  1. Thanks! I was coding up my previous reply before I read yours. I have other pc's including windows 7 pro, and windows 10. I don't need nor want any changes to the xp evernote which is exactly what I want. Been in IT for 50 years. Thanks! I just changed the account password on web version, and my xp can still log on, so I guess I'm good for now. I already paid, so I'll let the account ride, and maybe I'll decide to use it on another pc in the future. Thanks again for your help. The info about the early May syncing method change seems like when mine stopped, and that is good to know, and maybe others can read this thread and know what their problem is. Lucky it didn't mess with my local copy.
  2. Thanks! I shutdown completely at least once a day, and have done multiple restarts. I'm thinking that there is some connection issue that they have caused by changes. Never got any warning. I'm betting they don't know, there is no way to tell them, and they probably don't care anyway. I'm a cheap legacy user, and I guess they really don't care. Anyway, if i cancel my evernote account, can I be sure I can still use the evernote on my machine, as I've been doing since the connection issue? I use a cloud backup program that is set to include all the evernote files, and db, so backup is possible without the evernote account.
  3. My old evernote on windows xp stopped being able to contact the server a couple of weeks or so ago with no notice at all (might be a month). I just now again spent hours doing research since I can use my old evernote locally since everything is on my pc, but I was using the account (clooud (LOL)) for backup. I think evernote made a change in May or June that shut us down, and most people don't have a way to let anybody know since there seems to be no way to contact evernote at all any more. I am a premium user many for years, and was renewed for my yearly membership at $69.99 on May 1. I had no idea about evernote's misfortune. I got in when it was THE THING. I chose it wisely since the old version keeps all my notes in my pc. It just paid off so far. Most people are never going to find info on their problems since evernote requires people to log on now (maybe did before, don't know) to read these posts, due to a google search, I was sent to a login page. I finally after days, did log in and found your post which looks like is wrong in my case. I have made no changes at all. How can we find out if they changed servers, cloud, ip addresses, or whatever, or just shut us out? Thanks!
  4. Uh, I think he means that he can see and arrange notebooks on his computer screen, and nest them. They take up a spot in perceived and visual reality, like putting things in a file cabinet and folders, instead of just going around the office, and marking the stuff with tags, then maybe having various lists of the tags that he can look at and search. Some have great spatial memory, not for lists. He said that was how he perceives things, and he might be really good at it. He said that tags seem to be abstract to HIM. By abstract, he means that they do not have a position in space that they occupy. They are not an object that can be positioned, etc. He did say that is how HE perceives it. Windows had folders that nest, and that is what many people are used to, surely. Maybe it was wrong. Don't know. So, tags give a way to cross reference items in all file cabinets and folders whether related or not, but many still want their file cabinets in a building of multiple offices, in an office area with multiple rooms, in a filing room with multiple cabinets, in a file cabinet with many folders, in a folder with many notes, and some of those notes are clipped together.. Spatial. The items exist in space. They have a specific location. (By the way, I'm thinking that the folders we see in the UI, only appear to exist, as simulated by the UI, but they do APPEAR to actually exist.) meanwhile, back onto the subject of nested notebooks ...
  5. To the original poster and others, Please repost your request/case for nested notebooks, so others can agree with it or not. Good Luck!
  6. jefito, Did you not read the posts? Did the posts show bad attitude? Just sayin. In particular, some posts in the sync thread a day or so ago, but in this thread... There are others, but I think these three answer all of your points. Take it or leave it was also included. I see that you were even quoted in the last sentence below. Interesting quote from a previous rebuttal, I suppose. *The statements below are quotes from other poster(s), and not my opinion/attitude at all.* Funny b/c it really doesn't matter what "Those of you who think tags are a better solution" think. What matters is how Evernote functions. ------------------------------- No one is forcing you to do anything. This is a software app. It does what it does. IME, we often have to adjust our thinking/workflows to adapt to software b/c no app is going to do everything that everyone wants. If it works for you then great. Otherwise, don't use it. (shrug) ------------------------------- The way EN has functioned since it's introduction in early 2008 up to & including today is no sub/nested notebooks. It doesn't appear this will change any time soon. As for me, I find EN invaluable and prefer to spend my time using as it is (and really, I've yet to find a use care where tags don't function similarly to sub notebooks) rather than boycott/protest a feature that may or may not ever appear. If an app works for me, great. If not, I go find one that will. As Jefito says, that's why there's chocolate & vanilla. And if you think sub notebooks are so invaluable, why would you possibly need to try to get those who are ok w/o subnotebooks to support your request? *The statements above are quotes from other poster(s), and not my opinion/attitude at all.*
  7. It sure looks like the "experts" responding to these threads (or at least a couple of them) are refuting people posting and arguing against those posting, instead of giving info. Also, saying things like: it doesn't matter what a poster thinks??? Don't use it??? You (plural) sometimes give good info, but what's up with this? How long ago did stacks come out? I don't think it was over a year or two ago, and It did not ship with the product originally, did it? So, how can some people strongly state what Evernote is NOT going to do? Have a nice day!
