In addition to syncing to the Evernote servers,
my backup process includes an HTML export of Evernote data
This is a nightly export of changed notes, so versions of a note are backed up For one-of fixes, I rely on these backups
If Evernote fails for whatever reason, I can access my notes using these backups
If I'm missing data in a note, I can go to these backups and copy/paste the data
If the entire note is missing, I can drag the note from these backups to Evernote
For the most part, my data is restored but it will need some cleanup
- The title is maintained, but no other metadata
- This will be a new note, any previous links will be invalid
To augment this backup:
Each week, I redo my single full backup in enex format.
I would use this if somehow mass #s of notes got dropped from my Mac, then dropped from the servers in the sync process
My Mac has time-machine backups of the database folder(s)
>>How can this serve as a backup if you can't import the HTML files back into Evernote?
If Evernote fails to run for whatever reason, this is my backup for access to my notes
