terms) to bring the whole operation back to Italy (more or less) under one roof. That's great for efficiency - it takes a couple of days to travel from Milan to the US - but maybe not the best idea to lose all that expertise. (It's just code - how hard can it be...) Since this is now a 2024 commercial operation and they're operating on 2018 funding levels, costs have to go up. Since 'grandfathered' users are an expensive anomaly (they pay less but add complication) they get added to the normal cost & feature structure. As (presumably) light users they have to make a choice - is Evernote now worth it for them? Similar treatment for Free users. So here we are. Evernote is what it is. Either it's worth it to you to subscribe or not. But it's not a conspiracy, or a horrible mistake of some kind - it's just natural development of a product which is still one of he market leaders with a (mostly) quiet user group of thousands? Millions? Since 'Spoons have their own users who are probably only now hearing about their new acquisition after some of the worst dents have been worked out, I'd be confident that Evernote will make it to that 100-year target they always had. It will certainly do me for the foreseeable future. -That history is about 90% fact and 10% speculation and 100% my personal view. You are, of course, entitled to your own perspective; but I'm still surprised by the time and energy being exercised here berating a company that actually seems to be doing pretty well by its users. Legacy is not coming back, and everyone has the choice of stay or leave. Evernote clearly didn't expect the storm that brewed in recent months, but I'm sure they'll work through it. Meantime I'm just another user (honest) and pleased to help anyone who has a (polite) request for assistance. Have a nice day... -

Organizing Research Notes in Evernote
gazumped replied to JackBDMN's topic in Evernote General Discussions
I'm now using the latest features to help when researching new areas - the collapsing paragraphs feature allows me to set up headings to categorise my reading, and I can copy/ paste items like quotes, URLs, images and text into a note under appropriate headings. Seems like up to 200MB of content can be collapsed back to a dozen headings for a top level view, and each one of those headings can expand to more headings, and each one of those headings... Basically I'm taking my morass of basic input and sorting it into separate categories; then I can look at each category in more detail and summarise the content to its main points, condensing a bucket-load of raw data into a few pages of useful information. As I started doing that, it was reported that large notes with many headers seemed to be slowing the system down - and I still don't like having all my data in one note where a mistake could delete everything - so I switched to use the new /New Linked Note option which again lets me type categories and save the raw data to a new linked note... which can itself link to other notes if there are more threads to follow. It does very much depend though what details your research entails, and how you prefer to work!
