I almost deleted my Evernote account before I found this forum and installed the Legacy version noted above.
I don't know what the hell the Evernote developers are doing (and I don't thin they do either) but legacy is so much better and faster. The Newest version of Evernote is simple not useable. It should be tossed on the heap. Start over! Take some notes from Ulysses or Bear. It's not rocket science. Speed is important.
