  1. I was considering seriously the new Lenovo Chromebook Duet for handling my note taking during trips and surveys. Than I asked myself: does Evernote even have a ChromeOS version?
  2. I am having this really weird problem with Evernote on my S10 phone. When I try to open a PDF file, from within an Evernote note, the Adobe Acrobat splash screen will appear for a brief moment, then the phone will switch to the Cyclemeter app, tring to open the PDF file with it. The problem still exists after a complete reinitalisation of my phone. I wrote to Cyclemeter developers about it. Then I realized that all the PDF files elsewhere on my phone, or in a Google Drive, would open normally, with Adobe Acrobat. Only the PDF files from within an Evernote note would have this very strange behaviour. So it does not appear to be a Cyclemeter problem. But just in case, as you can see on the screenshot, no file types are associated with Cyclemeter. Certainly not the PDF files. Any clue???
  3. An issue I always had: I often add a note using my personal evernote email address. For some reasons, unknown to me, these notes seem to decide which notebooks they belong to, and they do a very bad job at it. Can we have the program put them in the default notebook?
  4. Still doing it. Should I upgrade now? The latest upgrades were heavily criticized last time I checked, but maybe most problems are solved by now.
  5. After checking the startup folder and the different shortcuts I use to start the app, I see no clear reason (I did not find any "install shortcut") that may explain this. It seems every time I restart the computer (once every 2 or 3 days), Evernote reinstall.
  6. Hi. Anybody had this problem? Evernote keeps reinstalling itself, each time I restart my desktop. I am using 6.20.2.8626 (308626) Public. I did not upgrade to 6.22 yet after seeing posts talking about numerous issues. i do not have much time to troubleshoot things these days. Thanks, have a good day.
  7. You are right, it searches within the notebook, i was confused by the text appearing in the French version which seems to imply that it was searching through all notes. I should have tested a bit more. Thanks!
  8. Hi. Although I use Evernote all the time (32 500+ notes), I am struggling with the lack of consistency between the editions I use (Windows, web-based, Android). How is it possible to search within a notebook in the Android client? It seems there is no way to reduce the scope of the search, while you can easily do that in the web-based and Windows client. Also: is it possible to merge two notes in the web-based client and the Android client?
  9. Don't worry, my English is what it is (not my 1st language). But to be absolutely precise: I mean searching (or filtering) a tag from inside a notebook. With 33K notes, I have to combine techniques.
  10. Well, in Windows, while in a notebook, you have this tag icon on the top of your notes list that act as a filter. This is a very useful behaviour and I would be very happy to see this tool in Android.
  11. I have a simple question: when u open a notebook, can u filter it with a tag, like u do quite easily in Windows? I could not find a way...
  12. It is the most unbearably slow software I have on Windows. By far. I used all the recommanded tricks: re-installing, indexing, etc. It is just a terrible experience. I have to use the firewall trick to make it somehow useful. ( )
  13. My iPhone 6s just died on me. And I am seiously considering the switch to a Samsung S10. How is the performance of Evernote for Android? I have more than 31,000 notes. And the Windows client is seriously flawed, from my point of view. Still, Evernote is an integral part of my workflow.
  14. Can u guide me through this? I'll do anything hat can speed things up. I have close to 30K notes and I am one of the users complaining a lot about the slowness of Evernote.
  15. There is a thread on the subject. https://discussion.evernote.com/topic/102926-windows-client-slow/?page=2 and another one...
  16. Please... make this software run instead of crawling... This is all I ask from now on. The features are already there.
  17. So... if you replace the Trash tag by Archive, at least mentally, you get the Archive solution a lot of people are hoping for? Seems too good to be true.
  18. This is exactly why it is interesting, from my point-of-view. And they can be restored to be fully featured again. Do they lose their tags and other meta-data?
  19. Did not think about it! Yes, it seems to share a lot with the EN trash.
  20. I have a little workaround for this same problem I used to have. Just like you, I have a stack named Archive. Now, let's say U have this Project Stack, called PROJECT X with notebooks inside this stack, named "X - BUDGET", "X - CALENDAR", "X - CREW", etc. When the project is over, I take all the notes inside "X-BUDGET", and I tagged them "X - Budget" all the notes inside "X-CALENDAR", and I tagged them "X-Calendar", etc. Then I move a all the notes (properly tagged) from all the notebooks inside the "PROJECT X" stack in a new Notebook called "PROJECT X (arch)." And I move this notebook ("PROJECT X (arch).") in the ARCHIVE stack. May looks complicated, but actually, it takes me about 15 minutes to close a project of 2000-3000 notes and archive it this way. This way it is very easy eventually to "recreate" the old hierarchy of notebooks. Or to access the notes according to their previous notebook .
  21. You know, this is still happening. It just did. Adding a PDF file to a note. The note preview shows it. But the note itself: nothing.
  22. And it just happened again. While joining a file to a note: the app quit. Upon returning: the preview of the PDF file appears in the Note list but in the main window: nothing, although the status bar indicates it should be there. .
  23. The two things I really would love to see in Evernote: archive switch favorite switch Yes I am using tags for both. But at almost 22K notes, the lack of a real archiving functionality is really showing.
