Email from Evernote re: duplicate account
DTLow replied to Drdamski's question in General Technical Issues
For issues using the support link, see https://discussion.evernote.com/announcement/72-issues-accessing-evernote-support-channels/ -
Which device/platform are you using? Which "new interface"? Bulk tag operations for selected notes is a feature on the Windows/Mac platforns >>Also, I would appreciate if you could share your best tagging system. The first tag assigned is note type For example !Type-Journal, !Type-Receipt This drives other tag assignments For example, receipts are assigned tags for !Budget and !Vendor I prefix tag names to reflect hierarchy For example !Colour, !Colour-Red, !Colour-Blue I don't like orphan tags in my list I use tag:!Archive to identify archived notes; -tag:!Archive to exclude from searches I use tag;Actionable to identify actionable notes

Your example displays a single tag per note If a note has more than one tag, would the note be listed multiple times? >>Proposed solution: same as in Excel. I actually export the note data to a spreadsheet It supports various reporting features, including the requested sorted grid I include a hyperlink to access the note in Evernote "\"=HYPERLINK(\"\"" & theLink & "\"\",\"\"" & theTitle & "\"\")\" " I use an AppleScript (Mac) to write to a .csv file repeat with theNote in theNoteList set theData to return set theData to theData & (text 9 thru -1 of item 1 of theNote) ... set theData to theData & "," & (item 4 of theNote as text) write theData to openFile starting at eof as text end repeat Here's a screenshot of my receipt notes, sorted by tag, date, title

Tags are assigned to notes; not notebooks It's possible on Windows/Mac platforms to select all notes in a notebook and assign a tag Any particular reason? It's usually one or the other - I prefer tags

The database will be reloaded from the server Only note loss will by unsync'd or Local Notebooks -

Obnoxious Green 'Share' Button
DTLow replied to JRA's question in Evernote for Mac Requests (Versions 7.14 and under)
I've merged existing post for the New Note Button To indicate support, use the vote button at the top left corner of the discussion Personally, I have no issues with space for the New Note Button I run with a minimized sidebar; just icons -
Yes Which device/platforms do you have access to? I use a Mac with Applescript; also multi-select and block delete In Windows, sort by date; multi-select; block delete

Grammarly is a useful product, I've used it in my writing but how is it "the one feature that will make evernote whole" afaik The integrated evernote editor is "whole"; but additional features would be welcome I use it as an editor for notes

Multi highlight colours have been implemented on the web platform (v5.33.0)

Why doesn't Evernote support the paperless life better?
DTLow replied to Stefan Timm's topic in Going Paperless
Agreed - the integrated Evernote note editor has no focus on spreadsheet functions Perhaps a little focus on word processing functions; I see heading styles introduced in the latest beta versions. However, I don't consider this a word processing app I continue to use dedicated apps when I need extended features; with the documents stored in Evernote as note attachment files -

I wasn't aware of any plans to discontinue this Can you explain how you use "search by geolocation" The search documentation has this -
Nesting Multiple Notebooks / Creating Sub-Notebooks
DTLow replied to cswsteve's question in General Feature Requests
Evernote has no support for folders - the organization tools are notebooks and tags (note metadata fields) For "effective browsing", try using the notebook/tag trees -
The addition of p2p note synchronization is valid as a competitive advantage imho Your "data sync hub, not just notes" is not (neither was selling socks) 🙂
-
There's two troubleshooting steps Rebuild the search index Hold down the option key when selecting the help menu Full Sync Hold down the option and shift keys and click on the sync icon >> neither did installing/reinstalling the app If you have a corrupted database, installing/reinstalling the app does nothing
-
Why would you think a note storage/sync company should be a candidate for this? Evernote's business is notes Data sync hub is a different business and already addressed by various companies

I'm not clear how this applies to Evernote, which has evolved from folders to notebooks/tags On the other hand, many users are stuck in "files and folders" Now, back to the backlinks discussion I added my vote to the feature request posted at
