New2evernote-sd 0 Posted October 8, 2016 Author Share Posted October 8, 2016 sure! I have created several Notebooks for my business which I want to be able to share with some of my associates. I edit and create notes then all of a sudden Then all of a sudden a lock appears on the right side of the note book. it says "this note is read only" I did not change the setting of the note or the notebook so i am not sure how it changed. btw this only happens in my business notes not personal.

eljayceo 0 Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Having the exact same issue as @New2evernote-sd Certain notes and notebooks in my business account are read only. I can edit them on iOS app but not from WIN desktop. Has anyone come up with a fix for this? Link to comment
Morgan G 1 Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 I'm having the exact same issue. Specific notes are read-only in the desktop client. Searching some more, I found this: https://dev.evernote.com/doc/articles/read_only_notes.php This is apparently by design. Somehow, the contentClass attribute is being set on the note. You'll have to edit in an Evernote app that supports the note's contentClass. Link to comment
