For sure not everyone's cup of tea.  Hope you find what something that fits.

👍🏻👍🏻

Thank you CalS!

This really looks too complicted for me 😳

I don't think the new version will ever get Legacy's features, so I'll search for something else.

Well,  I'm finding v10.41.5 on Windows 11 is all I need for my activities,  plus it and v6.25.1 on Windows 10 cope with my 57,517 notes / 300+ notebooks and 1500 (or so) tags just fine.  Invest some time with Support,  make sure your main devices are thoroughly housecleaned,  and you should be golden...

99% of my attachments are PDF ones, so by default are displayed within the notes.

Legacy gave me the option to "save as attachment" all of them eith one click.

V10 requires a seperate click for every attachment in evety note...

I guess I'll give up 😊

Yeah, I faced the that dilemma at the end of last year, and went for door number 2.  Which is not an option for the faint hearted.  You need to be sure there is no path forward for you on V10 as there is some work involved, some of which is potentially cleaning up your data.  Glad I did it now but it was a journey  

If you decide to move on I would recommend before Legacy sunsets as the export tools therein are much better than those in V10. 

Thank you Cals 🙂

If you're having issues I'd recommend a Revo uninstall (provided you don't have any local -unsynced- notebooks) plus a restart / reinstall.  Evernote's server will even rebuild your Legacy database for you...

Exactly what I've done! (more than once...)
Didn't help ☹️
I guess I'll have to choose between 2 (bad!) options: Learn to live with version 10 (seems impossible!!) or find a new solution for nearly 10,000 notes , 20,000 (just a guess - maybe much more!) attachments and 200+ tags...

On the plus side Legacy is still here...

Not for me, unfortunately 😪
Several days ago it started crashing.
Could not identify the reason.
I'm afraid this is the beginning of Legacy's end ☹️
Installed ver. 10.41.5
Terrible!!

 As I've said (many times now...) I'll worry about changing from Legacy when Evernote tell me that it won't work after a certain date - I'm sure we'll have reasonable notice,  maybe even months' notice of that happening.

Maybe the time has come.
I have synced after adding a note (with 2 attachments) using legacy desktop app but couldn't find that note on the web 😠

> If you are still missing a key function, you can install and run the legacy client side by side:

Why would anyone ever do that? 

Because currently legacy is the only version that runs flawlessly!

Why should Premium subscribers have to put up with this "go back to the legacy version".  This is criminal.

Because legacy version is much better than the new one, and as far as I'm concerned, it's currently the only way to keep on using EN.

If you think that Onenote (for example) has no issues then you are wrong. Lots on their Reddits etc about loss of data, lock outs, slow syncing.

I'm no EN fanboy, but surely if it's that bad go somewhere else. Stop complaining here and use the forum for the "new super note app" to tell them how great the new alternative product is.

In my experience the alternative that does it all doesn't exist. Ian Small has been sensible in his interviews, the changes are for the many, not the superusers. I believe him when he says missing features will come back.

Keep the faith. Or tell me where the mythical better product is....

Reading your post might give the impression that I'm the only one who's complaining here...
Just read all the posts and tell me how many users complain?
Tell me also how many users say they're going somewhere else, just looking for the best place to go.
That's exactly what I'm doing!
The fact that I failed once doesn't mean I have to fail again...
Btw, I don't need any extra features.
I need a very simple application that works flawlessly!!
If EN would continue to support Legacy, just as it is now, that would be all I need!

Every new post I read makes me understand that the sooner I run away - the better...

And what has been your alternative of choice? 

I'm not sure yet.
I have thousands of files, so I'm considering Google Drive, but nothing (except leaving EN) has been decided yet.

I've never seen this. Did this happen in EN 10.8.4 ?

This is normal behaviour if the search string was filled in before: the intention is that you first type the search string and then refine via the tag filters...

 

I'm not sure because I've deleted Evernote 10 after all these problems and moved to Legacy.
Anyway, no search string was filled in before.
All notes were displayed, I've selected a certain tag which had more than 500 notes and only 17 were displayed.
And every extra trial a different number of notes were displayed, but never the right one...
During the years I spent thousands of hours inserting "all my life" into EN, feeling I found exactly the perfect application - just what I needed!!
Like others, I've recommended EN to my family, friends etc.
Completely trusted EN.
No more.
I gave up.
Looking for an alternative.
Bye Bye EN.

For example, day to day usage:

- You make a screenshot with web clipper and store your note in a safe place.
- After a while you decide to export your notebook for archiving.
- Later you import this notebook again... the screenshot is not shown  any more...

OR
- you annotate the screenshot. Same result: image is deleted... 

OR
you choose a certain tag which has more than 500 notes, but only 17 are displayed 😞

And if you try to reach support all they can answers is: working on it

Are they?
My impression is they're busy developing new features...

My note here is totally irrelevant,  but I got an intriguing update email from another company yesterday which is a bit of a model in emotional intelligence...  It's from the developers of JV16,  a Windows 'cleanup' utility.  Note the subtle sales message and the discounts at the end...

Evernote,  please note!

Unbelieveable!!
I envy JV16 users 😳

I'm still evaluating Joplin, but am leaning towards Devonthink. I'm Mac centric, so it's a viable option. Another option to check out is theBrain.

Thanks

There are some fixes announced with v10.6 for Windows and Mac.

Maybe you give it a try, and feedback if your problems were solved by this release. Would be good if such a PITA could finally be solved by updating.

Here's one example (windows)
One of my tags has 591 notes.
The new version displays 17 (and each extra attempt displays a different number of notes but never the right one 😞)

Thank you gazumped for your help and kindness.
Much appreciated 😊

 you do realise that PDF files are not downloaded to mobiles by default?  All my PDF files show as icons and need downloading to the device before they will open.  I installed Xodo Docs which will open the PDF files for me (the default reader option is in Android settings) 

Btw, when I open my mail and try to open a PDF attachment, it opens very quickly...
I'm not sure the file is downloaded.

Sorry, post interrupted...
However, what about docx attachments?
Are docx attachments downloaded?
I have no problem viewing docx attachments.
Anyway, PDF attachments show as icons on my device too.
When I click on the icon I'm asked if I want to view or edit the attachment.
If I choose "view" nothing happens.
If I choose "edit" I get an error "no application found to open this attachment"
How can I download the attachment?

Hmmn.  Sorry - should have read the details more closely;  you do realise that PDF files are not downloaded to mobiles by default?  All my PDF files show as icons and need downloading to the device before they will open.  I installed Xodo Docs which will open the PDF files for me (the default reader option is in Android settings) so I have no problem reading PDF files once downloaded.  You can print (or maybe export) PDF pages to individual JPG files if you wish to be able to see them in your notes...

No, I didn't know that PDF attachments are not downloaded to mobiles by default.

Is this also v10?  You can go back to the previous version (8.13) but you'll have to search for ways to install a non-Play Store download,  and disable the auto-update feature for Evernote if you want to keep using it...  https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/evernote-corporation/evernote/evernote-8-13-3-release/

Thank you, but I had the very same problem with older Android versions too.
Submitted a support ticket one year ago.
They apologized and asked me to wait until this issue is handled.
I'm still waiting...
