Passphrase not working on mac computer


Recommended Posts

Hi I have been using evernote for years and certainly know the password to decrypt text.  Today I went to insert the passphrase and get .. the passphrase you have entered is incorrect.  Yet when I use the passphrase on my iphone, it works. Using Evernote version 6.10 on OSX El Capitan 10.11.6

Any help would be most appreciated.

I have similar problem.  I put in a trouble ticket on Friday but have not heard of any new news.  It is odd that for some reason the passphrase feature started working, but now it is back to not working.  Very odd bug.

Nothing in my inbox?

Are you logging in with the same email address that is associated with your Evernote account? Also, you might want to check your email account's spam/junk folder.

 

Update on this issue:

Our development team has included a fix for this issue in the upcoming beta for the next version of Evernote for Mac, 6.11. I don't have an ETA on when that will be, but keep your eyes peeled on the Product Feedback thread as it will be made available for download there as soon as it's released.

Has anyone tried opening the affected note(s) and copying the content to another note to re-encrypt it?  Delete the original afterwards.

That works sometimes @gazumped, however since it is an issue that affects the note editor (not just on the client side) the content sometimes will not decrypt on other devices or the web. 

If you can get the content to decrypt on the web, that would be a good workaround. Another is to import a previous version of the note from the Note History - I have had several users report success with decrypting the content in the imported version from there.
