I have posted this as a feature request in a feedback forum. Please indicate your support by uprooting the request

This is a continuation of discussions from https://discussion.evernote.com/topic/66243-request-create-anchor-points-in-notes and https://discussion.evernote.com/topic/78911-inline-tags-workaround Please show your support for the request by voting using the buttons in the upper left corner

You indicated "not saved" and "not synced" which are two different functions. On my devices (Apple), "not synced" leads to "conflicting changes", not lost notes. I don't even have a save button. I have a sync button.

It is not a tree structure Many users are trying to emulate the the file folder structure used in the computer operating systems, or physical filing cabinets. IMO That emulation is more suitable to tags than notebooks. >>Nesting tags is possible in EN to several levels. But it is not a true tree structure. That is correct, although a recent update in Windows makes the emulation more of a tree structure (hierarchical inheritance)

A single note? Just wondering because the note also stores the completion date/time I could write a script to do this automatically, possibly triggered when I mark the reminder completed. I currently keep my recurring reminders separate in the Apple Reminder/Calendar apps. I also prefer their notification features .

This is three years old but I thought it might be of interest; never say never correction: 6 years old, sorry about upsetting people and thanks JM for correcting such a grievous error And to avoid anyone being further distressed about an off topic reference, please note, this article is about loss of data because of a hardware failure And please excuse the font and colour changes; it just pastes that way and I skipped over the "remove formatting" message And JM, take a valium. http://www.cnet.com/news/thousands-of-evernote-users-affected-by-data-loss/

If you can find older versions of Evernote, you might be able to do step upgrades to get to the current version. The only other suggestion is to open a support ticket and see what the Evernote employees can do. There's a link below in my signature section.

Are you really trying an export/import? Is it using the ENEX format?

So A and B are folders (like Windows filing) compared to A and B tags in Evernote and >>@Mata Hari: In a folder structure AB is not the same as BA where is in a tag structure they are the same Indicating using folders, you would have to copy the note to put it into both folders A and B

Can you explain that further, and how folders enter this discussion? So far we have Stacks, Notebooks, and Tags

I think you're right about the apathy. For me, the information I need encrypted, is encrypted. There are many third party tools out there. I'm not going to let the Evernote feature set prevent me from encryption, In fact - I'm not sure I want my notes locked into Evernote because I want to control the encryption/decryption. My preferred method is encrypted pdfs, using my Mac Preview feature. Its not the strongest encryption, but its convienent and the resulting attachment is portable.

On my Mac, I'm using top list view. If I expand the Reminder Selection to review reminder notes, I can drag them into the desired order

My approach has been a separate note for each day. I use a template to get started I try to avoid lengthy notes like your journal process. I also archive my notes in PDF format - it seems better protection against corruption. A disadvantage to my process is that I can't scroll down to see entries from previous days.

Evernote Apocalypse was my attempt at humour; I even added a ? However a recent discussion on Ransomware presented a more plausible scenario. Ransomware infecting your pc, and because of syncing also corrupts your Evernote Server data, along with all your devices

Its actually and incremental backup - all notes changed the previous day I backup everything, regardless of source At this time, space isn't an issue - so I don't have to be selective

Funny you should mention that. On the desktop platforms, if you're logged out of Evernote, you need Internet access to log back in. You have the app and data on your device, but some sort of call to Evernote com is required. My backup solution includes a non-Evernote solution to access my notes. I use an html export to a cloud server.

You might want tp think about organizing your notes using tags, and use tables for their share/local/offsite features The tags get shared along as part of the notes

I use an archive tag to exclude notes from my saved searches. If it was a big concern, you might want to open another account and move those NSFS notes there. NSFS = Not Safe For Sharing

I've never been hacked..... otoh, stupidly deleting notes by mistake happens too often I pay for health / life / car / house insurance ... and back up my data

Actually the HTML export is individual files for each note. You would end up with 40,000 files, with additional for attachments. Your EN database is converted to a more traditional computer folder setup. I'd recommend separate export/folders for each notebook Tags are embedded in the html, but I haven't figured out how to use them example: <meta name="keywords" content="!Hot Notes, !Journal"/

That format being .enex or .exb which is only useable in terms of Evernote Windows/Mac You might want to think outside of that limitation. My backup process includes both .enex and .html exports I don't think I would want to open another account - my interest is restoring the data in my current account. Also, the discussion focused on moving a .exb file around which is strictly a Windows solution. I use a Mac, and I don't believe its that simple for the Mac platform.

You are so right. If I had to do this manually, it wouldn't get done. I'm on a Mac and the exports are scripted and run automatically. This includes hourly backups of the data files by the Time Machine feature. And to be honest; when I need to restore my database, I restore from the Evernote servers. And to restore individual notes, I use the Evernote note history feature.

Backup > Disconnect Internet > Restore > Export > Import Sounds more complicated than just Export > Import I'm also using the export feature for incremental backups - daily export of changed notes. >>What neither of you have said is how one goes about actually using the saved clean copy of the Evernote files. Is that possible? For the Windows platform, the Evernote database is a single .EXB file. This can be backed up and restored. For the Mac platform, the Evernote database is a more complicated set of files stored in a folder, this can be backed up and restored (theory - I have not tested this) The folder is com.evernote.com on my Mac. >>Not sure what "links" are not preserved by export to an .enex file and re-import therefrom. Since I'm not using these "links" I'm not sure the issue would affect me. This is a major feature of Evernote - crosslinking your notes Also sharing your notes with public links >>I would be more worried about my folder structure - is that preserved by an export and re-import from the top level folder? I'm guessing you are referring to notebooks. The import function creates new notes in a new notebook; the notebook structure is not preserved and would have to be recreated. Users have accomplished this using: - separate exports for each notebook - preserving notebook information using tags

The actual search terms are reminderTime and reminderDoneTime See below the post in my signature for a link to the Search Grammar documentation Here's my current tasks saved search reminderTime:* -reminderTime:day+1 -reminderDoneTime:* All tasks with a remider date/time Exclude future dated Exclude completed >>what do you call "auto added / dropped" please If I have an note with a reminder date in the future; - it won't appear on the list - when the date is reached, it automatically appears in the list When I mark a note reminder as done - it is automatically droped from the list
