Concise and to the point. Well said.

I think at this point the thread is more accurate with the "request" title, so I've made that change. (It still makes clear that the ability to select the displayed image is not currently available.)

Welcome to the forum (and to the world of internet forums), mactease! I think: —If you're a premium user, and this note was synced, with the text you're looking for, sometime in the past, you should be able to recover it. Go to "Note" in the menu bar, then "Note History..." and you'll see options of past versions that you can recover. —If you're a free user, you're SOL, since note history is a feature offered only to premium users. But if I'm wrong I know someone will come by soon to correct me. Also, when you say you "'found' the evernote data back up from a day ago (no easy task!!). But even going back in time does not seem to recover the text from that note," how are you trying to open the note/access the data? If you truly backed this up before deleting the text, I don't understand how the contents of the note at the time of the backup are deleted or otherwise inaccessible.

Welcome to the forums, s.mackesey. I haven't used this program, since I don't need what you're asking for, but you could try out Desk in the Clouds (newly available, it seems, for Mac as well as Windows). If you want more information on Desk in the Clouds, search the forums, since users have described it in other conversations.

You're not doing anything wrong. Stacks can only be one level deep. If you need more than that, you might try tags. They're not identical, and they don't replicate the folder structure so many users are used to from their OSes, but they're far more flexible in Evernote. I highly recommend organizing with tags over notebooks or stacked notebooks. Here's just one conversation on the matter that you may find helpful:

Welcome to the forums, Got2bFree. Currently, no. Sorry. I've changed the title to show that you want this feature.

I'm not sure exactly how best to search this, but GrumpyMonkey has posted a lot in the forums about how Evernote could/should offer a lot more options, and Evernote employee dlu has made pretty clear that Evernote usually wants to make choices internally and not provide options. Sadly for those of use who want more control, it seems that we're more likely to get fewer options than more over time.

Actually, it looks for a large square image, to avoid headers and banner ads and the like. If it displayed the first image, on web pages it would often display headers, which I imagine most users wouldn't want. (Since most of my notes are web clips, that would be very unhelpful for me.) Better would be some way for users to choose which image is displayed.

Welcome to the forums, eat_chocolate? Which window are you talking about? Would you be willing to share a screen shot?

I don't use card view and haven't heard Evernote speak about this. But in snippet view, the formula is that the image with the "largest smallest" dimension is shown. This means the image whose smallest dimension is the largest of all images' smallest dimensions. Here's a fuller explanation: http://discussion.ev...g-a-thumbnail/.

What do you mean? I use ifttt, and it adds tags automatically, which is how I organize my different feeds.

For people with more than one notebook: When "All Notes" are selected in the Left Panel, all notebooks are searched. Yes, that's what I hoped to make clear in the next sentence:

I have ~9,000 notes in one notebook, and I recommend trying out that setup. Notebooks are very weak for searching, since you can't search more than one notebook, and you can't remove individual notebooks from your search. (That is, of your 28 notebooks you can only search in one of them or in all of them, not in 2 through 27, unless you create stacks just for the purpose of searching.) Tags let you search any number of combinations that you want. And you never have to think, "Does this note belong in Notebook A or Notebook B?" With tags, you just tag it with both. If you're interested in trying to switch to a tag-heavy, notebook-light structure, we're happy to answer any questions you have about this. You might also want to search the forums for more about this. Here's one conversation to start with:

Thanks. That's helpful and interesting.

Well, probably pretty fundamental from an Enterprise perspective. From what I can tell Enterprise views aren't overly represented on here, for whatever the reason. A view I'm coming around to is that a shared notebook should be treated (from a feature parity perspective) like any other client. IE, if you can do X in a notebook, on any platform, you should be able to do that in a shared notebook. That's presently not the case, because of the way we started out, as a personal service, but the continuing interest from group accounts is making the need for administrative flexibility in the shared client more salient. Thanks so much for this insight, Geoff. It would be great if Evernote staff would share their developing thinking (as you've done here) more often—not even or not at all related to concrete plans or projects in the works. I know you're not speaking for the company here, so we shouldn't take your "coming around" as a sign of what Evernote will definitely do in the future, but it's still really helpful and interesting to hear things like this from those of you on the inside. To push a bit on this particular topic, again noting that I know you're not speaking for the company—well, are you speaking for the company in suggesting that at least some people at Evernote may be starting to take longer looks at enterprise clients and away from "the way we started out, as a personal service"?
