Not a fan of the latest Android Update (10.79.1) 1218524
dbvirago replied to dbvirago's topic in Evernote General Discussions
Sounds right. I recall even before that for a few weeks, most or the time I started mobile, I would hit menu, or a note I wanted, and a second or two later, the whole thing would refresh. A bit annoying, but I discovered today that is when it reverts to the new Home page. It may be that it is a home page for people that didn't like widgets, but hopefully it will be an option in the future. The scratch pad may be related to the refresh. Frequently on mobile, that is what I touch first to make a quick entry. Then it refreshes, perhaps saving the version I touched. Why it just surfaced today, I can't say, but I'm going back to the Android widget for quick entry until this gets sorted. -
It always comes up in what it now calls the Home Page. I have to go to the menu and click on My Widgets. I thought the whole purpose of the home page was to have your widgets front and center. Haven't figured out a way to get it back as a default. If I reopen soon, it will be where I left it, but after some period of time, it resets to the new Home page 2nd problem, and this could have been some sort of anomaly, I suddenly had about a dozen 'conflicts' on the scratch pad, all of which were empty.

Can't open Evernote in Windows
dbvirago replied to martin@memoriapress.com's topic in Evernote General Discussions
Just started getting the same message just now. Edit: After clicking Quit and Restart 3-4 times, program started as normal. -
Customize Home Page on Windows Desktop
dbvirago replied to dbvirago's topic in Evernote General Discussions
Sorry, Windows 10. Edited the post and forgot to put that back in. You are correct the panel if fine. I was looking for the ability to customize the widgets. I wasn't seeing the mouse over events on the individual widgets. All good. Nothing to see here. -
Haven't been in there for a while, so not sure when this happened, but below is what I get when I click Customize.

Cost of Evernote almost as much as Netflix?
dbvirago replied to Easterjeff's topic in Evernote General Discussions
I'm not familiar with Netflix. What does their free plan look like? -
Denis, every time I do a manual export it works fine. Every time I try to run it on a schedule, I get some variation of below soon after it starts. Same external SSD drive used in both cases.

Okay, then I'll definitely restrict it to enex or html. I assume that will make it faster? It took about 75 hours the first time. I'll may drop down to twice or once monthly. That's a lot of recourses to tie up for 3 days+ every week. Please let us know when you have incremental backups. Edit: It also occurs to me to uncheck archival notebooks. Would those be left alone on my backup drive if a future backup excludes them?
-
I'll see how the next one goes. Maybe I alternate between enex and html.

I've had the product for a few weeks, but haven't had time to complete a full backup. With 13K notes, I am currently at 30 hours and counting. Part of that is the frequent Quota Reached stalls. I am assuming on subsequent backups only changed notes or notebooks are backed up? Also, to someone that mentioned it only created an .enex of each notebook, mine is also creating an HTML for each notebook. This would be much more useful if for some reason, EN was unusable. But so far, it's easy, just time consuming.
-
Yep, stuff happens. For me it will be how and when they respond that is important.

"Syncing temporarily paused."
dbvirago replied to Dave-in-Decatur's topic in Evernote General Discussions
Just checked mine. Nothing I've done on my other machine last 24 hours has synced to this one. Web client non-responsive. -
Been getting the sync error all morning on Win client. On Reddit, people are posting from all over the world that it is down. Currently in Atlanta, the web client login page comes up but is very slow. After login, page has been loading for several minutes and eventually errors out. Functionally, my client is fine, and I've been working on two different machines. I'll see how syncing works or not later.

I did a search, but only found once reference to it in Mac. Since the last update, my internal links fail 95% of the time. When I click on one, it churns for a second and goes to the home screen. As a test, I changed one link to some random string and got the same behaviors, so I assume the query is failing at the database. I have tried recreating the links, but no help.

I went back to TickTick for a few months as the Android treatment of tasks was unusable. The widget still doesn't sync in a timely manner, but my more immediate problem is recurring tasks. Almost all of my tasks are daily and weekly recurring. About 20% of the time, when I complete a task, it goes wonky. The banner pops up showing the next instance, and it appears on the task list. But within a few minutes, it disappears. It will then be found in complete tasks. If I click on it, it still shows the correct next instance, but completed. If I uncomplete it, it will reappear, but at the original date/time. Sometimes it takes several tries for it to stick. In some cases, I have to delete and recreate the task. Anyone else? Any ideas?

Evernote's "exciting news"
dbvirago replied to Dave-in-Decatur's topic in Evernote General Discussions
I wonder how of this was Bending Spoons (anybody remember Uri Geller?) looking for a major(ish) player to acquire, or Evernote throwing in the towel and admitting they are over there head. In any case, I've had one foot out the door for over a year and my data is fully in two different apps. As always, I hope EN pulls it out as overall, it is the best at most things but IMO, at this time, mobile, specifically Android is a major weakness. I hate to think this means they are starting over again. -
Ongoing note conflicts — and problems with Evernote support
dbvirago replied to mlenaghan's question in General Technical Issues
Came back to check on this thread after my biweekly test to see if EN was working yet. It's not. Had multiple sync issues yesterday with conflicts, including one where an edited note had a conflict with an empty, unedited note. There are a lot of suggestions here on workarounds and steps to take to ensure that things get synced, but that's not our job. That's Evernotes job and they have failed at it for over 2 years now. I'm using Nimbus for mobile now because it works. But I have also used Notion, and ClickUp over the last two years. In my office, I have two computers for different purposes, but they both use whatever note taking app I am on. With Nimbus, Notion, and ClickUp, I can open the app on both computers and two Android devices, edit a note and watch the edits sync on all 3 other devices within seconds. That's what sync means. That what sync has meant since the 90s and that's what sync used to mean with Evernote. I don't have to wait until something happens to work on the other computer. I don't have to swipe and dig into menus to force a sync. I don't have to bring up the web version of those apps to make sure the sync got that far before I move to the other device and wait for another sync. I don't have to uninstall and reinstall. I don't have to delete my data and reload it. It just works like it's supposed to. Until Evernote does again, I agree with some posters above that state that EN is now a one device product. -
Evernote voor Samsung watch 4
dbvirago replied to JosienS's question in Evernote for Android Requests (Versions 10.0 and above)
I hope they don't try. They're spread too thin trying to support 4 platforms already.
